Under the new system adopted by
the War Department all men regis
tered June 5, 1917, with the exception
of those who have enlisted, those who
have been selected and mustered into
service, and those who have been des-
ignated to complete the quota from
the various districts. were issued ques-
tionaires and by the answers and af-
idavits filled in on these questionaires
the county and district military boards
are busy classifying the men in one
of the five classes designated;
! the first class will all be subjected to
a physical examination by local
4 boards, whether they haye previously
been examined or not, and from such
as are pronounced fit for service after
such examination thc next draft for
the Nationa' Army will be made; this
draft will probably be made soma
time after the 1st of March, though
no definite time has as yet been off
eially announced.
Fulton county's quota for the Ma
ttional Army of 1917 was 142; of this
. number, 104 have gone forward to
cantonments, been mustered into the
service and have been officially ac-
; cepted. Four more are in camp, hay
ing been mustered into the service, but
, the county board has not yet been Of
f fcially notified of their acceptance.
This leaves a probable balance of "a
: men due from this county under the
! first call. These men have already
been selected, but when they will be
: called to report for duty is not known,
though they are liable to call at any
time. The Fulton county Military
Board through its clerk, Harold Ham.
+ and his assistant, Mrs. Ham. are kept
! busy every day and some of the time
\ nights as well as days, on the clerical
work, which is sometimes so pressing
q that volunteer assistance from out
side has to be called in to clear it
up.
