HINT DRIVE ON
WORK SLACKERS
Understood That Exemption Board
VIII Take Up Investigation
In Near Future.
ARE BUSY OTHERWISE NOW
Reconsideration of First Registrars
and Other Work to Take
Some Time.

It is understood from what infor-
nation is obtainable at the local
exemption headquarters that a
drive is to be made shortly on vio-
Iators OF the work or fight order.
The selective service regulations
govern all occupations that are con-
sidered non-useful, and power rs
invested in local boards to see that
the regulations are enforced.
Work of re-classifying regis
trants of the class of June, 1917,
and the classification of the class Of
1918 is taking up all the time of the
exemption board at present.
1t is intimated that after this
work is completed an investigation
of occupations of all men of draft
age will be made.
Men in the class of June, 1918,
have already been allotted order
numbers according to the drawing
held at Washington some time ago.
When these registrants are CLASH
fed they will receive cards telling
of their class and order numbers.
1t is deemed probable that those who
did not claim deferred classified
ton will receive their cards the lat
ter part of this week.

copy of the British and Canadian

the agreement between the United
States and England regarding the

THE matter of extending clemency
to persons convicted is solely in the

Up 20 December 1 the Department Of
Justice had handled 1891 cases OF al
legged violations Of the espionage law.
OF these 252 pleaded guilty and were
sent TO prison, 237 were convicted after
trial, and 792 are pending.
Most OF the cases have had 20 do
with violations OF the draft law, prln-
cipally failure by men to register. In
the majority OF cases the accused were

The same applies 10 yiolators Of the

After Influenza What Then?

After this Spanish influenza has swept
the country almost like the "black death"
did in Europe in the Fourteenth Cen
tury, after the storm has passed, we are
confronted by the wrecks of men and
women who have been left In n
weakened condition, with pale faces and
feelings of general lassitude and weak
ness. 1t is a fact to be borne in mind
that the effort on the part of nature TO
throw off the poisons during the attack
'of Spanish influenza results sometimes in
nephritis, or inflammation of the kidneys.
In view of the seriousness OF this dis
ease as a result Of toxemia, it is most
essential that treatment De directed TO-
wards prompt elimination of the toxins
(poisons) f-om the body. This means that

COKEVILLE WENT LOVER
.-it THE Top IN THREE DAYS

The citizens of Cokeville have re-
sponded to the governments call for
Liberty Loan Bonds in a splendid
manner and the committee in charge
OF the work has much to it's credit.
On April 9th. three days after the
drive started, a mass meeting was
held in the COkeville opera house,
largely attended, and which was ad-
dressed by the Hon. Charles O'Connor
OF Boulder. Colo, who in stirring
address aroused the patriotic impulse
of all present thru his earnest des-
cription of atrocities now being car
ried on by the Germans i'll the Euro
pean war, many of which were new to
our people.
AS result of this meeting $22,500
was subscribed to cover a quota of
$4,000 and 1t is still possible that
from $4,000 to $1,000 may be added
to this fund.
BY careful count Cokeville could
line about PIT residents and there
are those ready to challenge the world
for Cokeville-to produce another
town of population so small to go so
far over it's quota in three days.
