DRAFT INFORMATION
Except to fill vacancies In
calls already made, no more
men will be drafted from Ore
gon or other states hefore Feb
ruary 15. As all questionnaires
will be completed before that
date, this will give men taken
hereafter, except such few as
may be needed prior to Febru
ary 15 to fill vacancies, the ad
vantage of the new classifica
tion system.
Very few men would have
been taken from Oregon in any
event prior to the next draft,
which it is now announced will
be not earlier than February 15
This is one of only 10 states t,hat
have already filled theilp quotas
In the first draft, barring a few
vacancies caused by rejections
at the training camps.
Future draft quotas are to be
filled first from Class 1, compris
ing men without dependents.
They will be drafted from de
ferred clarifications nly when
Class 1 is exhausted, thus mak
ing it necessary to go to the
next class for enough men to
fill up the quota.
An exception to this will be
made in the case of experts and
men highly skilled in agricul
ture or industrie8. It is announ
ced that the Government son
will call or a large number of
men of this special class. They
will be taken as needed for such
special work from whatever
classification they may have
been granted.
A limited number of officers
not now in active service, and
retired officers of the Oregon
National Guard, who are phys
ically fit and between the ages
of 23 and 47, are eligible for en
listment as privates first class
for attendance at the next Of
ficers' Training Camp8, which
begin January 15. Official word
to this-effect has just been re
ceived by John M. Williams,
Acting Adjutant General, from
th eChief of the Bureau of Mil
itia Affairs at Washington, with
the request that It be given pub
licity.
Applications for the camps by
such officers must be approved
by the Bureau. Those qualify
lng at the camps, which will be
held in Southern California and
tlfe Southern States, will re

WAR SAVINGS
ri'War Savings Stamps mark

man has "aid that tho saving of
his first dollar was tho most
Important act of his life; that
it marked tho beginning of a
habit and a course of conduct
to which ho attributed his suc
cess. Something very analogous to
this it is believed, is going to bo
tho effect on the American Na
tion of the War Savings cam
paign. Not only aro millions of
individual citizens going to be
gin to save, but this habit of
economy and saving is going to
be a collective movement, a
movement nt of individuals
alone but of the Nation.
Tlie habit of saving former
now has a deeper Incentive than
ordinary. We are saving now
not alone for selfl8h reasons.
We aro saving now from patri
otism, saving not alone for our
selves but for our country. The
combination of patriotism and
thrift is, indeed, going t make
the War Savings campaign an
epoch in our national life. It is
not only going .to be a thing of
tremendous benefit to millions
o.f citizens, It is ging to be a
thing of tremendous advantage
to the Nation as a whole, and.
affect our whole national life.
It marks the beginning of a new
era in American life, an era of
economy, good sense, and pat
riotism.

who pretend to be ashamed of their
vices, but who nre really nlmast proud
of them, To feel like that and to nil
