iment for Oklahoma was made last
night when upon the receipt of the
necessary physical examination and
enlistment blanks late yesterday
evening, 26 men were examined,
passed and their names enrolled
upon the official list Of the comp
tnys membership
Tho blanks, mailed out of the Ok
lahoma headquarters did not arrive
until late yesterday evening, The
men were al the argG0ry drilling, but
upon receipt OF the blanks, they ad-
jcurned to the Council OF Defense
rooms where they were put through
the physical tests by Dr.. j. c. Am
brister until after midnight, The
only thing that prevented the list
from being materially swelled by
other enlistments was the fact that
there was not sufficient time in
which to handle more men, The
members win meet tonight at the ar
mory and while those already Off
cially composing the roster OF the
arc engaged in drilling, the
others will be examined and their
names entered on the dotted line.

OF VOLUNTEERS
REGISTRARS Who Served Sept II,
Get Thanks OF Board for
Efficiency.
165 LIST OVER 5000 MEN
Appreciate Aid of others Who
Served and Business Men Who
Sent StenOgraphers.

Members Of the Rock Island ex-
emption board are loud in their
praise of services rendered by the
registrars serving at the registra-
ton held Sept II, the results Of
their work now being gone over,
showing efficiency to a high degree.
One hundred and sixty-five regis
trars served at 40 registration
booths in the 10 townships under
the Jurisdiction of the local board,
and these men and women-for
there were some women registrars
listed over six thousand men and
arranged their cards in satisfac-
tory manner. This work was done
in some cases without adequate reg
istration cards, and many of the
registrants were OF necessity in
formed to appear at the Rock Is
land board headquarters a few days
later to obtain evidence Of their
registration.
The board desires to thank all
these registrars for their efficient
aid given totally without cOmpensa-
ton. Memb also state that there
is but slight chance that the regis
trars viii ever be called upon again

states that it is probable that the
city will not take any action in OBJ
tanning d fire force until after the
regular monthly meeting to be held
next Monday.
The commissioners state that
they have done everything in their
power for the fremen, and that the
special election held June %, at an
approximate cost of $4,000, was
agreed upon by the hremen to be
the proper way to settle the wage
matter. The voters failed to carry
the increased tax proposition
tanned money out Of which to in
crease the firemen's pay, and there
fore the increase asked could not
be granted
The men had requested that they
be granted an increase OF SIS a
month with every fourth day OFF or
$50 a month with every sixth day
of. The city allowed a bonus of
$40 q month and every fourth day
of, with the understanding that if
the tax issue carried the men would
be granted the full amount Of the
increase requested The commits
siOners state that the firemen
agreed 10 abide by the decision at
the polls. and that the firemen said
tAat they were positive that the
proposition would carry.
However, d petition was sent to
the commissioners at their meeting
last Monday in which the firemen
asked for a permanent increase of
$50 month with the abolition of
the bonus now received The petit
ton set forth that the ffremen had
held a meeting Sept. IL and had
decided on this course They ask
ed that the wage increase take eff
feet Oct ]. Time limit was set at
8 in the morning Of Sept. IS for the
commissioners to make answer to
the petition. The petition was rul-

The board also extends its thanks
to business men who have allowed

The men have arranged the time
for their designations to take eff

the five stations will leave each
day, and that some will remain at
each station until the last day,
when the remaining ones will leave.
They are quitting stations at Nos 1,
