ALASKA DRAFT QUESTIONS TO BE MAILED NOW About 90 Men Will Be Re- quired in Juneau or
 the First Draft
 for Army. IS MUCH CONFUSION Believed That Final Step in Drafts Will Not Be
 Taken Before
 June.
IS MUCH CONFUSION

Questionaires to the local regis trants for military service are ready for mailing and will be sent out at once pursuant to orders from Cap tain Hunt to the local exemption boards
 About 50 men will be required from the first draft in Juneau but il will be some time yet before the final drawing is made. Considerable confusion has resulted from the var iety of numbers that have been giv- en out and as yet the final order in which the men are to be called is not determined.
 The master list lately published will remain to be the order num- Der of each registrant but before the order in which they are drafted is settled it is necessary to await the returns of the questionaires and then the men will be called in or der of their classification together with the order number. So the pub fishing of the order number merely has the effect to notify each regis trant his numerical draft number and not the final draft order
 It is thought that the final step to the first draft will not be taken until late in June as it will take that long to rearrange the positions of the men after the return of the questionaires, which will be especial ly slow coming from the interior. The population of Alaska is esti- mated at 64,912 and that of the Unit ed States 105, 900, ,000 Upon this ba4 sis the Alaska quota is figured at 710 of which Juneau's share is about 50 besides 28 who have been cred ited with enlistment

AUTO ACCIDENT
ON MOUNTAIN ROAD
Mrs. Sibie SAMSON of
Dalton, Ga, Badly
Injured
BRAKES FAIL,
MACHINE WRECKS
John Howell, of Dalton,
Bruised and Badly Cut
By Flying Glass

Mrs. Sibie SAMSON. of Dalton,
Ca. was severely injured in an
auto accident on the mountain
road here Monday afternoon a.
bout 5 O'Clock. John Howell, al
so of Dalton, Ca, was also Sc
verely bruised and scratched.
They were members of a party
returning from visit in Tulla-
homa in a Buick machine driven
by ]. L. Buchanan, of Dalton.
Others of the party were Mr..
and Mrs. Frank Buchanon, of
Dalton, and MissNellie Shasteen,
of Tullahoma, but they were not
hurt.
They had stopped at the water
trough on mountain road, but on
resuming their progress down the
mountain the car became unman-
ageable and climbing a bank
turned partially over. the oc-
cupants were thrown out. 1t was
miracle that the car did not
fall on them.
The windshield was broken,
front badly smashed and tenders
bent up, but no damage done to
running parts of car.
Assistance was summoned
from Sequachee, Mr.. Howell
bringing intelligence of the dis
aster that had met the party, and
Surgeon Minor was hurried to the
scene, where the injured lady
was treated. The car had been
righted, some assistance coming.
and after the brakes were tight
ened, was safely guided down
the mountain. Mr.. Buchanan,
however, got another thrill in
starting out, as the car became
again unmanageable and endea-
vered to climb another bank after
another short but wild career.
The party left about $50 deter
mined to reach Chattanooga that
night.

$1,000 was the result of the even

not enough cream to supply the

Esteemed editor and comrades:
| will attempt to send in few
words from the best city in the
best state in the great United
States 1t is pretty hot here, but
that only reminds US of the place
we all want to miss when we are
taken from this old world to our
future home. They say there is
a much warmer place than even
Texas gets in July and August;
if so, | sure do not want to go to
to it. l heard a preacher say
one time the low-downest christ
tian on earth was the one that
had no higher aim in life than to
miss hell when he died. | am
willing to admit that it would
look better to try to live to honor
God and gain a home in heaven
where we could always be happy
and sing endless praise to His
holy Name than to just do enough
that we might miss eternal pun
ishment without a desire 20 have
the happiness due to one that is
willing and does live a life that
God requires of us. ...
There seems to be the hardest
fighting now going on that ever
has been, and our boys seem to
be victorious in the effort to SUBJ
due Kaiserism. God help them
to still be successful and speed
the end. We ere losing lots of
fine young men, but | hope that
our great sacrifice will be crown
ed with the greatest of success.
