"ThiS is my future wife," said the

frankly what YOU think of her"
The old man eyed the blushing

ton. The official lists have not
yet been issued, bpt may be in
the hands of the Darke County
Conscription Board some time
this week and the first call for
drafted men to answer for physi-
cal tests will come early next
week. The complete list of 1O,-
500 numbers drawn will be found
on other pages of this issue of the
Journal, in the order drawn, and
numbered as drawn, so that if
you know your serial number you
can easily learn where you stand
in the list and whether you are
likely to be in the first call for
the 263 men from Darke county,
this number being this county's
quota. The men will be called
for examination in the order as
drawn, beginning with No. l,
which is serial number, 258, and
so on until the quota is filled.
Preserve this list. as you may
frequently have occasionto refer
to it and the numbers may not be
published again. There was con-
siderable excitement and anxiety
in the city during the drawing,
large crowds congregating about
the bulletins, each registered man
being anxious as to when his
number was drawn and whether
he would be in the first call or
not. AS we understand it, it will
not be necessary for any one to
present himself for examination
until official notice is given.
However, any drafted man can
enlist in any branch of the SER
vice he chooses provided he does
so before being notified TO appear
for examination, and some here
are taking advantage of this or
der to get into the branch of SER
vice to their liking, recruiting
officers from Toledo being hele
tor that purpose. We believe
that Wabash township can lay |
claim to furnishing more men for
the first army than any other
township in the county on the ba
sis of registration. There were
92 registrations in that township
and Is of those were dlaWn in the
first draft last week.

They Help the Justices.

Each United States supreme court
Justice has a body servant assigned
to him, and this servitor is a sore
trial to many. The body servants,
now called "messengers," descend
from justice to justice: Several are
old men. Their usual attitude to-
ward their particular justices is that
of tutor toward pupil. They die
tate in all matters Of etiquette and
are generally bothersome. But
there's no getting rid of them.

have a cook who is a good one, but
who wants more money than you can
afford to pay him, send his name and
address to J. Lee Barnes, of this city,
who has been appointed chairman of
committee to rustic up $50 to 300 cooks
in the Southeastern states to prepare
the victuals for the soldier boys in
training at Camp Gordon, the great
military cantonment north of Atlanta
where $4,000 to 10000 soldiers are to
be trained for the firing line in France.
Mr.. Barnes is a hotel man and his
principal appeal for cooks will be ad-
dressed to hotel men. but he would be
glad to get good cooks from any source,
provided they are good ones and ac-
customed to preparing food in large
! quantities

but on account of the failure to get
the two-thirds majority required to
pass a constitutional amendment. The
membership of the house is 1879. Two
thirds of that number is 1876. Thus the
friends of exempting college endow-
ments must secure 12S votes TO pass the
bill in the house.
Georgia is one of the few states in
the union that does not exempt college
endowments. The measure now pend
ing in the legislature has been up sew

majority of the votes in the house. but
never quite two-thirds majority
While the state is unable to provide for
its institutions of higher learning on
par with other states against whose

STORMY SESSION Of
WO0OMEN CIRCLE ENDS

ATLANTA, Ga. Aug. 1.-The Wood
men Circle convention came to a close
yesterday morning at II o'clock The
entire day Monday and Tuesday morn
iIg was taken up with reading minutes
and the installation of an outer senti-
mel. Mrs. Coleman, of Pennsylvania,
was elected to the office.
The convention has been in session
continuously since Tuesday July 10.
and is the longest ever held by the or
der. 1t was also the stormiest in its
history. The first day showed a diyi-
sion of Al to q and the same strength
was held by each faction during the
entire session.
One of the most bitterly fought res
buttons was that introduced by the
press committee Mrs. Julia A. Sharp
and Mrs Minnie Vann Murrah. A res
olution thanking the Atlanta daily pa
pers for their news accounts of the
convention, was read and the storm
broke. Several of the faction oppos>
ing Mrs. Manchester, the supreme
guardian, declared that the press of
Atlanta had been unfair and untruth-
full, while the minority stood firm that
the press had been very liberal. The
resolution was voted down by a vote
of 40 to %. and two excused, one of
the latter being Mrs Murrah, the state
manager for Georgia.
