those who in all reasonable likelihood will be in the first
draft---or rather as Portland has her full quota of enlisted
men—in the second draft.
No one can tell when these
young men will be ordered to report, but it is quite conceiv­
able that it may not be for some time yet.
Those who
follow will be ordered to report in the numerical order in
which ihey are chosen, in batches which may very likely
affect the boys in Mount Scott about fifty at a time.
Of
course every registered name has been drawn, although there
are manifestly some errors in this newspaper report; the im­
portant fact is to ascertain the order in which they are
drawn.
As to when those chosen among the 3000 or the
7000 or the 10,000 will be ordered to report one man’s
guess is as good as another’s, bat it is thought that in all
human probability the war will be over before those whose
names appear towards the end of the list will have been called
for examination.
