LARGE INCREASE
IN ENL|STMtkTS
EFFECT OF NEW REGISTRATION
ANTICIPATED AT RECRUIT
ING STATIONS

Anticipating the presidents call
for the registration under the pro-
visions of the ~selective service act,
OF the 100000 young men in this
country who have reached their
t~wenty-first birthday since June B,
1917, when the first registration
was made, the army recruiting SER
vice in the San Francisco district is
preparing for several weeks of rec
ord-breaking business.
1t is expected that a large portion
of the young men who are to be
affected by the proposed registration
will volunteer their services to their
country before they are called indi-
v,dually. The government is at
this time offering every possible in
ducement to these prospective sold
iers, and judging from the large
number of inquiries which are be-
ing made at the San Francisco
Headquarters, $50 Market street,
hundreds of California and Nevada
boys will take advantage of them.
The aviation section has been re-
opened and many r wanted for
the cavalry, a branch hat appeals
TO the adventurous youths of u
country. The ordnance corps and
the quartermaster corps teach the
young men trades that are liberal
educations in themselves thus
affording the volunteers a valuable
training that will prove worth while
hen this war is over. The lure of
the big guns of the artillery is ap-
pealling to many, judging from the
nature of inquiries and not a few
are interested in the infantry, the
branch that goes over the top"

CLERK IN COMPANY STORE AT
LUNING is VICTIM OF
ACCIDENT

Myron Campbell, a youth 16
years of age, was drowned yesterday
afternoon while bathing in the big
plunge at Sodaville. He was under
the water only a few minutes, but
all efforts to revive him were fruit
less. Young Campbell was employ
ed in the store of the Luning Sup
Fly company, which is managed by
Rogers and Reynolds, former Gold
field grocers. With a party of
friends he drove by auto to Soda
Vile on Sunday afternoon for a
bath in the great tank at that place.
In some manner Campbell, who
was unable to swim, reached the
part of the plunge where the water
is over seven feet deep. His COM
panions missed him and saw his
body at the bottom and Immediately
called help and he Vas taken out.
A doctor was called and first aid
measures were applied, the doctor
vorking over him for over two
hours, but without avail. The
young mans father had left Lun-
ing recently for the east and he had
nc relatives in Nevada.
