LrOwder Cuts Into
Local Boards Pay
Boards Hereafter to Receive 80 Cents
For Each Man Finally Classified
Provost Raps Lack of Pa
triotism Shown by Some

Washington, Jan. 12.-Extravagant
expense bills filed by many members
Of the local boards for their service
in classifying registrants has led
Provost Marshal General Crowder
to accept the recommendation of
board members and others connected
with the administration of the selec-
tive draft to place the salary of the
classification system on a cost basis.
In a telegram sent to-day to ali
state governors, Gen. Crowder pro-
mulgates new regulations, approved
by President Wilson, under which the
boards hereafter will receive an ag-
gregate of 80 cents remuneration for
each man finally classified, exclusive
of compensation for clerks or exam
ing physicians who are not members
of the board. Under the old rules
the boards were allowed a maximum
of $3.50 a month for each member,
exclusive Of clerical help.
While many board members have
renewed their offers of gratuitous
services and others have held their
expense account down, Gen. Crowder
said in his telegram, "a considerable
number, regardless Of size of the
registration in their respective jur-'

Mr.. AND MRS. c. E. SISk
HAVE CLOSE CALL.

Mr.. and Mrs. C. Z. Sisk suffered
quite an exciting experience and had
a close call for their lives early Sun
day morning, just few minutes af-
ter the fire alarm sounded When the
alarm was given at the power house,
both Mr.. and Mrs. Sisk got up to see
where the fire was. No sooner than
they had gone back TO bed the ceiling
in their bed room gave way and
dropped, fortunately the be posts
held the heavy weight off them until
they manged to crawl out.
II seems that the house was plast-
cred, then ceiled over head. Tho srd-
den drop o. the entire overhead CELL
ing without warning, crushing a lamp
that was burning, was exciting and
the two were badly frightened, but
otherwise unhurt. Mr.. Walter Brum-
NETT, a next door neighbor, was
called in to assist in removing the
debris.

isdiction, have made their estimates
on so extravagant a scale that the
total cost could not be paid out of
any appropriation which Congress
would be willing to make or which
the people of the nation would ap-
prove"
Under the new regulations expens-
es already allowed members would be
Considered to have been based upon
the provisions of this regulation, and
any and all further payments shall
be computed accordingly" The
boards, by unanimous vote, may dis
tribute the 30 cents allowance per
man among their number as they
may desire, provided that no member
shall receive NOR than Is cents and
no two members more than 25 cents.
Gen. Crowder praises the patriotic
members of the boards who are Civ
ing their time to the government
without pay, and adds:
Personal sacrifices are beng made
on every hand. The soldiers who are
being selected by the local and dis
trict boards have given up comforta-
BILE homes and in many places sacri-
feed large incomes in order to fight
for their country "a hours day for
$50 per month. Therefore, it is not
unreasonable to request the great
army composed of local board MEM
bers to meet the government and CO.
operate with it in the matter of
minimum cost.
This is their country, they are
part of its army and it is confidently
expected that they will give the gov
eminent in the future, as they have
in the past, the best that is in them,
and that they will receive compensa-
ton only to the extent that may be
necessary in their condition Of life"

the fire was extinguished to the ex-
tent of permitting the removal of the
three charred bodies.
Many people responded to the cries
Of "Helpw "Firew that echoed from
hill to hill and aroused the denizens
of Happy Hollow" from sweet sleep.
The intense cold, the snow and ice
made fire fighting difficult task,
but everything possible was done by
the volunteer fire boys as well as
those who had gathered for the pur-
pose of rendering whatever service
they could.

COAL SITUATION
GROWING ACUTE
Local Coal Dealers Handling Situa-
fion Admirably-No Suffering
From Shortage of Coal
Reported.

The local coal dealers, Messrs.
Brown q Brummett, have had a prob
lem before them this winter. With
the shortage of coal being reported
everywhere, and in some places in
tense suffering caused from the lack
of coal, these gentlemen have hand
led the situation in Oxford in an ad-
mirable manner. They nave been
able to supply all demands up to this
time, but we understand that the
limit Of a half ton to the customer
has been adopted and this rule is a
good one.
Every one has had a reasonable
supply Of coal, Notwithstanding the
fact that we have had some of the
coldest weather for many years. More
coal has been used than is ordinarily
used at this season, but no suffering
has been reported in Oxford for the
lack of coal.
The coal man is having a hard
time; his stock is taking the weather
as the shivering drivers are seen con-
stantly on the streets delivering the
allowances to customers. Mr.. Brown
said this morning when he was asked
about the supply, that his coal was
running short, but that more was ex-
pected to come in this week, and that
the half ton limit was only until the
supply could be replentished.

MILK IN WINTER.

Why do your cows give less milk
IN winter than they do in summer? ?
just because nature does not sup

food. But We have come to the as
