Who Will Be Exempted By
Local Board

1t has been of considerable
interest to know what authori-
ty the exemption boards have as
regards exemptions, and the
cause for which the board may
cancel the service of a person
drafted, have been matters of
considerable discussion. One of
the most interesting sections is
found on page forty.nine of the
rules, as follows:
For the purpose of these rules
and regulations labor shall be
construed to mean Bodily or
mental exertlon. 1t may be
either physical or intellectual; it
may be professional, mechani-
cal, commercial, electrical, or
agricultural; and each of these
forms of labor may exist under
notifications or in combination
with each other. The means of
support OF the dependent person
or persons must be produced by
this labor, whatever be It's char
acter. it may not be wholly
produced from it, but it must be
mainly so. A dependent re-
ceiving support from a person
whose income is derived from
dividends or rents can not be
dependent upon his labor, but if
that income were entirely the
fruit of professional or physical
toll, then such person or per-
sons would be dependent upon
his labor.
For the purpose of these rules
and regulations, by the term
aged or infirm' parents is meant
those persons who, from old age
or infirmity. are disable from
earning the means of supporting
themselves and who by reason

Spirit of American Troops is
Excellent

American Training camp in
France, July 2O.-By tthe Asso-
clated Press -"Whenever you
write home, whether in a prival>.
letter or to any newspaper, tell
them we are doing finely anil
that no army ever had a finer
spirit or was more confident Of
winning"
Il have handled troops for 4
good many years and under
variety conditions, but never
had a finer set of men, never Il
more enthusiastic lot than now.
1t has been a revelation to me
to see the spendid spirit that has
prevailed since we landed and it
augurs we'll for the part Ameri
ca is to play in the war that her
initial troops take hold with a
vim that is going to prove ir-
resistable.'
The first quotation is from a
comparatively green trooper, the
second from a seasoned officer.
Both were made independently to
the Associated Press within a
few moments of each other yes
terday. Both illustrate the
wonderful esprit de corps pre-
vailing throughout The first
American contingent-an esperit
de corps which has evoked the
enthusiastic approval of the
French. The American SOL
dlerS as one mingles with them,
do not appear to under. estimate
in the slightest seriousness and
earnestnesS of the task before
them, but from the newest rocky
to the Oldest sergent they are
going through their daily drill
performing their daily work with
dash. vim and cheerfulneSs and
willingness that has come as
genuine to the correspondent
who spent the first two years of
the war on the German side and
with ample opportunities to wit
ness the perfunctory qualities of
the German spirit.

"Hindered by Bahnsen."

In submitting his report to the
Commissioner of Agriculture, Mr..
Cheatham states that he was hindered
in his work because of the refusal of
DR.. Bahnsen to let him inspect the
records in his Office. DR.. Bahnsen. he
says. claims that the records are per-
sonal property, while Mr.. Chcatham
contends they are state records.
In the correspondence embodied in
the report of Mr.. Cheatham, Mr..
Driskell, farm demonstration of Han

DIR. Bahnsen, declaring that the state

Kansas, which had been condemned
there, and had shipped it to Georgia
and sold it here. In letter written
to Dr. A. M. Soule, president of the

Driskell declares that he is afraid to
use serum from DR.. Bahnsen.
Il do not believe he would hesitate
to poison it with virus if he thought
he could carry his point" Mr.. Dris-
