.sHER|FFS FORCE BUSY
ROUNDING UP |DLERS

The sherff's force is losing no
time in rounding up the idle popula-
tion of those engaged IN occupations
at the present time not considered
essential or productive. Friday night
five men were rounded up in the
restricted district. with the result
that three of the number will be in
Quoted into the army and two will be
called for reclassification.
In justice TO some who have been
getting their living too easily, there
have been several instances where
the persons have come forward OF
their own accord and taken steps that
would get them out of the idle class
and signifed their willingness to
work.
There is plenty of opportunity for
such. but for the work slackers the
Yagrancy law is to be enforced to the
letter. and it will be the chain gang
for the persistent offenders.
