YOUNG SOLDIER
 GETS IMPRESSION
 IS MUCH FIGHTING

BEHIND BIRTHS HLINES IN FRANCE, June 7.-The young soldier under orders to embark for the first time who pictures to himself a future which will be all fighting days and sees himself step from the troop ship to be rushed to battle as did the first British divisions sent to the rescue of Mons, is doomed to disap- pointment.
 As matter of fact, he will spend only small proportion of his time in the front line, and even while there. will. only see actual fighting at more or less rare intervals. Life will hold great deal of base and "billets" for him even in France.
 This time spent far behind the lines he will find irksome or pleas ant. according to whether his temper a ment is eager and enterprising or the reverse. The food is excellent, work is comparatively light and amusements are plentiful.

RE-CLASSIFY
 ALL MEN IN
 DRAFT SERVICE s|:

According to word received by Cap tain J. J. Finnegan, all local exempt tion boards will be obliged within the near future to re-classify all the registrants under the former ques tionnaires in the hands of the board Many men were placed in Class four whose dependencies have ceased to exist since that time, many men were placed in Class B for slight physical defects, and others have received de ferred classification for other reas- ons
 The new order will result in many persons who received deferred classi fications being shifted up to Class One. It is the intention to secure the cooperation of hospitals, doctors and dentists to correct slight physi cal faults in many men which will allow them receiving the higher clas 3ification This work of re-classifi cation will start within a short time

Alfred Finch Crocker, who had been listed in Juneau as a stacker is in the United States Navy, ren dering his country service and about to leave for the war zone, according to a letter received by The Empire last night from the commanding off cer of United States Submarine chas CT 29S.
 The letter to The Empire says:
 SEATTLE, June 3,-To the Editor It has come to my notice that Al fred Finch Crocker, (Reg. No. 31D has been listed among the slackers of your town. This is a gross mis take as MT Crocker is detailed to a ship destined for the war zone. He has been in the service since Decem Der IA, 1917, and has already shown his worth. Kindly make proper cor. rections so he will not be classed as stacker by his own people.
 Yours sincerely,

FROM
 BOYS OVER THERE
 ABOUT SMOKES
Somewhere in France"

Somewhere in France" Dear Sirs:
 Upon your request to know our ex- periences and how we like your to- bacco fund idea. For my part (and am sure all the boys agree with mel I think it is a God-send to us lover here," for when we are out of smokes we are out of sorts. A cig- arctic will put a smile on many a downcast and gloomy face. If only these people that are prejudiced against cigarettes could see the glad smiles on the faces of our boys in France as they receive your gifts of smokes, they certainly would lay it ali aside and contribute to Our Boys in France Tobacco Fund" and also write few lines to us because a word of cheer to us from home makes us lift up our heads and feel like the people back home are behind us and we will fight to the end for we are here to get the Kaiser and we ain't coming back until we bring Victory with us.
 So all we ask is a word of cheer and just a few smokes of good old U. s. A tobocco and we will bring home the Laurels of Victory.
 Thanking you for your good work, we remain,
 Your lifelong friends,

JUNEAU BOYS ENJOY LIFE AS
 J. s. SOLDIERS
Charley HenseI, Formerly of Juneau, Tells of Those at Fort
 Mcdowell.

Amos Sundstrom, of the c. w. Young Company, has received let ter from Charles Hensel, formerly of the c. w. Young Company staff, but now in the Recruit Record Division, at Fort Mcdowell Angel Island Cal ifornia. He says, in part:
 Bob Bruce and Tom Stoddard are here at the post and they have told me more of the Juneau news than have heard for over year. To think that with all this breath of the North I have never had the cray ing to get back up there as every one said I would But then this life is too good to get away from as there is something to do all of the time and also somewhere to go.
 q have been in the service for such long time that l think I am regular now, as the rookie days are gone and the uniform has begun to get real shiney, so much so, in fact that I will soon have to draw anoth CT and, as you know, one cannot wear them out in few days. But then, boy, l am glad I got into it instead of waiting to be drafted, for so many of the draft men come in here at the same time that it seems hard for them to be handled. So, for the love of Mike, get busy and go now. It Is the only thing for the fellows to do as we have to give old Kaiser Bill hell and then some, as it is up to the good old U. s. A. to do the job.
 "I had a letter from 'Gib' a short time ago, and he seems to like it very much over there. This is the opinion of all of the fellows that have been over. There are a lot of them in San Francisco all of the time, so we keep pretty well posted and I wish to the dickens they would see fit to send me out of here, for I am as crazy as the rest of them to get out and hear the rattle of the guns, and get some of the rest of the hell they are having in France.
 "They have a regular bowling alley here at the Post and you might find me there at the spare moments that have for, even though I suffered the misfortune of having a finger badly broken on my right hand, I am still in the ring and am willing to take you on for a game any old time that you wish.
 Tell the crowd at the Old Haunt, in other words, the Elks' Club, all hello for me-"
 Mir. Sundstrom says that Floyd L.. Gibson, to whom MT. Hensel refers in his letter, is in France and "likes it fine" and that J. J. Woodland is at Camp Dix, and expects to leave for France at any time. Both MT. Gibson and MT. Woodland were em- ployed by the c. w. Young Company. Angel Island is in San Francisco Bay.

of the thirty-fifth legislature. Eight cen hundred saloons had previously been closed by executive act estab- fishing 10-mile dry" zone around military camps and shipbuilding plants. Under the 10-mile law which became effective last April 15, the sale of intoxicants ceas- ed in the principal cities of the state. Saloons closing tonight were located in the less populous districts.
 The statewide prohibition act. it is understood, is to be tested in the courts as to it's constitutionality but decision is unlikely before fall be- cause of the forthcoming recess of the higher courts nutil October.
 Another liquor regulatory law ef-i fective at midnight tonight is the "anti-roadf ouse' act, providing that saloon licenses must be confined to in- corporated cities. Should the state- wide law be held invalid the anti roadhouse law would govern re-issu-i ance of liquor licenses.

''that this delay is preparatory to a heavy assault in force by the German higl command The present condition Of affairs does not mean anything but l.t. They are recognizing their troops, filling up losses, and prepar- ing to try it again.
 Another indication of the pressure under which the American program is being rushed to meet the German menace came from the provost mar shal generals office today when orders were issued to local boards to speed up physical examination of the new class l men and have them ready for call in August.
 Call More Men Soon.
 Statements of the draft program made public in Congress indicated the purpose of calling out at least 100000 men during August, although subse- quent calls during the year were not expected to exceed one-half of that figure monthly. The orders set out today, however, coupled with the statement by the chief of staff, indi- cate that hopes are entertained at the War Department that the present rate of moving troops to Europe can be substantially maintained for several months.

Washington, July 6-Germany is preparing for a renewal of the offen- siye on the west front which may come at any moment with terrific force. General March, chief of staff, said today in his weekly conference with newspaper correspondentS. At the same time he sounded this new American slogan:
 We have embarked million men and we are now going after the secs ond million
 To members of the Senate Military Committee during this weekly con- ference with War Department off, cials it was revealed that more than a quarter of million American troops were at various points on the battle lines July l. The latest American units reported in action are those brigaded with the Australian forces in the attack on Hamel July 4. of which no official account has been re- ceived.
 Americans Are Helping.
 General March said that General Foch was carrying out campaign of 'nibbling' at the enemy front, the capture of Vaux by troops of the American second division, composed of regular regiments having been a striking example of the raids in force.
 The present delay of the Germans in pressing attacks in France means only that they are preparing new and heavy blows, General March said.

 The total number of Germans cap tured by the Americans is now esti- mated to number about 500, inciud- ing seven officers. Many groups of prisoners have been sent to the rear. Others have been located in hospitals. where they were taken after being wounded.

GAMBLING RULE
Dealers Need Not Candle Eggs
After November Is.

Licensed dealers in poultry and

Poultry Section of the Missouri
Division Of the Food Admins
tratiOn announces. The Food Ad-
m%inistration ruling requiring all
licensed dealers to buy eggs on

an enormous saving in food, re-
ports to the office of the State
Food Administration show. This
has been brought about quite
largely through the cooperation
of the poultry and egg shippers
and the country food administra-
ton.
Dealers are warned, however.
that the Missouri statute for
bidding the "sale or keeping for
sale or offering for sale of faint

force.
Many dealers say there is a
tendency for farmers to hold
eggs anticipating higher prices.
This practice should be discour-
