YOUNG MEN OF SMYRNA AND

INTENSE LOCAL INTEREST ALL
DAY FRIDAY TO LEARN RESULT
Comparatively Few From Smyrna Are

Drawn for the First ArmY-Most
Smyrna Numbers Are Way Down
Smyrna and vicinity took decided
interest in the conscription army draft
Friday and all day long. daily news
papers and telegraph and telephone
messages were eagerly sought. Young
men who had registered, practically
laid aside business for the day to
watch results. In the evening they
gathered about in groups in stores,
news stand and public places and lin
gered long into the night to find the
order in which their numbers were
drawn. There was more of the solemn
attached to it than enthusiastic ex-
citement. Many young men knew not
what it meant for them. Mothers
hearts were sad as they patiently
awaited the verdict, 1t was not un-
til the next day that it was definitely
known what numbers were drawn for
the first army. Comparatively few
in Smyrna will be taken for the first
army although every young man who
registered was given his order num-
ber. Kent County's quota, after al
lowing for enlistments, is only Sc.
Smyrna, however. is we'll represented
in the State Militia which becomes
federalized and take it all together
Smyrna is well and ably represented
among those who are to take up arms
for their country. The next step tC
be taken is the physical test, the ex.
emptions, &c. This will take quite
while. How many of those drawn
for the first army will be exempted i:
yet to be determined but all those
having real dependents, no doubt
will be excused. The following ar,
those drawn from Smyrna, Clayton
Kenton, Brenford. Cheswold, Town

to be composed of 687, 600 men:

Almost every one knows that Sage

your hair. taking one small strand at

Flowers of Aliens Countries.

Mr.. Elmendorf, In his lecture on "Chii-

by the camera.
Snow flowers from Spitzbergen, hya-
cinths from Holland. papyrus and lotus
flowers from Sicily, coffee, tea and pepper
blossoms from Java. and dozens of other
wonderful blooms appeared and faded
on the magic screen. And mingling with
the brilliant floral colors, adding liveli-
ness and sympathy to the program. were
motion pfoeures Of the dance and play
ana fun enjoyed by children in all manner
or strange costumes and places, but with
strikingly similar human appeal and
winsomeness.
Motion pictures showing In a few SEQ
onds the slow growth of plants and fiow-
ers through many days were one of the
features Of keenest interest. The meta
morphosis Of q butterfly, the work of
bees collecting honey, the shrinking hab-
Its Of the sensitive plant, and "close-ups"
Of birds feeding their young were among
the other strange sights disclosed in mo-
ton films.

about q fai~e sen-e OF security that has

greater vigilance ON the part of the au-

should be recognized. however. that in this
important matter the government must rely
