SAFETY FIRST" ADVISES
THE STATE HEALTH BOARD.

Under the head of "Safety First"
the Michigan State Board of health
sends out the following bulletin:-
"At an early age practically all
people have become slightly infected
with living tubercle bacilli. This
fact need not cause alarm, because
it probably gives slight degree of
protection against subsequent infect
ion. Safety, however, depends on the
maintenance of high degree of or
ganic resistance to prevent these
latent bacilli from producing active
tuberculosis. This is not to be ac-
complished by becoming an athlete
but by the daily observance of gener-
al hygienic principles throughout life.
Keep the body well nourished; avoid
great fatigue; work and sleep in we'll
ventilated rooms, in freely flowing air
and spend as much time as possible
outdoors, but carefully reserve hours
for adequate rest as we'll as for re-
creation; practice deep breathing and
proper carriage; avoid other diseases
as far as possible; and be temperate
in all things. The State Board Of
Health will furnish free literature on
tuberculosis and other communicable
diseases"

SiXty-fve guests assembled at the
home of George Lamson Tuesday
night in honor of Jesse's twenty-frst
birthday, and because he is so soon
to leave for a training camp. Every
one came in their best humor, willing
to help pull off all the little stunts
that go so far to make or mar such
an occasion. Jesse, after rallying
from the surprise showed them pen
nants, pictures, medals, souvenirs and
relics gathered while on the Mexican
border during 1867. Then read
several poems composed by the
soldiers while in camp. The best
wishes of all the community go with
Jesse wherever he may be called and
we trust he may be spared to cele-
Crate many more birthdays. A neat
wrist watch was presented after the
bountiful Pot Luck supper was SER
we'd.

1T is EXPECTED THAT THE NEW
ARMY OF 100000 MEN WILL BE
DRAFTED SOME TIME NEXT
WEEK.
ONE NUMBER DRAWS $4,000
Each DISTRICT Has Set of Serial Num-
bers. When Number is Drawn
Every Man With Corresponding
Number is Drafted.

1t is announced that the machinery
for drafting the National army is
about ready to start. Some of the
states have been slow in completing
and forwarding the preliminary lists
and reports, but it is expected that
the actual drafting will be completed
next week.
The drafting will be done in the
war department at Washington. A
single jury wheel will be used, and
will contain but one set of numbers.
There are about 10000 registration
districts in the United States, and
each district has set of serial num-
bers commencing with number one.
Every man registered is given num-
Der, and when a number is drawn
from the wheel at Washington, every
registered man in the United States
who has that identical serial number
before his name will be drafted.
Every number drawn from the wheel
then will draft 10000 men, one from
each of the registration districts.
To draft 100000 men only forty
numbers need be drawn from the
wheel. Y
The first contingent of the new
army to be drafted will consist of
500, 900 men, but to provide for
enough to get that number after ex-
emptions are made, it is probable
that at least another 10000 men will
necessarily be drafted. Very little
actual information has been given out
by the authorities and there is much
conjecture and uncertainty on many
of the complex details of the draft.
For instance, every registered man
has number Now when a number
is drawn, will the person whose name
corresponds to this number be noti-
fled direct from Washington, or will
the numbers drawn in each district be
reported direct to the board for that
district and individual notices come
from them. This is only one Of the
many uncertain phases of the actual
draft.
The Board for Van Buren, county
as previously announced is composed
Of the Sheriff, County Clerk and DR..
John r. Griffin of Bangor. Just how
much this Board will have to do with
applications for exemption is uncer-
tain at this time. Actions of the
local Board as the writer understands
the matter, will be subject to review by
direct Board located at Kalamazoo.
We also understand that applications
| for exemptions must be made in writ
ing on special blanks provided for
that purpose, within a certain number
of days (the exact number to be an
nounced later) after the draft is
made.
We publish elsewhere on this page,
the complete registration list for the
townships of Almena, Paw Paw and
Waverly. We understand that other
papers of the county will complete
the other precincts. This list as pub
lished gives the correct serial number
for each man registered, and this is
the number that will be used in the
drawing at Washington. BY keeping
this list then, readers of The True
Northerner may know, when the
numbers drawn are announced. just
who is drafted from these townships.
1t is probable that the draft will be
completed and numbers announced be
fore next weeks issue.

ATTEMPT TO BURGLARIZE
MYERS STORE IN KEELFR

An attempt was made to burglarize
the Leon Myers store in Kecler on
the night of July 4th. An axe and
auger were used in the effort to gam
entrance to the store, but the intrud-
ers were either frightened away or
abandoned the job, for. they did not
gain entrance, and the tools were
found in shed at the rear of the
store. 1t is thought by the officers
that local talent is implicated in tie
attempted burglary.

CONTEST FOR TRUS ST Z f $
BROU CHIT OU T l. A X G. L ST
CROWD IN THE HISTORY OF
THE DISTRICT.
MEMS LEAGUE ABIG FACTOR
Selected Candidates and Put Up
Active and Systematic Campaign
for their Election

''Some schoolmeeting" was the
universal comment after the annual
meeting of Fractional School district
Number one, Paw Paw and Antwerp
held in the High school room last
Monday evening. Probably never in
the history of the district has as large
a number of people attended an an
nual meeting to participate in the
deliberations. Two hundred and
twenty votes were cast on every bal
lot, but this does not indicate the full
attendance, for fully third as many
more who were not eligible to vote,
were present as spectators.
The contest for trustees was re-
spcnsible for the unusually large at
tendance. The terms of H. L. Nc
Neil and M. H. Young expired and
Eo C. Hawley and H. C. Waters were
elected their successors. The "Men's
League" which is an organization
formed during the time of the recent
Tabernacle meetings, was an active
participant in the proceedings. At
meeting held last week, Messrs. Haw-
ley and Waters, were selected as the
candidates of the League, and COM
mittee of five appointed to interview
and campaign among the voters of
the district, and he work was done in
q most thorough and systematic man.
ner. Slips were also printed and dis
tributed among the voters by men,
bers of the League" at the meeting.
Many ladies of the district took an
active part in the preliminary house
to house campaign, and S5 of the 900
votes were cast by the fair sex.
Actions of the Board which led up to
Supt. Hungerford's resignation was
probably responsible for the contest.
Every voter of the district is familiar
with the facts and subsequent un-
pleasantness and the writer refrains
from reciting the details of the in
cident.
The meeting was called to order by
chairman H. l.. Mcneil, and the sec
retary's report read and adopted. A
motion that all ballots should be in
formal and without nominating
speeches was made by Glenn Z. War
ner and carried. The chairman ap-
pointed, F. N. Wakeman, C. w. Van
Tassell and Charles Lake tellers, and
after an explanation by the secretary
and the reading of the section giving
the legal qualifications of voters at
the meeting the balloting commenced.
The result of the first ballot to
elect successor to H. l.. Mcneil re-
suited as follows:-Whole number of
votes cast 220. w. ]. Warner re-
ceived 1; w. r. Sellick, 1 Clara Rem
ME, 1; B. F. Warner, 1; Charles Lake
1; H. c. Waters, 13; H. l.. Mcneil,
85; Eo c. Hawley, III. On motion
the ballot was made formal, and E.
c. Hawley declared elected.
The result of the ballots to elect a
successor to M. H Young was as
follows:-First ballot, whole number
of votes cast 22O; scattering 8; NJ. H
Young, 108; H. c. Waters 109; no
choice. Second Ballot:-Whole num-
ber 220; M. H. Young, 1OS; H. c.
Waters, 112. On motion of M. H.
Young the ballot was made formal
and H. c. Waters declared the un-
animous choice Of the meeting.
