j
"Washington.?Men from nineteen
tr? twenty and thirty-two to thirty-six
will bo classified first under the new
draft. No time is to be lost in getting
them tabulated, so that the induction
into active service of those
found fit to fight may keep pace with
the demands of the War Department
for more men.
They registered on Thursday and
on Monday the questionnaires were
sent out to all of the first contingent.
From these classes approximately a
million and a half soldiers will b
realized.
Word went to the Governors of all
the States to-nieht instructing them I
to start the wheels moving.
There is no intimation as to when i
the oighteen-year-oldors will be call- ;
ed, but there is an understanding ,
that none of these will bo sent to
France before they have reached the
age of nineteen unless some un- j
foreseen emergency arises.
The question of sparing men from
asking exemption either on industrial
grounds or because they have dependents
is met partially by the pro
vision allowing others to make th?
' request for the exemption of any registrant.
There always has been a
provision in the law that makes it
possible for local hoards to exempt
men of obvious ineligibility, even fi
the claim of exemption is not made,
but it is patent that, with 18,000,000
men to survey, the Government has
not lime to analyze the case of each
man.
To Finish Work by End of Year.
Gen. Crowder expects the work of
classifying the first contingent to be
completed within forty-five days.
Just as soon as it is finished the work
of classifying the oLder men will begin.
All classification under the Man
Power Act should be finished before
the end of the year.
Boys of eighteen years who do not
hsiro to take advantage of thn nriv
i 1 c?ceo of atterwHng college under inili- j
tary auspices will not be required to;
do so. The Provost Marshal General j
was advised to-day that the law provides
that not more than 150,00 boys'
may be maintained in this way at s
Government expense.
v As heretofore Announced, there win j
be constant changes among the boys
in college. After a few weeks, Gen. j
Crowder said, some may be trans- j
forred to Officers' training camps, j
vocational schools and non-commissioned
officers' training camps. As
one set of hoys leaves an institution
v i; h which the War Department has'
entered into a contract, his place will I
be taken by another.

HORRY MOVES UP.
From 5th to 2nd Place in One Week, j
in a month and a halt Horry County
lias come from 25th place in the
sale of War Saving's Stamps to 3rd
place in the total per capita sales for
the State. Beaufort is first, Char-1
leston second and Horry third with
a total sale of $186,116.25 up to Sep- |
tembcr 7th, to her credit. j

a march on us and stands first for
the week ending September 7th with
Horry a close second, the sales being
Beaufort $22,106.26, Horry $20,544.25.
There is however no grounds to
let this dampen your enthusiasm for
while we lost first place for the week
at the same time we jumped York
and Florence Counties for second
place in total sales for the year.
The thing to note is the constant
and consistent progress, having
started on the climb in total sales we
have never fallen back a single time
and from information now at hand
the people of Horry will see Lo il
that she leads in weekly sales in the
next report.

WAR SAVINGS j
| STAMP NEWS
???- j
How did that headline "Horry
Leads Again" in the sale of War
Savings Stamps, read to you? Did
you help do it? i
?w.s.s.?
A War Saving Stamp costs you
only $4.20 this month. You'll not be
bothered with pennies. And its
v. $3.00 Government Bond too. Get
busy and buy one of them.
?w.s.s.?
The last Report from headquarters
showed that the people of Horry
county had tins year already invested
$106,747.50 in War Saving
Stamps. Fine isn't it? But do you
know we proposed investing $000,000
in them. Long way from home,
.aren't we?
?w.s.s.?
When you signed your pledge to
buy stamps, you doubtless did so
very cautiously because you didn't
know what tobacco was going to do.
\*.... ii'lint if ili/l fillil I'lllt
i \J 1.4 livy DL V_ U nut IV VII\I I mv V
have you increased your pledge?
Sonic haven't even bought any of
tliose they pledged.
?W.S.S.?
We know of one patriotic fanner
' who actually offered some of his
land for sale in older to redeem Iris
War Saving Stamp pledge. That's
I patriotism, because saciifice is attached
to it. Have you made any
sacrifice to help your Government?
?w.s.s.?
Some one has stated that the
money so far invested in War Saving
Stamps in this county represented
investments by those who saw
good business in so doing, coupled
with a desire to help. To carry Horry
"Over The Top" in this thing,
somebody will have to make some
sacrifice. Are you ready to do it?
?w.s.s.?
The Government says that a person
can own only $1,000 of these
stamps. But that doesn't mean you
have nearly done your duty when
you buy the limit, if you have other
members in your family who want
the stamps and you are able to buy
them. One man we know of subscribed
$1,000 for himself and every
member of his family. He'll havI
>0,000 in these stamps.
?w.s.s.?
Have you yet reported the purchase
of your stamps and gotten
your button? If not, do so. If you
have, wear your button; show it to
your friend and get him interested.
?w.s.s.
One of the most helpful things you
can do to help your Government is,
after you have bought all the stamp-;
a - A 1 a- 1. - i.
you can, to go oui ana try to get
somebody else to follow your exam
pie. Lots of good fellows are doing
this and giving their time from thenown
work too. Its a good thing to
talk about when you meet a fellow,
anyway.
?w.s.s.?
Did any of your rusty dollars
which you have accumulated out ot
war profits while the other fellow
gave up his Lmir.es.> to fight for you
and your business, help the boys capture
those 8,000 German prison' iv
the other day? When you are br.igf.
ng about how line the "boys over
there" are doing, think about what
you have done to help them.
?w.s.s.?
Surely thoro arc more than 17 persons
in Horry county who are able
and willing to lend $840 to their Government
for a little while and get a
$1,000 worth of War Savings Stamps
in return. So far only that number
have reported and gotten their buttons.
They are called "Limit Men"
because they have purchased all the
Government will permit ONE man to
buy for HIMSELF. The following
joined the "Limit Club" and got their
buttons last week:
W. C. Hooks, A. L. Hardee, W. B.
Chesntut, G. M. Jollie, D. M. Burroughs,
J. J.Williams, W. W. Russ,
J. A. MeDermott, Mrs. E. L. Edwards,
Geo. J. Holliday.
If you can't purchase a thousand
dollars worth of these stamps, you
can doubtless get in the "$500 Class."
The following joined this club last
week:
Wm. Page, Mrs. Mary Etta Page,
C. A. Cartrette, W. C. Adams, A. W.
Barrett, T. G. Owens, Return Page,
Mrs. Arrie Page.
One of these $500 purchasers for
mcrly lived in Horry, diu nas lor
some time been working for the Government
in Virginia. He came home
this week and while here purchased
$500 worth of the Stamps to help out
his old home. That's fine, isn't it.
?w.s.s.?
It is important after you purchase
your stamps to report this fact to the
Council of Defense and get your button.
The following joined the $100
club last week: Geo. W. Thompkins,
Samuel Strickland, W. J. Hendricks,
Stanley AHm, J. J. Cox, G. B. Por

FINE TOBACCO RETURNS.
J. G. Hardee, a progressive farm- 1
or of Loris, planted four acres in tobacco
for the crop of 1918, and from i
his crop cleared, free from all ex-1'
.lenses, about the sum of $1,409.00. I '
Mr. Hardee planted wheat in the!
*t! 1 < f 1917, but had bad luck with it I
and did not produce much; but he!]
will plant wheat again this fall and I
will, no doubt, raise a fine crop for j
harvest next spring.
W. M. Hardee, a son of J. G. Har- ! ]
dee, had better success with tobacco! (
this year than his father did. W. M. J
Hardee has recently been called into
military service and sent to the j (
camps, leaving about one-half of his j <
tobacco crop still ufvharvested. His; j
iYther completed the harvesting for 1 (
him. W. M. Hardee had bought aj<
farm for the sum of $1,000.00, entire-?
ly on credit, and his father pays that
the crop has cleared a sufficient amount
to pay ofr the land debt and he
will have the place entirely free from {
debt. !
