American Library Association were to
be seen on all sides.
Hearing firing at a distance, we

half an hour recess to buy goods.

Associated Press Dispatch.
 Washington, June 27.-Number 246 was the first of the twelve hundred numbers drawn today in the national draft lottery to determine the rela- tive order of summoning to the colors of 744,500 regisrants of the 1918 class. The procedure today is similar to the previous draft drawing. The master numbers drawn today apply to the numbers on registration cards of ap- plicants. In the previous drawing the serial number was assigned, but this is deemed unnecessary at the present drawing because of fewer registrants. Secretary Baker drew the first num- Der from the bowl today in the pres ence of number of high govern ment officials.

MRS. JANE NIXON DEAD.

 Mrs. Jane Nixon, aged 89 years and five months, died at tho home of her daughter, Mrs. R. w. Anderson, of Jacksonport, Tuesday night. A general decline was the cause of her death as she suffered very little. A finer woman never lived and for a long number of years she has made her home with her daughter. She was loved by all who knew her and who enjoyed her happy disposition, even in old age. The body was car- ried to Patoka, Indiana, on No. to- day for burial beside the body of her husband, who preceded her years ago. Her only child, Mrs. Anderson, accom- panied the remains of her mother. Besides her daughter, Mrs. Nixon leaves six grandchildren, Robert An derson, of Camp Beaurgard, Charles Anderson and Mrs. Ella McNew, of Memphis, Mrs. Joe Massey and Frank Anderson of Jacksonport, and Mrs. Allie Black, of Waco, Texas.

Prospects For War

without any more looking after on your part.
 All persons living in Newport Spe cial School District East of the Lake are expected to be present at the East Side school house. All white people from the lake to White River bridge should meet at tn Walnut Street school and all colored people meet at the colored school.
 A committee will be in charge at each of these places to explain and take your pledge and those not com- ing will be seen within the next few days. If you really want to do your part in this campaign you will be on hand tomorrow and make your pledge as it is just as much your business to come as it is the committees business to have to run around and look you up. They are all busy men and have already and will continue to give geat deal of their time and efforts to- ward helping win his war, so anything you do will be greatly appreciated by them.
 If you already own War Stamps be sure to look up the exact amount you now have before you come, as every person must report the exact number they have already purchased. |

Bell Telephone Company has instructed all of their operators in the state (except five of the larg est cities) to send the following mes sage Friday morning to evry family having phone: "The government has called us to telephone you and re- mind you to be certain to attend the War Savings Stamps meeting and sign your pledge card today for War Savings Stamps"
 If you refuse and are unable to buy War Savings Stamps when the solic- itor calls, you can at least treat him or her courteously; solicitors are do- ing you favor in calling on you and please don't forget it's as much your duty to assist your government as that of the solicitor, who is expected to make a report on every one in Jackson county, buyer or non-buyer, and in the latter case, the solicitor is required to obtain the reason ov
 the signature of the refusal, and in the event of the refusal to sign, the solicitor is expected to give his opin- ion of the financial ability of the prospect, and to file it with his le- , turn to the proper authority.
