Questionnaires are being sent out to
the registrants under the registration
of a week ago and the legal advisory
board consisting Of the lawyers of the
county is preparing to take up the work

the attorneys of the county to complete
plans for the work was held yesterday
afternoon at the armory.
Several attorneys who helped fill out
the questionnaires last winter are now
in camps or elsewhere in the service,
and there are not attorneys enough left
to take care of the work according to
Mr.. Matthews. For this reason volun-
teer clerical workers will be asked.
Anyone VINO can help is asked to report
to Mr.. Matthews at the armory.

All class one men at the disposal of
the local draft board will be required
to meet the call for men for October,
receivel Tuesday by the board. The
state is asked for 8. 1000 men and of this
number 70 will be taken from this

registration, but those of the registra-
tions of June 5 and August "a when
men who had just reached their 2lst
birthday enrolled. A considerable num-
Der of these younger men have already
gone to camp.
Figures compiled by the board show
that since the draft system was inaug
urated approximately 631 men have
been sent to camp from here. The
total enrolment in the county prior to
that of last Thursday was approx.
mately 2, 900 men. Out of this number
a total of 701 class one men have been
obtained. 1t is figured that the per
centage of class one men to be obtained
from the new registration will run
about the same, and on this basis the
registration of last week will yield
025 men.
The men between the ages of 10 and
81 and 80 and 80 inclusive, will be the
first to be called for service according
to an announcement by the provost
marshal general. There are 1912 men
of these ages in the county according 10
