"Class l" Is Reporting
Busy Days For Board of Exemption
Americas Sons Answering Her Call
Names of Daily Quota Continued.

Anyone who should look into the
sheriff's office, which is nowadays
the scene of operations of the local
board of examiners and exemption,
will be sobered and saddened, and at
the same time will have sense OF
pride and qualification.
AS all are aware the men who un-
der selective service regulations nave
been placed in Glass One of the regis
trants from this county for possible
military service, are being called, at
the rate of fifty each day, to appear
before the local board for examina-
ton. Quite a number have, since reg
istration removed to other localities,
and these, by letter or wire, must ar
range for transfer of appearance to
present habitat, or suffer the very
serious consequences. Tuesday was
the first day for appearance, and thir-
ty-six of the fifty reported and were
examined, only three of them failing
to pass. Yesterday, out of the fifty
notified again thirty-six reported and
again only three were rejected.
In the actual work of examination,
which is no pretense, two are admin
ted at time; and after six have been
received, the number inside is kept
at that figure-two men undergoing
the examination, two disrobing and
the other two resuming their gar
ments Height and weight are quick
ly ascertained and noted, and then
follow tests of the eye, the ear, the
teeth, wind, feet,-everything that can
make for or against perfect physical
soundness.
In view of the fact that this coun-
ty has already sent to the colorS, in
round numbers and in various capac-
tiles. five hundred representatives, it is
certainly cause for pride and gratifi-
cation to see these other hundreds Of
in every way splendid young men
coming forward upon call without
hesitation or excuse At the same
;; time it must bring home to every
! thoughtful person a saddening sense
! of the gravity of the present situa-
= ton and of the terribly serious and
I threatening possibilities of the future.
!, The number of registrants in this
= county assigned by QUESTIONABLE evil
dence to Glass One, now being called
is estimated at something near five
hundred. Should the next forth-com-
ing call to the colors be, as expected
of same size and apportionment as the
former one, the quota will be substan-
/ TALLY the same as before, when 1t was
two hundred and eighty-seven. AS We
are supposed to be entitled to a credi
N of nearly two hundred on account o
!. previous enlistments, less than one II
five of the entire class is likely to b.
taken-a fact from which mothers
sisters and sweethearts, if not the reg
'e istrants themselves, are likely to de
4 rive considerable comfort.
