his heirs will gladly attend to the

1t is quite another matter to pre-

There are bills to be paid; the ice

dryman must be chalked off, and the
daily paper restrained from littering
the doorstep. There is hair to be cut,

ONE DOLLAR FOR HAIRCUT
FIFTY CENTS FOR SHAVE!

One dollar for a hair cut and SO
cents for a shave will be the stand
ard price if BARRIERS accept the sug-
rgestion Of the Barber Supply Deal
ers' Association, a national organiza-
ton which held its annual meeting
in Chicago. A statement made pub
lie in relation to the suggested ad-
vance in rates said: "Hair-cutting
has always been done. at too cheap a
price, and most Of our speople feel
that this Is one branch of the work
that should be paid for at a decent,
respectable rate"
The price of hair cuts In Newark,
Ohio, will be SO cents after Septem-
Der 1, while shaves will be 20 cents.
The local BARRIERS union decided to
raise the price1claiming it was nee
essary to keep BARRIERS from leaving
to accept employment elsewhere at
higher wages.

NEW DRAFT TO AFFECT $50, 900
KENTUCKIANS.

The first call for Kentucky selec-

ministration's man power bill, ex-
tending the draft ages, will be issued
probably the latter part of Novem
Der, Maj. Henry F. Rhodes, head OF
the selective service in Kentucky
said.
If the bill passes, as urged by the
Notwithstanding the ages
from Is to As years-Maj. Rhodes
estimates that between 10000 and
100000 men will be affected in Ken
lucky. OF this number, he said, U.s.
900 or $4,000 men will pass the ply
ical examination and be ready for a
call to the co1ors.
With the extension of the draft
ages, he said, there is little proba-
bility of deferred classes being called
at all. Youths who have attained
their twenty-flrst birthday since June
last will be called into service the
latter part of September or the hrst
Of October.
Ten thousand men qualified for
general military service will be called
the first week in September, and
there are enough men in Glass I at
present to MI this call.
In addition to this call for regis
trants qualified for general service,
between $500 and 1000 men held
for special or limited service will
also be called the latter part of this
month or the first of September.
About half of the number called will
go to Camp Wheeler, Macon, Ga.
Maj. Rhodes said he has just re-
ceived notice that S,159,000 forms
had been shipped him by the War
Department, and these forms must be
distributed by his Office to various
local boards throughout the State.
Plans for the registration next
month, as provided by the man power
bill, are now almost complete, Maj.
Rhodes said. Names of all the men
who will act as registrars in the f20
counties are now in his hands.
