The prospects of call faced by the
registrants cover only about ten per
cent If persons number was among
the first ten per cent he may be in
the 100000 out of the 16,40O,O00. ONLY
about five per cent actually will be
taken, but ten per cent will be called
for questioning.
The number drawn first was ex-
actly one hundred behind the mineral
drawn first in the World War draft
lottery Of July 20, 1917. In Washing
ton, where the drawing took place the
number 1853 was Harry Robert Bell
and his mother, Mrs. Mary S. Bell,
was in the audience
The entire list of those registered in
this county will be published in a
later issue of The Republican, prob
ably in the order in which their num-
bers were called in the draft.
