WILL
 THANK WORKERS

A letter of thanks and apprecia- tion, signed by Woodrow Wilson, president of the United States, a souvenir to be exhibited with pride in later years to ones grandchildren, is to be received in a few days by all those who aided, without compensa- ton, in the work of selecting this states quota of soldiers for the na- tional army.
 Following is a copy of this letter: "The White House, Washington
 November 25, 1917. "To the Members of the Local and
 District Boards:
 You have now practically com pleted the great work of selecting the first contingent of the national army. Upon you was developed the difficult task of selecting those who can best serve with the battle flags from those whose duties and respon- abilities require that they serve at home.
 "The successful performance of this duty has undoubtedly brought to you a proud satisfaction in the privilege to serve the nation in the hour of need. Commentator can add little to such satisfaction, but would not be true to my own feel iIgs did I not extend this expression of gratitude to you for the success of this great achievement.
 Many members of the boards have felt that they should render this service without compensation and as testimonial of such action 1 have directed that a copy of this letter bearing a notation of such service be sent individually to those who have thus so generously served.
