Men for General Service in

lowing closely on the order to send two
hundred and Lightweight men to Camp
Taylor on Monday, the local boards
today received orders for the en-
trainment of men to Camp Greenleaf,
at Lytle, Georgia, on the afternoon
of July Oath next Wednesday.
The city board will send fourteen
men at this time and two will be sent
from the county board No official list
of men has been made up for this call
as it is expected that men called as
alternates for the quota going to Camp
Taylor will be sufficient to make up the
list of men going to Camp Greenleaf
two days later, These men have been
notified of the date of mobilization and
all men called for July 22nd will be
utilized during the coming week
If they do not go to Camp Taylor they
will go to Camp Greenleaf
eve may be able to send out few
notices for men TO hold themselves in
readiness for call, but we believe that
we have called enough men to take
care of both of these quotas, declar-
ed one of the members of the exemp-
tion board this morning.
The sixteen men will be the first

one of the southern environments.

OF them were merited but we want to
add just one garland of praise and
that is due to Alderman Turkelson of

but feel that his personal work contri-

If the Common Council keeps on find
ing people who want more money and
more ways to spend money the tax
levy will probably soar considerably
We want every man in the employ of
the city to be paid the value of his
labor. All that we ask is that the
city gets a dollars worth Of service
for every dollar expended. The city
must compete with corporations and
private individual for its labor. 1t
must pay the price that these compan-
les are willing to pay. It must at the
same time demand the same kind of
service that they would demand.

defending this decision of the jury in
