REGISTRATION BOOKS RE MAIN OPEN UNTIL 9 P. M. Dozen or More Registrar? and Clerks at Federal Building to Wait on Those Enrolling. Throughout the United States to day hundreds of thousands of young men, possibly a million, are register ing in compliance with the order of: IVovost Marshal General Crowder, whose registration mandate requires every man who htu reached the ape. of twenty-one years since June 5, 1917, the date of the first draft enrollment register with the local .hoards of the respective counties throughout the country. In llowan the registration is taking place in the United States court room in the Federal building where half iozen or more registrars and clerks have been on duty since early morn ing. Conspiciouslv posted at the head of the stairway and in the court room are large instruction notices, inform ing those who present themselves of the rules to be followed in registering. The registration bepan early but luring the forepart of the morning the work was slow and scattering, on ly a few early caters presenting them selves but as the day passed the num-1 ber increased and up to noon quite a j huge number of young men hsd en- j rolled to be called upon if required , to do so for Yiiilitary service. Every j man who has attained his majority i since June 5th last is included in the j order of the Provost Marshal General, j married and single, white and black. There is only one registartion place in , the county, that at the Federal build-! ng here and men from all sections ot j Rowan are required to come here for , registration. The books will be open i until nine o'clock tonight and it is ex- I pected that the great majority will register during the afternoon and ear ly evening hours. The registration is similar, almost identical .with that of the first regis- j tration, when every man between the j ages of 21 and 31 years was required i to register and at which time somt j thing like ten million names were en-1 rolled. There is only one day set apart for this registration today and any one coming under the requirements who has not already called on the local board should do so before nine o'clock this evening. One noticeable thing about the pro ceeding of this registration here to day was the number of prachers who were on duty at the call of the board for men to act for registrars, three or j four of the men at work being local I preachers, while a number of busi- ness men had left their own affairs for the day to assist in this work. At 3 o'clock this afternoon 160 men had registered with the Rowan board. Of this number 138 were white and 22 colored. Of the white men registered one was an alien. W S S MEETING OF RED CROSS CHAPTER. Dr. I. E. Sharer Submits Excellent and Interesting Report From Committee On Branch Chapters. A very enthusiastic meeting of the Rnlisburv Chanter of tho Tier! Crnss was held at the Community Building lost night. In the reports that wen. submtited none created so much In terest as the report from Dr. I. F. Sheafer of the Committee on Branches. There are in Salisbury at present 20 branches having a total membership of 122-1 and they are as follows: Coolemee, Spencer, China Grove, Paterson School House, Cleve land, South River, Woodleaf, Rock well, Mt. Ulln, South Rowan, Faith, Lnndis, Morgan, Granite Quarry, East Spencer, colored. Union Church, Mill Bridge, Gold Hill, Bear Paplar and Miranda. Secretary Knehel reported in Salisbury a total membership of T17G including Salisbury Cotton Mils employes and Livingston Colege Auxiliaries makinsr a trrand' total in the Salisbury Chapter of 3,000 mem bers. One year ago the Chapter had a membership of i00 with no branches organized and it is remarkable the wonderful progress that has been made during the past year and it is doubtful whether any other Chapter in the state can equal the record in proportion to its population. The annual meeting and election of offi cers will be held on the evening of July 4th at which time a very elabor ate program will be carried out in which the representatives of Uie branches wil be asked to take part.
