to the fac t that a number of the lo-

cal boards throughout the state have withdrawn the certified lists of regis

boards the first five percent of the men to go will have to be chosen from volunteers. Already in the local divisions a number of men have signified their intentions to volunteer for the first percent. These men were drafted hut would not be required to leave until about the middle of the month. The reason for the number of boards through the state withdrawing their lists of registrants, seems to have been occasioned by the newspaper reports that the original regulations relative to exemption had heen chanced because of depen dants. According to the letter received from Jesse Ksehbarh. state conscription agent, there has been no change In the original regulations and exemption is wholly a case of dependency. Th" lits certified by the local boards to the district board at La-

porte some time ago nas not as yet been returned, and members of the

local hoards are still "up a tree" as to which men are to be notified. It! is thourht that the volunteer system j

will hold good for the first few days, unless the men refuse to volunteer and then they will have to be given written notice. Division No. 2 finished its certified list for the men chosen from the second call Saturday and this list will be immediately forwarded to Andrew J. Hickey. chairman of the district board at Importe. Division No. 1 will not have its list certified until the first of the week. Hxemption appeal commissioners are beginning to receive more work

"The statistical work of the bureau also is an important part of the activity of the organization. The whole scheme of distribution Is based on statistics gathered in the T'nited States and abroad. This work is undr Mr. Kngman's direction. "We feel that the work of the export license bureau is of tremendous importance." said Mr. Kngman. "as it is the war method of conserving our commodities for our own use, of equitably distributing the surplus among our allies and of preventing shipments into Germany." Mr. Engman will return to Washington Tuesday.

DRAWS $500 FINE AND FARM SENTENCE

Joseph Vallo, 4 IS Lincoln way K.. was sentenced to ISO days on the

penal farm and a line of $.'00 and I

costs on a charge of adultery in city court Saturday morning. He was convic ted on the testimony of three girls. Etta Bauerman, Sadie Smith and Ethel Fielder, each of whom admitted improper relations with him. The girls were sentenced to 10 days each in the correctional department of the Indiana women's prison. Vallo's attorney says the charge is entirely "trumped up" by a man from North Dakota by the name of Smith, who, he says, ran away with Vallo's wife and child. A damage suit for $in,oio for alienation of affections has been filed in North Dakota by X'allo against Smith, and Vallo claims that Smith has spent considerable money in forcing this ca s. X'allo will appeal to the superior

i court.

Marx clothes to satisfy you

A T a time when every dollar you spend ought to be looked at twice before you part with it, just remember that you ought to look more than twice at what you're going to get for it. Hart Schaffner & Marx have based their whole business on the belief that all-wool is best for men's and young men's clothing; that cotton mixtures, though somewhat cheaper, are not economy. They have maintained a strict all-wool standard in spite of steadily rising

costs of fine wool, in the face of the clamor for cheaper clothes, that the men and young men of America share this belief that best; is real economy.

Good clothes, like everything else, cost more than they formerly cost, all-wool is best and cheapest in the long run, you ought lo have it.

means more style, more service, more satisfaction. It's worth the price.

In spite of the war the weavers of England, Scotland, Ireland and America have supplied the wool goods for these clothes. We believe we are upholding and strengthening the call for economy in offering these all-wool clothes, with an unlimited guarantee of satisfaction. We're Ready With New Fall Suits
