FLIITON$ OFFERED
DIS EXEMPTION BOARD
Oklahoma City Okla April 18—
It claims for exemption- from mili-
tary service with the national army
that have come under the jurisdiction
of ths district appeal board for the
western district of Oklahoma are
any criterion the ingenuity of the so-
called “draft-dodger” has been se-
verely put to it at times to think of
some likely story to bolster up his
claim While the legitimate claims
have been many and in no case have
been refused there also were many
who made rather unusual claims to
their right to “stay at home where
they are needed”
Claims of registrants who have
contracted marriages since the selec-
tive service laws were promulgated
that they were needed at home to
support dependent wives have been
numerous but by no means in the ma-
jority One man wanted his claim for im-
munity from service granted on the
ground that he was an “expert watch
repairer” A great many watches in
the territory formerly covered by his
vocational activities will go unre-
paired until the allied powers emerge
victorious from the war as the “ex-
pert watch repairer” has gone to do
hs part A fellow-claimant who had
stolen a watermelon in his early
youth and had suffered incarceration
in his county “bastile” for one night
insisted he was morally unfit to serve
his country in any capacity
Another registrant was “too busy”
to report for examination when call-
ed by his local board and “did not
think they really meant it anyway”
He declared himself possessed of a
belief that the “government can’t
be really in earnest about this
thing”
A great many business houses it
appears are dependent for their very
existence on the activities of their
male stenographers At least this is
true of the concern that employs the
stenographer who said “they will
simply have to go out of business
stenographers are too scarce” Claims
of this sort were well represented in
the list of “excuses” and “reasons"
One young man whp on applies-
tion for a position with an express
company had signed an affidavit giv-
ing his age as 21 years and had reg-
istered with the rest of the nation on
June 5th 1917 to back up his bluff
had a difficult time proving his real
age when called to account for not
answering a call by his local board
Newspaper reporters should be ex-
empt in the opinion of one regis-
trant He firmly asserted that
through his paper he was supplying
the public with war news which it
could not well do without
Claims of exemption on the ground
that the claimants are attending
schools of religious instruction and
theological seminaries are almost as
numerous as the-claims of those who
have recently acquired “dependents”
One registrant presented four dif-
ferent claims in as many days but
all of them failed of substantiation
On his first appearance before the
board he declared that he had recent-
ly been honorably discharged from
the regular army and had taken un-
to himself a wife When told that the
board would like to review his dis-
charge papers he departed hastily
On the following day he presented
himself as morally unfit this excuse
failing he was given more time Sub-
sequent claims that he was a "preach-
er” and then a “farmer” failed to
get his exemption
A claim presented by a “calf buy-
er” for a large packing house that
men of his chosen calling were un-
usually scarce an assertion that sol-
diers must have candy and that the
claimant was engaged in manufac-
turing that commodity for “the boys”
and the claim of the many who are
subject to “fits” — all were included
in the category of the board’s would-
be “evaders”
One man was unfortunate enough
to have two wives dependent upon
him for their daily bread He had
been exempted in the first draft be-
cause of his wife After his exemption
had been granted his wife obtained a
divorce When called under the new
questionaire system it was discover-
ed he had married again this time to
a woman with a child He was sup-
porting his present wife and child
and was contributing to the support
of his former wife he said
The “morally unfit” the “watch
repairer” tjre "necessary newspaper
reporter” the “candy manufacturer”
who supplied the boys the ‘scarce
calf buyer” together with the equal-
ly “scarce” stenographer — all are at
national army cantonments
If I Were a 'Farmer
If T were a farmer I would keep
at hand a few reliable medicines for
minor ailments that are not so seri-
ous as to require the attention of a
physician such as Chamberlain’s Col-
ic and Diarrhoea Remedy for bowel
complaints
Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy for
coughs colds and croup
Chamberlain’s Llnlme n t for
sprains bruises and rheumatic pains
Chamberlain’s Tablets for stomach
troubles biliousness and constipa-
tion This would require an outlay of
only $110 By having these articles
at hand it would often save the trou-
ble of a trip to town in the busiest
season or in the night and would en-
able me to treat at sight slight ail-
ments as soon as they appear and
thereby avoid the more serious dis-
eases that so often follow

SCOUTS KEEN ON WAR WORK
A notable feature of scouting in 1917
was the pronounced recognition of the
organization as an aid to the govern-
ment in the conduct of the war
“Before the war a boy’s greatest
ambition was to be quarterback on tbe
football team or pitcher on the base-
ball team or captain of tbe athletic
team” said Chief Scout Executive
James E West
"Today 295768 of the huskiest boys
In America find plenty o excitement
und satisfaction In being Just scouts
This is because' playing games Is a
side Issue In wartime and scouting is
v real Job
“When men are marching away to
battle for liberty real boys are not
satisfied to play When bridges manu-
facturing plants public works In every
town and city are In danger from for-
eign foes genuine fellows wan( to do
their share In protecting their homes
“With starvation ' destroying our
friends overseas and want threatening
in America an American boy who Is
the real thing wants to get bis exer-
cise by producing food
“The Boy Sconts of America are
linppy because Uncle Sam did not pass
them by when he rolled up his sleeves
and began to gather bis forces The
department of agriculture said We
need you’ and In n month thousands
of scout gardens were growing' The
treasury department said 'We want
your help' and in two Liberty loan
campaigns the scouts gathered more
than $125000000 which had been over-1
looked by older canvassers and are
now hard' at work selling War Sav-
ing stamps The food administrator
said ‘I’d be glad of your assistance'
and a third of a million scout homes
cut Down on wheat meat sugar and
fats and began to spread the doctrine
of food conservation They are also
‘government dlspatfli bearers’ for the
committee on public information
“There’s more fun In being a scout
than in all the athletic sports com-
bined for it is real work — needed ex-
pected and appreciated by the nation”
MEN CAN BE SCOUTMASTERS
Uncle Snm must have the service of
organized boyhood to win the wnr
The Boy Scouts of America are offi-
cially working in conjunction with the
government In the selling of War Sav-
ings stamps and Liberty bonds Pres-
ident Wilson lins tnmle each boy scout
In the country his dispatch bearer on
bis Important messages to the people
Boy scouts are the reliable olds
of the Red Cross and the Red Triangle
These boys are in many cases doing
the patriotic service of a man
Theodore Roosevelt says “The duty
of being a scoutmaster comes next in
Importance to being in active service’’
Scouting makes the boy “physically
strong mentally awake and morally
straight” This U the type of citizen-
ship this country must have
The ravages of war weaken the na-
tion for generations Scouting Is the
best remedy for this weakness Scout-
ing Is outdoor life and will keep one
young It Is the best of recreation
It gives a new slant on life It opens
a new world of practical information
What is more splendid than the com-
panionship and loyalty of a group of
fine American boys? The busy man
makes the best scoutmaster No man
is too busy to be a patriot
Scouting Is the new patriotism based
upon loyalty to God nnd to country nnd I
service to other people
SCOPE OF SCOUT SERVICE
Those manly youngsters organized
as the Bgy Scouts of Americu com-
mended themselves to the public from
the start says a Southern editor They
are called upon to render important
service on every large occasion and
their willingness discipline and effi-
ciency have been remarked with com-
munity pride by observant citizens in
general '
The scope of sedut service is all the
while widening As helpful to city
state and nation as tbe organisation
has been within the last six months In
Liberty loan Red Cross and food con-
servation campaigns greater still will'
be its activities In this new year The'
scouts will be utilised by tbe federal
government In many ways
The boys are always on their mettle
and they never tire of duty No trained
soldier could be more obedient to or-
ders and none should be more loyal to
bis colors
The wonder Is how any city got
along as well as it did before tbe boy
scouts came Into corporate being And
the more the public eeea of them the
more sympathetic will be Its support
All honor to the scouts and the scout-
masters who Instruct and lead them
OY SCOUT THRIFT SHOP
The scouts of Omaha have again
made themselves felt In the scout
world They have started a “Boy Scout
Thrift Shop” A cobbling clasa has
been formed and alt tbe people of the
community have been asked to turn
over to the boy scouts all old and dis-
carded shoes

Washington April 19— Ten thous-
and or more student-officers who to-
day have completed their course of
training at national army canton-
ments and national guard camps will
not be graduated and given commis-
sions but will be placed on an elig-
ibility list from which In order of
their ratings they will be commission-
ed and called to service as the army
needs them
The men are exclusively noncom-
missioned officers and privates of the
National army National Guard and
regular army or students from col-
leges having military courses in the
curriculum
Until called to duty as ‘ officers
these men will wear white brassards

aminations of those who passed all
other tests began on April 9

numerous
Remedies: Jarring and brushing
are old methods and of some avail in
the early season but cannot be de-
pended on to control the Insect Tbe
very best mixture for this insect is
the arsenate of lead spray which con-
sists of one-fourth pound of arsenate
of lead to six gallons of water
The Brodeaux mixture is compos-
ed of four lbs of blue stone four lbs
lime with three lbs of lead arsenate
to fifty gallons of water will control
both insects and diseases

SHIPMENTS AND GET IN BAD
: ' i i ii
Several -dealers in potatoes hsrs re-
fused to receive shipments lately and
as a 'result the Food Administration
lor Oklahoma has recommended to
the National Food ' Administration
that their licenses be revoked
' The main complaint made by the
firms was that potatoes had advanced
In price since the orders were placed
In some instances dealers maintained
that the shipments were not in good
condition in such cases the Food Ad-
ministration offered to determine the
amount of damage andthls offer was
accepted -
Potatoes are a valuable article of

Austin Tex April 19 — What the
women will do in the question that
is perplexing Texas politicians The
answer will be given July 27
The recent special session of the
legislature passed a bill giving Texas
women tbe right to vote in primaries
and nominating conventions This
act will become a law June-2$ and
the women then need only to register
to be eligible to vote in tbe primaries
July 27 The law requires them te
register 15 days before the primaries
After 1918 the women most pay
the poll tax — $175— in addition to
registering before they can vote On
account of the poll tax some contend
that the toUl vote cast this year by
the women will be heavier than in
coming years ’
Data ia not available' to ahow Just
how many women are of voting age-
However since the male voting
strength of the state is 610000 it is
believed that of the women equals
this amount and possibly exceeds it
Dased on that assumption politicians
express belief that the women1 will
poll from 400000 to 600000 votes
in the July primaries
In estimating the female vote
however It is pointed out that the av-
erage Texas election calls out only
about 50 per cent of tbe potential
male vote Many express belief that
the women will not cast more votes
than the men
Women’s Clubs oer the state al-
ready have begun an active campaign
to educate the women in the art of
marking their ballots properly and
are urging them to turn out in full
force and vote The fact that many
women in the rural districts muBt
travel from ton to fifty miles in or-
der to register it is believed will cut
down the vote in those sections
It has been unofficially contended
that the law giving women the bal-
lot is unconstitutional because it ap-
plies only to the primaries and leaves
them barred from participating in
the general election Whether a test
of the law’s constitutionality will be
made however Is problematical
The fact that the law contains a
provision that the ballots cast by the
women must Bhow the sex of the yot-
er by having the word “women”
printed thereon will in the opinion
of proponents of the measure pre-
vent the election from being nullified
even if the law is held unconstitu-
tional since the records would show
how the women voted
While the candidates are interest-
ed in prognostications relative to the
number of votes the women will cast'
their chief concern Is how they will
vote Will the married women in the
main vote as will their husbands or
will they cast their ballots independ-
ent of the “head of the family”
Being unable to answer tbe ques-
tion the candidates are not overlook-
ing the new voting strength In their
campaigns Much campaign litera-
ture is being adderssed to women
