Always trade in your home town In order to mako clear to the pub lic tho penalties attaching to attempt to evado military service under tho draft, the adjutant general, acting under orders from Washington, has issued the following letter and sent it to the Mist with tho request that it' be published: "From now on the fate of the man who tries to evade his duty under the draft lnw will bo anything but envi able. Failure to appoar for physical examination when called up by his local exemption board will not help the slackor. In fact, it will btAibout the shortest cut he could take to get himself drafted automaticr.lly into the army without further considera tion. "If a man does not appear before his local board when called unless he applies by reason of absence from his district to have his examination transferred to another board, or can glvo a very good reason why he was unable to appear his nr.me will be certified to the adjutant goneral of the stato as having been called for military service and not exompted or discharged. "The adjutant general, who acts under Instructions from Washington, will give him one more chance, and nly one, to clear Ills record. A not- i ico will be sent to tho address on his ; registration card directing him to report within Ave days, cither in per son or by mail or telegraph, to the adjutant general. If he doesn't re- ! port as directed, at the end of the j Ave days he becomes automatically ' drafted into tho army of the United ! States. Failure to appear for duty will then become equivalent to de serting from tho army. Men who desert from Uncle Sam's army in tlmo of war are not treated kindly. Thoy aro classed in the same cate gory as traitors. "Such men will be rigidly hunted down by the military authorities. They either will be compelled to serve, or court martialed as desert ers. In time of war a court martial can inflict the death penalty for desertion." A little want ad In the f-t. Helens Mist will bring results. Give them a trial.''
