SM|LEAGE BOOK
PLAN APPROVED
II is a Wonderful Way of Helping
the Soldiers to Enjoy
Camp Life.

The snileage book system of providing
entertainments in the army camps will
start the operation OF more than sixteen
large theatres IN the Cantonments where
the drafted men were placed. SmiIeage
will also take care OF approximately 25
large tent theatres located in the southern
camps where the national guards are
trimming. Due to the smileage plan,
shows like Cheating Cheaters," f." 'Tnside
the Lines, Here Comes the Bride"
and Turn TO the Right" will cost the
soldier but % cents a seat, or five smileage
coupons will admit him at no cost, be-
cause the money has been paid by the
purchaser of the smileage books In
several of the camps, the theatreless
Tuesday nights will bring out special
companies who are playing in town and
who will be delighted TO furnish enter
talnmont TO the soldiers in the threates
inside the camp
There is no question about the need
OF this entertainment. Letters received
at the War Department Commission on
Training Camp Activities from the gen
erals commanding at the various camps,
where the theatres are already in opera
tion, praise smileage as solving one Of
the worst difficulties Of army camp life
General Johnson cpILBldfluiIG aJ lamp
Upton Just outside of New York City
tells OF the difficulties of transportation on
the railroad lines into New York City
and due TO lack of transportation only
a quarter OF the men can obtain leave
from the camp at one time. This means
that approximately $4,000 men must stay
inside the limits over Sunday, with
nothing particularly TO do to occupy
their time, since their is no drill on sun
day The y. NJ G. A. and Knights Of
Columbus furnish religious services and
from Saturday noon TO Monday morning
there Is long stretch which must be
filed with various kinds Of entertain
mcnt, and movie shows and popular
comedies, exactly similar 10 those which
the men enjoyed seeing in the city will
fill long felt want From the actors
standpoint, il offers wonderful chance
to combine artistic ability with patriotic
opportunity. Actors have met the
managers in fine spirit Of co-opera ton
and the War Department Commission
on Training Camp Activities, under which
this work is being done, through the
military entertainment council, has thus
been able to cut the overhead expenses to
rock bottom, which is the reason of the
low price Of admission charged TO the
soldier.

STATUS
IN THE DRAF I
Exemptions Revokable When
Agrarian Rejects Tilling
of the Soil.

The District Board for Delaware
having in charge the draft classification
on industrial and agricultural cases,
wishes to explain to the citizens of the
State its policy and Interpretation of the
draft laws where they touch upon the
agricultural interests.
The problem of maintaining and, where
possible increasing tho products on the
farms is of such Importance To both Della
ware and the nation that the District
Board will allow deferred classihcations,
thereby releasing men from the possibility
of early draft in all eases where ii is shown:
First, that the reglstrant is a skilled
farmer through several years Qf expert
cnce and practical work; second, where
the registrant is working on a farm of
such size and character of products as
would require the active services of all
workers reported for such farms.
If a registrant So classified IN de-
fcrred class by the District Board. leaves
the farm and undertakes work in some
other line Except for winter period when
service may not be needed temporarily
upon the farm. then the District Board
acting under its Interpretation of the
draft laws, proposes To Immediately re-
classify such reglstrants in the position
and thereupon will place such rogistrants
in Class l, subject to Immediate draft
When q registrant is working on a
farm, where the District Board decides
that said farm has an excess of labor,
taking into account the til!age acreage
and class of products on the farm COM
pared with the records upon the farm
and thcreupon places such reglstrant IN
Class |, the reglstrant can secure a review
with the opportunity OF securing a de-
fcrrcd clasSi cation by promptly trans
ferIng himself TO some other farm de
iicient in labor. In such case, the regis
trant should immediately advise the
District Board Of his change and ask
the District Board for review Ia dc
tcrnine whether or not be may be re-
moved from the risk Of immediate draft
and placed in q deferred classification
for the benefit of increasing the agri-
cultural products Of the country
All deferred classif cations for work
upon the farms of Delaware will bo
granted and continued only so long rs
the registrants are giving active and ener-
gctic service dpon the farms to increase
tho quantity Of farm products 10 the
utmost, and all citizens Of the State are
under patriotic obligations 10 report i'm
mcdlately to the District Board Of any
cases Of farm slackers within the draft
age.
The national emergency requires one
hundred per cent workers IN all vital
vocatiOns. and the District Board will
only permit a continuance of defer red
classification for farm service in each
case So long as each registrant continues
to do to the utmost his part on the farm.
The District Board desires this gen
cral policy TO be fully understood through
out the State Of Delaware so that one of
the most vital problems Of the war. namely
the production OF foodstuffs, may be
aided to tho utmost by the proper inter
pretations of the draft laws permitted
TO the District Board In the conditions
explained above.

his talk. The officers, all men, who but
a little while ago were active In civil

Washing Won't Rid
Head of Dandruff

The only sure way 10 get rid Of dand
ruff is TO dissolve it, then YOU destroy IL
entirely. To do this, get about four ounces
of ordinary liquid arvon; apply it at night
when retiring; use enough To moistcn the
scalp and rub it in gently with the finger
tips.
DO this tonight, and by morning, most, il
not all, of your dandruf will be gone, and
three or four more applications will com
pletely dissolve and entirely destroy every
single sign and trace of IT, no matter how
much dandruf you may have
You will find, too, that all itching and
digging of the scalp will stop Mt once, and
your hair will be fluffy, lltstrous, glossy,
silky and soft, and look and feel hundred
times better

TROOPS NEED TOBACCO.
II Comforts Them and They Require
Less Food.

Washington, Feb. lS.--The Use Of
tobacco by our troops in the trenches
plays no small part in tho conservation of
food, say Marine Corps officials here, who
estimate that from 25 to 80 per cent OF
food is saved daily in this manner. While
authorities admit the detrimental in
fluencc of narcotics, they assert that
tobacco relieves the nervous tension of
soldiers who are under continual shall FIRE.
"Early in the war;" declared Marine
officer. 'the French discovered that men
who smoke eat considerably less food,
and only recently the British food con-
troller issued the statement: The British
troops in the trenches must have tobacco
or much more food
