Tuesday, yesterday and today were appointed by the Board for the ap pearance of those called in the first army draft. The Board is sitting at its offices in tlie First National Bank bui'ding, Burlington. Altraance's quota on the first call was 165 men, and 330 were summoned from whom to select the number required. These men were summoned to appear in three squads of 110 each on the three several days. As yet it is not learn ed what percent of those called have passed such physical examination as will be acceptable to admit them to the ranks. Some have been turned down for reasons which incapacitate them lo the lile of a soldier. Not a few have filed applications for ex emption, some of them having rea sonable grounds upon which to base their claims, while others ak-fcroat ter of fact have no grounds at all worth considering. The task of the Board, so far as it is empowered to allow exemptions, is not au easy one. There are those who will ask the Board to favor them on personal grounds, perhaps, but they forget that the Board has a con science and that it has a sworn duty to perform for the government, and that no personal grounds will have anything to do with exempting or not exempting any of those who may be called, 'ltie Boord is the govern ment's agent and it will deal with each case on its merits, regardless of whom its decision affects. This is the only course it can pursue and maintain self-respect and the respect of tbow with whom they will deal in the discharge of their sworn duty. Lawyers' Services Free to Soldiers.

GENERMDDW HOI 181 TROOPS MAJOR GENERAL WILL"""HAVB NOTHING TO OO WITH TRAIN ING OF MEN. 0 - ANNOUNCEMENT SURPRISING , 1 New Ordar Issued By Department R» lieving All Commander* of Thai Duty.—Supervision of Training te * Devolve on the Dlvlalon Officer*. An announcement that will be r» celved with a great deal of Interest and no Inconsiderable disappointment, particularly throughout the south, U that making It known that MaJ. Gen Leonard Wood, now commander ol the department of the southeast and the ranking officer of the United States army, will have nothing to do with the training of the of thousands of young men to be sen# to the train' lng camps In his department. And just as General Wood will be relieved of any connection with the training of the men, so will the other department commanders be relieved of that responsibility, and the duty of supervising the training of the great number of young men to make up the army being prepared for the war with Germany will rest upon division com manders, of whom there will be scores and who afe yet unnamed. This is due to an order recently is sued by the war department, which, op to this time, has not been pub lished, taking the duty of supervising the training of the men at the va rious camps away from the depart ment commanders and placing It with the division or camp commanders, who will be at the various training camps. Therefore, with the arrival ol troops at a camp In any of the de partments, the responsibility of the commander of that department for the discipline at that camp, lta rules, regulations, or any connection what ever with the camp will cease except, of course, that he will continue to be commander of the department, but that department headquaretrs will be come really little more than a supply depot, storeroom, or quartermaster's depot. And as Is General Wood relieved of this responsibility In the department of the southeast so art the other de partment commanders, Generals Bell, Barry, Parker and the others, who are the highest officers In the regu lar army.
