Don't say you saw It In the newspaper. Say News-Times.

Since the N'ews-Times published lists of names this week of draft delinquents who have failed to report to their respective boards changes of address, thereby causing their questionnaires to be returned unanswered, many people have reported to the local draft hoards and the News-Times that relatives whoso names appeared in the lists have enlisted and are now in the I'nitP.i

Statej milirary service. I Local boards are obliged to make all possible effort, with the aid of ! tho local police department and newspapers, to locate men who have i failed, not in all cases intentionally. I to comply with the law in executing their questionnaires. It is unfoitunate that the men themselves, or some of the friends or relatives of such men who are now in the coun- ' try's military service, have neglect-

iuf.ii uoaru me iacis ot tne case, which would .have obviated the necessity of the registrant's name bej ing published as a delinquent. The

hoards have no means of knowing that these men have enlisted, and it is only by tho aid of the police department and newspapers that the men can be located. It la not the intention of any of the above named agencies to brand all men

ayne j whose names are published as de

linquents as "slackers" until it isj known beyond any doubt that such men wilfully neglected to answer their questionnaires for the purpose of aoiding military service. List.i of names of men who are reported

I to 1 e in the army or navy will be

published later, thereby removing any misunderstanding regarding them that might be entertained by some . people. The latest to be reported is Fdvard J. Hartzer of S4.. Forest a v., who is now in France with the ."OSth quartermaster's corps. Harzer enlisted in South Per.d Nov. 21.
