The term peace without an

men of draft age
will be responsible for ascertain
ing whether they are drawn in the
big human lottery. Hence the war
today asked that in
the next few weeks they be on
the alert, follow the newspaper
of the draft, and
when in doubt ask their local
exemption boards.
The provost marshal general is
preparing a boiled down announce
mem of draft requirements, so
that there can be no mistaking
the duty of the 100000 regis
trants.
This is what each registrar is
required to do:
Go to your exemption board
and find out what your red ink
serial number is as soon as your
board has finished numbering the
cards for the big lottery.
Watch for the drawing In
w hCh iihu ou'
whether you were drawn and the
order in which you must appear.
After that learn when you
must appear for physical examin-
alton.
In case of doubt as TO any point,
ask your local board about 1t.
These are the first steps the
must watch, but there
will be hers, and as every man
is taxed with the responsibility of
knowing requirements, it be-
hooves the youth of America to
keep close tabs on newspapers

morning to night is the program
America Sammies. The camp is
busy every second of the day.
Presence of a considerable num-
Der of recruits in the ranks with
Pershing's veterans of the Next
can campaign is the main reason.
But despite the constant work,
the whole camp is joyful at the
prospect that the harder they drill

and plenty of opportunity to battle.
The townspeople here have not
ceased m1-veling at the enormous
truckloads of meat taken from
transports and supply ships and
trundled to the camp each day by
the American motor lorries. There
is certainly no shortage OF food
for the Sammies.
