Pg. 2, col.1 EXEMPTIONS NOT PERMANENT Now that the draft numbers have been drawn by the Federal Government, interest arises in the methods and reasons for exemption. An erroneous impression is held in some quarters that exemptions are permanent. The are not. A certificate of exemption may be recalled at any time. conditions under which it was issued may change. For example, a man might be exempted because he is married and has a wife or child dependent upon him; because he has a dependent widowed mother or aged of infirm parents; because he is the father of a motherless child under 16 dependent upon him; or because he is a brother of an orphan child or children under 16 dependent upon his labor for support. Such dependency might not continue long, and the certificate of exemption could be withdrawn. Very likely claims for exemption will be made for these and other causes, which it will be difficult for the local boards to determine. Much will depend upon the degree of dependency. A man may be the whole or only the partial support of dependents. Others may share in such support and might be able to give full support. It will be for the local boards to administer justice as nearly as they can. After the local district boards have received from the federal government the numbers drawn, men will be notified to appear before a physician for physical examination. If a man is found to be physically disqualified, the board will give him a certificate explaining what his "further duties are." If a man is found physically qualified he may file a claim for exemption. He must file it within seven days after the notice that he was called is posted, and he will have 10 day after filing the claim to submit proof, which must be in affidavit form. Claims for discharge will be decided within three days after the affidavits are submitted. The board may call for other proof than is submitted in affidavits, but it will do this only in a limited number of such cases, probably where the determination is of a character that would be humiliating if put in affidavit form. Appeals may be made from local boards to district boards within 10 days after the local boards have posted notices that the men named have been called. The presumption of the law is that all men of the prescribed age are subject to service. The burden of proof to the contrary rests upon the men of those ages. Should war continue long, it is likely that men exempted at first will later be called into the service. In that event physical requirements will be less strict and exemption will be more difficult to obtain. Pg. 2, col. 6 JUST FOR FUN Mrs. Jackson's baby has 3 teeth. J. N. Fredericksen was in town one day this week. He drove to town in his buggy. Mr. Fredericksen says he drives the horse because the horse will eat hay if he is left in the barn and his Ford will use gasoline if it is used, but doesn't eat anything when left at home. Luther Andrew Wright, one of our strong young men was one of those fortunate few to be selected by our Uncle Sammy to carry democracy to France. Luther says he'll carry at least 2 sacks of the stuff over, barring accident. Chas. O. Jackson, ranking democrat in our midst and also P. M. was advising Luther on advancing on the Germans. Charles says, "The officer will tell you to advance from your trench and occupy a shell hole, it you should come in contact with a German you will proceed to chip of the square corners of his dome and give him an injection of democracy". "Before advancing from my bomb proof trench" said Luther, "I will first argue with the officer, in Russian democracy style. I will say to him, 'Bring the shell hole over here and if its all right I'll move in. I insist on hot and cold running water, sanitary towels and soap and an iron cot to rest on. Besides that I believe I'm exempt, I think they will find my feet are bad.' "Yes," said Jackson, "no danger, they're going to have nice comfortable little electric heaters too, for the boys to keep their tootsie-wootsies warm." The P. M. then took refuge behind his securely barricaded place of business. SUMMONS IN FORECLOUSURE OF TAX LIEN (No. 2833) In the superior Court of the State of Washington for Pierce County. A. E.
