Announcement was made yesterday

last night. Under tho old system our
men reported at 3 \. II. and did much
OF their work in the coolest hours OF
winter mornings. Horses slipped on icy
streets and there was no one TO help
the driver If his horse fell. BY the
change we will be able to save consid-
cradle fuel. as heretofore the dis:ribu-
ton Offices have had to be heated by
l a. NJ, when the stable men reported
ana DeEan getting the teams ready. We
find that daylight delivery has worked
well in other cities, especially in cold
weather, and once lfousekccpcrs get
used to the new hours there will be
little cause OF complaint. We will not
only be saving in light and fuel at the
Office. but in freezing and discomfort
TO tho mcn and cruelty to the horses"
Heretofore there have been two de-
iiver:es daily, one beginning about :
4. NJ. and the other during the morning
as the drivers could get over their

HOW REC|sTRANTS MAY

Allow Men to 30 Classified
Where They Reside.

Regarding the Number OF Regis
trantS in Glass Twill Not BE as
Large rs Had Been Expected.

Additional proof OF the governments
determination to assist the resistrants
In complying with the rules of the Sc
lcctive service act was received yes-
tcrday at the headquarters OF tho local
boards in the form OF a letter from
the adjutant-gcncrars Office in WASH
irgton. II stated that reports had
reached Washington that registered
men in some. localities had been re-
fused the privilege Of transferring
their classification from the board
whcrc they were originally registered
to the jurisdictIon OF some board To-
Gated near their present place OF resi-
dcnce. which was designed particular
~ for tho benefit of mon who had
moved from ono City TO anothc. since
June j.
The attention of the members OF the
boards Is called to section 1ii OF Tho
selcc;ivc service regulations where do
tailed instructions are given for tho
transfer of classification. IL IL Is owl
dent that under the present circuu,-
stances unnecessary hardship and in
convenience could be avoided bv Mac
ing the duties OF classification in tho
hands OF a board near which the regis
trant now resides. the latter is entitled
to ask for such transfer. Indeed Il
often happens that tho nearer board
Is in far better position to consider
the claims Of the rcSistrant than is
the board where he originally regis
tered, but care should be exercised BY
the officials that the petition is not
being made with the motive OF at
tempting to escape military service
through some subterfuEe.
NO DEFINITE DATA AS
TO NUMBER N CLASS
Owing to the different methods Of
procedure employed by the various
boards in the work OF classification It
will be well-nigh impossible TO state
with any degree Of accuracy the per
centagc OF men who will be placed
in class l. AS rule the majority of
the first missionaries returned to the
boards were those OF men who had no
CLAIM for exemption. and who were
therefore able to fill out and return
their blanks promptly. At first glance
1t would seem that there was a very
large percentage of men in class |. but
as the work progresses the examiners
come TO the cases where claims for
deferred classification are in the ma
iority. and the members OF the various
boards admit that no definite percent
ages can be given as correct until the
end of tile classification has practically
been reached.
This is we'll borne out by figures
taken from the classification books OF
the various boards. About 100 con-
secutive names were taken at random
from the pages Of the books at the
various boards with the following re-
suits:
