spent one night under his roof. and
then went to visit her mother for a
few days.
The report saw IN the paper"
said the bride of the president of
Danbury Fair. "was a great surprise

footprints to mark their passage.
When they struggled into Harbin they
had been without food for weekG
They were barefooted and their feet
were bleeding. A collection OF rags
served for clothing. and many had
died of exposure.

j. S. TO SEND MORE
TROOPS TO RUSSIA

American or allied troops, or
both, undoubtedly will have, a long
period of police duty in Russia after
the Teuton vacates.
In fact, 1t was hinted today that
the associated contingents may have
to be increased rather than decreased
when the boche hauls out the re-
mainder OF his legions- The problem,
according to a member of the general
staff, offers one of the most perplex-
ing features of the complicated "un-
serambling" process which Is now
held to be only a matter Of q COM
paratively brief time.
While the German has been evacua.
ting the Baltic provinces and has
stripped down his forces in the
Ukraine, he still has a wide belt of
influence and a considerable number
of troops in the territory between
the Gulf of Riga and the Black Sea.
Military authorities foresaw today
that IL immediate evacuation of the
Teuton is compelled, q reign of ter
ror and lawlessness might ensue.
Hence, there was some division OF
opinion as to whether this evacuation
should be compelled hurriedly or
gradually.
In either case, II was said that the
allied forces undoubtedly would have
to maintain order for a considerable
time until the restored regions could
get a footing politically and eeonom-
ically.
II IT is decided to increase the al
lied forces, their occupation will be
solely for police purposes, and 1t will
be made clear to the world that this
duty will be accomplished as speed
lily as possible, and the troops then
withdrawn Immediately.

Pepperman Begs Regis trants to Watch Papers for Information and Not
 to Call at Office

The local exemption boards have re- ceived orders from Washington to mail our questionnaires to the men between the ages of 1e and 37 who registered on September 12 and this will be done as soon IS possible.
 Secretary B. A. Pepperman requests that persons who registered on Septem- ber 12, and who have changed their residence since that time, keep in touch with the address given on their regis tration cards as their questionnalres will be sent to that address. As the local boards have not yet gotten their cards and records made out they have no way to record change of address of these last registrants.
 The boards will begin the work of checking up all available men in Class I. which consists mostly of men who were in deferred classifications and have waived their exemptions and been placed in Class l. This number in Bir- mingham is very small and the local boards must notify the department at Washington not later than tonight the exact number of available men.
 The entire office force of tho six To- cal boards are busy preparing the rec ords of the recent registrants and linn tied service men called for office duty will be used to assist in making out the cards and arranging them in alpha betical form.
 Registrants are requested to watch the papers for information given out by the board instead or calling at the office. as it takes the entire time of two members of the various boards each day to answer questions and give out information sought by registrants.
