largest whiskey making con-
cerns in the country and direct-

rate of consumption, saying

200,000,000 gallons of whiskey

Band Concert Highly Enjoyed.
A large crowd gathered Fri-
day evening at the bank corners
on Main Street, to hear the first
band concert of the season, by
the home band. Several num-
bers were rendered by the local
band under the leadership of
Ray Ogden, which were highly
appreciated and which reflected
no .little credit on the home
boys. The concert commenced
about 8 :45 and lasted for more
than an hour, and a splendid
program was rendered. This
should be a weekly or semi-
weekly attraction in Bartlett.

MEN REGISTERED FOR
DUTY MUST BE READY.

or stop in building up the selec-
1 ive army was taken today with
I the distribution of a circular by
Provost Marshal General Crowd-
er notifying the registered men
! to hold themselves in readi-
ness for appearing before the
boards which will conduct ex-
aminations and consider exemp-
tions. How or when the Govern-
ment will select the men to be
examined is not detailed in the
circular, but it is revealed that
registration cards in each coun-
ty or city jurisdiction are to be
numbered with red ink and that
"as soon as the drawing is com
plete, lists showing the order in
are drawn will be publshed in
the press and will be posted at
office of each local board." It
already has been anounced that
the selection wil take place in
Washington and the general
presumption has been that some
device similar to a jury wheel
will be employed.
Boards Determine Exempttions.
Exemptions are to be deter-
mined by the the local boards,
the circulars shows, only for
the previously announced spe-
cified causes, such as probably
for the support of relatives, and
not for agricultural or industri-
al reasons. Seven days after
designations are posted will be
allowed lor filling claims. Then
there will be an additional allow
ance of ten days for filing
proofs and the board must de-
cide within three days after the
proof is filed.
When the case of any regis-
trant has been disposed of, so
far as the local board is concern-
ed, the names of those not ex-
empted or discharged, will be
posted. Claims for exemption
for agricultural or industrial
work must be made within five
days after such posting and
must go direct to the higher
board sitting for -the judicial
district. A ppeals from the rul-
ings of local boards must be
made to the higher board with-
in ten days.
The circular does not cover
the summoning of the men for
actual service, pointing out that
selection and acceptance does not
mean an immediate summons.
Instructions to Registrant.
The steps a registered per-
son should take are set forth
in great detail in the circular.
First, the registrant is advised
to find out the location of the
office of his county or city local
board and then ascertains, if he
intends to claim exemption for
agricultural or industrial rea-
sons, to what district board he
must apply.
"Every board has numbered
the cards in its jurisdiction with
red ink in a series running from
one to the number representing
the total number of cards in its
jurisdiction," continues the cir-
cular. "The red ink numbers
are to be drawn by lot to deter-
mine the order in which regis-
tered persons are to be called by
the various local boards.
"As soon .as quotas are as-
signed to each State and each
Bureau

Despite the fact that Welworth Waists are still being sold at $2.00 there's
been no lowering of the high standard of quality that has been established for
these splendid waists. True, everything that goes into their making has ad-
vance in cost but this added cost has been offset by the. economies in making
a result of the enormous increase in volume of sales. All of which explains
why the Welworth and Wirthmor are the fastest selling waists in America to-
day. .

board, each board will call upon
persons whose cards are in its
jurisdiction instructing them to
present themselves for exami-
nation on the day named in your
call.
"If you are found physically
disqualified, the board will give
you a certificate which will ex-
plain to your furtner duties.
"If you are found physically
qualified and file a claim for ex-
emption within seven days after
your call, you will be given ten
days after filing your claim of
exemption.
"If you are found physically
qualified and file no claim for ex-
emption, or if you do not appear
for physical examination, your
name will be posted to the dis-
trict board as one who was call-
ed for military service and was
not exempted or discharged.
On the eighth day after call or
within two days thereafter,
copies of the list of persons so
will be given to the press with a
request for publication, will be
posted in a place at the office of
the local board accessible to the
pubile view, and notice will be
mailed to you at the address on
your registration card."
Work of District Boards.
"Only the district board,"
continues the circular, "can re-
ceive claims for discharge on the
ground that you are engaged in
industry, including agriculture.
Only decisions of district boards
on industrial claims for dis-
charge can be appealed. If you
desire to appeal thq decision of
the district board to the Presi-
dent, you may do so within sev-
en days of the date of mailing
to you of the decision of the dis-
trict boai-d. As soon as your
case is finally disposed of the
Adjutant General of your State,
will notify you by mail that you
have been finally selected for
military service.
"Notice that you have been
selected for military service will
not necessarily order you into
service. Notice to report for mil-
itary service will come when the
Government is ready to receive
you."
