for work which they have been CALI
cd upon to do to assist the local draft
board. The teachers will start to work
on Monday and will continue FOL cach
day until the work is completed. The
examinations yesterday were not held
ee scheduled owing to the. failure Of
any physicians to appear. It Is un-
derstood that all of the doctors were
otherwise engaged and unable to be
present. The men from the fifty call
ed who reported yesterday were dis
missed to report to the board on a
later call. The board IS preparing TO
send out a call to 100 men next week
for examination at the 7; NJ. c. A.
This morning Clerk John Hanson, Jr..
gave out the list Of names. the result

not possible to report on these exam :
nations as rapidly as under the old
system and the board has Just COM
pleted the final work on the names
of the men.

peal of President Wilson that they
assist in the voluminous Work OF card
indexing all registrants under :he
new system. This card filing consists
of filling in forty-seven facts on the
cards for each registrant taken from
his QUESTIONABLE. !.

card file will be classified by occupa-
tions. When formed, 1t will serve as
a basis Of information to be dispensed
by the provost marshal general to the
several boards whenever requfsftion
for men expert or highly skilled in
any class of work is made by the
adjutant generai-of the army under
Section 149, S. s. .R..--....-.---x.. r.
THE work Of cardfng can be dele
gated to one or more special volun-
teer assistants, to be known as Occu-

teachers and others who have placed
their services at the disposal OF the
boards.
The carding does not require special
prior skill in that kind of work. 1t
consists merely in the careful trans
cription of certain data from the
QUESTIONABLE to the cards.

ouested to summon and appoint i'm

assistants sufficient to dispatch the
