To this end the Commercial club has issued the following statement:
 Tt was the intention of the gov ernment virtually to prohibit the giv- ing of all Christmas presents this year by refusing priority shipment orders on Christmas merchandise. In behalf of the public ana themselves, the retail merchants appealed to the war industries board. The appeal was granted upon the express condition that merchants everywhere do every tihng possible to induce the public to observe the following rules:
 Buy only useful gifts. except toys for children.
 Begin buying early, to distribute Christmas shopping, over October and November, which will enable the mer- chants to get along without extra help.
 Send presents by mail or express early to avoid congestion.
 Carry parcels home when possible.
 On behalf of the merchants the board exaeted an agreement that no additional help in the sales forces will be employed for the Christmas sea. son, and that each merchant will do his utmost to promote early buying and generally assist through adver- tising in carrying out the program. The whole purpose of these rules is to conserve man-pOwer. transporta- tion and other war necessities. The merchants must keep faith with the government. Every one else should help them do it.

next DRAFT CALL
Expected SOOn-AbOut Twenty Men
To Be Called Here Within o Few
Days According to Unofficial
RepOrt-Farmers May Be
In Deferred Class.

Mason county may be called on 70:
its first quota in the second draft call
within a few days, according to un-
official information received here this
morning. 1t is understood that the
call will be for about 10000 men and
that Kentucky will be apportioned
about 1000. Maysville will probably
be asked for about only twenty men
of this quota.
The Provost Marshall General will
apportion each states quota of the
10000 men to be called. AS soon as
the Governor receives the quota num-
ber for. Kentucky the counties will be
apportioned and the men will be call
ed for immediate service.
Farmers will be in deferred class
owing to the scarcity of labor, accord
ing to the information received, and
Mason county may not have to furnish
as many men as the city Of Maysville
on this account. 1t has been pointed
out, however, that local boards will
be instructed to keep close watch on
the activities of the farmers thus de-
ferred on call, and if they are found
not in the work of producing crops,
they will be called at once.

The thieves gained entrance to the

climbing to the roof of the boiler
room of the bank. 1t was then an
easy matter to get over to small

broken, making 1t possible to turn the
latch holding 1t down, and to raise
the window and enter the building.
