The county exemption board nc
has arranged with the lawyers yc
of the county to assist regis cc
ti ants in filling out the long list ar

answering the questions. m
ENLIST FOR SERVICE
Not everybody can go to the ri<
front in France to fight for his hi
country. Everybody unable to cc
serve in the army, however, can m
enlist in the Red Cross. There a
is important war work for all cc
the men and women of Ameri m
ca, and for youth under or over th
military age, right at home. b<
No age limit bars enlistment in m
the Red Cross. It is the great ai
organized force through which tu
every one not on the firing line til
tnav play his part in the war bs
Liberty. th
The chance to become a re oi
cruit in the greatest army ever it
mobilized to relieve human p(
suffering, as well as to lighten ol
the burdens and enhance the m
strength of the fighting men, is yj
presented to all by the Red tfc
Cross Christmas Membership
Campaign. In the week befoie ol
Christmas it is planned to add in
10.1)00,000 names to the Red Sl
Cross rolls. Fifty thousand re- iL
cruting booths will be open h
throughout the United States to tb
receive enlistments. It is plan
ned to make membership in the 0(
Red Cross almost as universal tb
as citizenship. To that end it is c<
proposed that .the way shall be jn
made so open that no one can fa
remain an outsider through lack p,
of proper invitation. w
Here is an opportunity to w
show the 1917 Christmas spirit, m
as well as to get into the war _
work that summons all patriotic
Americans. President Wilson, ns
is apt phrase, has proclaimed a
that "Red Cross membership is |,i
