the company for the hospital was,
Robert was good boy and always
lived the true Christian life" In one
of his last letters he expressed the
Christians hope in the beautiful
words, well mother, If we never
meet again on earth we shall meet
each other in Heaven
Robert answered the call of his
country Spet. 20, 1917, and became
member of Co. X, 353rd Infantry
at Camp Funston. He had many OPP
portunities of claims for exemption
on grounds of physical unfitness but
he spurned the suggestions saying
he was no better than the others who
had to go and that he would for
ever feel himself Stacker should
he not go. II could never live it
down" he told the writer just before
he went away to Funston, for my
duty to my country is to be consid-
cred paramount to the wishes of my

DICKINSON s.?
COUNTY WILL HAVE TO GIVE
MORE THAN SHARE IN
AUGUsT CALL
All 1917 Class One Men Must Go To
TT. Riley During Week Re
ginning August
Fifth

Dickinson county will probably
have to furnish at least S5 men for
draft call TO take effect during
the week beginning August 8. This
will take all the 1917 class one men
and some Of the 1918 class one reg
istrants
The local board received orders
from the adjutant general today
stating that all 1917 class one men
must be sent to PIT. Riley. Dickin
son has approximately rs men in
this division There are only roo
1917 class one men in Kansas now
and as the cali for August Is for
! 900 men, II win be necessary to
take some OF the 1918 men

Redistribution OF 1917 regis
TRANSIT is putting q large number OF
men formerly granted deferred
classification back in class one, and
the 700 men now in that class are
being added TO every day by this
method SO that II is possible few
1913 registrants will be- taken In the
call for 1000 men who will go TO
Ft Riley August 3.
The men who are called to go-to
TT Riley probably viii be assigned
to places in some regular army unit,
Maj Rain predicted yesterday, al
tho no information on that point
has been received from the war de-
partment
Unfair 10 Dickinson
Members OF the local draft board
say that this call is unfair to Dick
inson county. If the quotas were as
signed according to the population
OF the county, Dickinson would have
to give not more than is men. But
because she has rs men left in the
1917 class one list, she must give
many more than her share. One
county north Of Abilene has no 1917,
class one men left and so will not
have to give any men. The board
has statistics TO show that Dickinson
has already furnished more men in
proportion to population than has
the county north of here.
The only reason that registrants
are being taken this way is that the
officials want the 1917 class one list
entirely exhausted before the 1915
men are taken.
Any 1918 registrant who has not
been called previously by the local
board, may volunteer for this call
Credit will be given for all volun-
tary inductions and this will lower
the quota for the county.
