Why should you worry your

Dear Miss Grey: We are a
class of girls and are to have
a class party. We invited boys,
and now because one girl told
them we are going to play
kissing games, the boys say they
will not come. Should We tell
them this is not SO and ask
them again to come? SUE.
III you have q class chaperone,
she should help you straighten out
this tangles II you have none,
you should agree upon one at
once-some teacher who is bright
and entertaining-and have her q
guest at all Of your affairs. She
will help you to have q good time
and at the same time will, by her
greater experience in social mat
tiers, keep you from any such un-
pleasantness as this. Kissing
games have no place as a class
party-or at any party-and II
the boys take stand against
them, they should be commended
for doing so. But the whole class
of girls should not be misjudged
because Of foolishness on the part
Of one member.

Of the CIassifications.

The local exemption board com.
menced this morning to examine all
of the Crawford county registrants
placed in class one, other than those
who have filed appeals or those who
stated in their questiOnnaires that
they were engaged in agricultural
work. The board will examine eighty
registrants a day until all of the men
in class one have been examined.
Those who have flied appeals or asked
deferred classification on account of
being farmers will not be examined
until after they have been cassed by
the district board.
DR.. w. T. Wright, member of the eX-
emption board, and DR.. H. d. Jones,
OF Schleswig, are the two physicians
who are making the physical examina-
ton of the re2istrants. They COM
menced the work at 9 o'clock this fore
noon and by night expect to have
eighty men examined. Each man is
sent a postal card on which is stated
the day and hour he is to appear at
the court house for examination.
The board has been notified that two
army officers from Camp Dodge will
be sent to Denis son some time during
the examination to instruct the en-
aiming board for two days. Capt.
John NJ. Conely and Lieut.. VIM. l..
Hoffman are the two officers to be
sent here Army officers at the various
environments have found that the var
ious local examining boards have not
been strict enough with the physical
examinations and they have certified
men who are physically unfit and these
men have had to be returned from the
camps to their homes at considerable
expense to the government. Officers
are being sent to nearly every county
to aid the examining board as much
as possible to overcome this difficulty.

peared in the Review heretofore
