QUESTIONNAIRES ARE SENT OUT

REGISTRANTS URGED TO RETURN PAPERS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. The Jasper county conscription board are sending out the first questionnaires to the men who registered on September 12. Ten -per cent of the registrants between the ages of 19 and 36 will receive their papers today. The others of this class will receive the questionnaires, ten per cent following each day until all -have been sent out. The papers are to be returned by the registrants within seven days from the date on which they are mailed. However, the board and Provost Marshal General Crowder are urging that the questionnaires be returned just as promptly as possible. This is going to make a great amount of work and as the members of the bar are to do this, there will 'be but little court held here until the questionnaires of the registrants are all filled but. The local board has received notice that twenty-eight men are to be sent by Jasper county to Camp Taylor in the five-day • period beginning October 7, 1918. Major Robert <O.
