QUESTIONAIRES READY

DOUGLAS, March 7.-Chairman F. E. Smith, of the local exemption board, has been instructed by the Governors office to proceed with the work of mailing the questionaires to the various registrants and the in- structions will be followed at once. While the majority of the addresses of the registrants are known to the board, many have left without giy ing any address and to reach them all will be a problem. Mir. Smith stated this morning that, in his opin- ion, only from 25 to 30 per cent. of those who registered remain on the Island. Many left immediately after registering last summer and others have been going ever since. Many left their addresses when they went away, but whether these addresses will get them now is doubtful.

MANY CHANGES FOR TIE BETTER
 ON WEST FRONT
Soldiers at the Present Time 10 Not Suffer the PrivationS of
 the Pioneers.

FRENCH FRONT, March 7.-The veteran of 1914 who has passed four winter at the battlefront. is apt to make ironic remarks a@out "feath- cred soldiers" when he hears newly joined comrades speak of the dis comforts of cold-weather canton ments. At the beginning of the war the fighting men were more than pleased to discover comparatively dry spot under the trees of forest or in a drafty stable or barn in which to pass their very rare and short periods of repose.
 Now all has been changed and everything possible is done to pro- vide some sort of comfort and dis traction for the men when they come down from the frontline trenches It must not be supposed that all the modern aids to hu- man comfort are furnshed to the soldier but his lot is luxurious com pared with that during the early months Of the war.
 In every village in the immed- fate rear of the fiehting line out of range of the German guns town major has been appointed, who makes il his business to know of every nook and corner where men and horses can be housed. When a battalion or a regiment marches in, everything is i'll readiness for it's reception. Regimental workshops and offices, stables and kitchens al ready are arranged, and billeting accommodations for officers and men listed in such a way that the sol- diers have only to go in and occupy their quarters. Sometimes they are lodged in the cottages, but in gen eral it has been found more con venient to place them in farm houses and barns, as the hygienic facilities in the country houses are far from modern.
 Every available grange and barn has been thoroughly gone over and made watertight by having it's roof covered with tarred paper and it's walls made draft-proof by thick crenelated cardboard. Electric light has been installed. every building provided with a stove and wash stands. Partitioned off is a com partment where the men may take hot and cold shower baths. In the nearby kitchens every requisite is handy for cooking.
 As to the mems personal comfort each of them is given trestle bed, with straw mattress, known as e. foot feathers" ," bolster, sleeping sack and blankets
 Tn the vicinity of the villages sports grounds have been enclosed and marked for football games, while numerous plots of land are set apart for truck gardening and generally cultivated by old reserv- ists who do not go into the firing line, have to content themselves with canned vegetables.
