The local draft board, in the
Instructions relative to the Sc
lection Of the quota for the Sc
cond draft, finds the following
provisions dealing with the de-
ferment Of farm laborers:
!'The situation arising from
the scarcity Of farm labor de-
mands that the call to the colors
of men actively, completely and
assiduously engaged in the
planting or cultivation Of a crop,
but who are in class one and
within the new quota should de-
ferred until the end ofSthe new
quota.
''The president directs that,
in filling this emergency call,
that boards shall pass the order
numbers of such men and defer
their call for the present. 1t
must be borne in mind that this
step is taken solely in the need
of the nation and not for the
benefit of any Individual. There
fore, while boards should con-
slider it a grave duty to exercise
this power to conserve and aug
ment the agricultural production
they should observe closely the
conduct Of those deferred and
immediately upon becoming con-
vinced that any person so defer
red is not giving his entire time
and earnest attention to aagricui-
tural duty, or that he is trifling
with the deferment thus grant
ed him, the board should forth
with call him to the colors.'

TOTALS S4O1.2 1851. w
Altogether amounting to the
sum Of $1251.25.
And SO by the above figures
lit will be seen that the Philip
School is taking a great interest
in helping financially to win this
war. Those figures also mean
a great deal of work, for many
of the students, probably most
|of them, worked to secure the
money with which they purchas-
ed their thrift stamps and In
berty bonds. Some Of them per
haps earned their money at
home while others may have
found work elsewhere. But
when ever they earned it they
had to give up time, perhaps the
time they needed in which to do
something else, or maybe they
sacrificed some pleasure, but they
are willing to sacrifice for they
too know that sacrifice means
victery. Any way the Philip
School has shown a great deal Of
interest in helping to finance
this war.
