TUESDAY, OCT. 9, 1917 PAOE TWO THE FINAL DRAFT TO LEAVE OCTOBER 17 FOR CAMP Resources over Five Million Dollars. TIIE REVIEW: KEIDSVILLE, N. C. can cut down and hav j' a better roof There is no use in putting on an expensive roof .when you can get a better roof and save real "money by using Certain-teed Roofing CERTAIN-TEED is the best roof, not only because it costs less to manufacture, but also because it is weather-tight, light weight, clean, sanitary, fire-rctardant, and costs practically nothing to maintain. It is now used as the preferable type of roof for office buildings, factories, hotels, stores, warehouses, garages, farm buildings etc., where durability is demanded. CERTAIN-TEED is guaranteed for 5, 10 or IS years, according to thickness (1, 2 or 3 ply). There are many roll roofings on the market, but only one CERTAIN-TEED. It pays to get the best. It costs no more to lay a CERTAIN-TEED roof than it docs to Jay a poor roof, but there is a vast difference in the wear. You can't tell the quality of a roofing- by looks or foci. Your only safety is the label. Be sure that it is CERTAIN-TEED then you arc certain of quality and guaranteed satisfaction. Certain-teed Slate-Surfaced Asphalt Shingles are nipplantinff wood and ilato shingles for resiliences. They cost less, tre just ai good looking, wear better, won't fall oil, buckle or split. They axe fire-rctardant, and do not have to be painted or stained. Certain-teeJ Paint and Varnishes are the best Quality paint materials, ground and mixed with mechanical ac curacy. Made for all uses and in all colors. With paint, as with roofing, the name CEKTAIN-TEED is a guarantee of quality and satisfaction. CERTAIN-TEED PRODUCTS CORPORATION Kew York, Cbirago, Philadelphia.

Jrniture and Undertaking The final 15 per cent of the drafted men will be railed October 17. The entire 687,000 men will be In cantonments and under Intensive traning by November 1. This information was made public at the war department today together with the fact that within the next two weeks President Wilaon will is sue a proclamation authorizing' Pro vost Marshal General Crowder to proceed with the examination for military service of the 7,000,000 men to be called up in the present draft. In addition it w-s stated that a new draft Is under discussion al though the conversations have not yet progressed to the point of con sidering a tentative date. What will be done, from present In dications, is the early transfer of ap proximately 100,000 men from the na tional army cantonments to national guard camps to recruit the . militia to war strength. Then a similar num ber of men will be drafted to keep the national' army camps full. Instead o another big draft such as the pres ent one of 687,000 men id is likely that a series of drafts of numbers ranging from 50,000 up will be re sorted to. These will keep the na tional army camps full as various units conclude their training In this country and eail for embarkation camps and the field in France The above draft plans are purely tentative, of course, but it has been definitely determined that the remian ing 7,000,000 men shall be examined Immediately!. There are two reasons for this, one that the war department may know to the man how great a roserve it has to draw upon, and, the other, that business conditions may be disturbed as little as possible through uncertainty whether members of firniH of valuable employers are subject to military service, and if so, when they are likely to be called out. '' The urgent deficiency bill now in congress contains provision from 4, 000,000 to 16,000,000 to cover .the ex poses of the examination of tha 7,000, 00D men. The house bill appropria ted, the smaller sum, but It assured that sufficient funds will be forthcom ing to carry out the work. As soan as the conference report is adopted General Crowder will go to the white house to discuss with the President the new regulations necessary. Meanwhile the provost1 marshal's office is concentrating ev'fcriy! energy to have the entire 687,000 called out under. the present drift mobilized by November i . ..Approximately!' 400,000 are now In the sixteen cantonments. More than 250,000 additional will begin to mobilize on Friday. By October 17 the full 85 per cent of the draft -with the exception of certain colored: conscripts will be in the 'camps and then the remaining 15 per cent., or 103,050 men will begin. In other words Amerjca will h'ave set the record of having selected ex amined, drafted, summoned and mo bilized an army of 687,000 men with in a period of little more than three 'months."'; Wthin the same length of time six teen cantonments, each housing 40, 000 men have been contracted fon built and occupied. And eaoh of the cantonments presented the same problem as building a city would have for each, in fact, Is a city a city of mann October 17 was decided upon sev eral days ago, but first word of its selection reached the public todays. General Crowder has been informed by the governors, of all the states that the complete quotas of each local board will be -ready by that time. The governors also favored, by a ma jority of 46 to 2, the plan to proceed immediately with the examination of the remaining .OOO'JO . Washing ton Special.

Tenn, Vico-Pres, American Tobacco Co. Dear Sir: . As with all other good citizens of Reidsville we have only the most cor dial and benevolent wishes for the abundant success and prosperity of the enterprises of the American To bacco Company located In Reidsville. But we deeply regret to even think of disposing of our Municipal Pow er Plant and franchise. The water plant and service is dependent upon the Electric Power Plant. Both are are efficient '.tod satisfactory to ocr citizens at rates much, less than our neighboring cities are charged. The Borvlce enters into our most Intimate economic dally life in the store, school, church, home and streets. We would lament and grieve to see the plants and franchise pass into the keeping of strangers. We wish to- ask if it would be sat isfactory to your Company, if the city, through its Board of Commis sioners, should pass such ordinances as will legalize for all time your right to purchase current for your manu fact tiring plant to supply til power and light you may need from the Southern Power Company! We beg to submit that this plan would meet every requirement ever considered or contemplated in the lo cation of your cigarette plant here. Please give us your earliest possi ble answer od oblige, ' Yours most respectfully,' YOUR FELLOW CITIZENS (Advt.) The federal reserve bulletin for September, just made public, has the following reference to business condi tions in the Richmond district: At this particular season of the year, when the crops of this district have either matured and have been gathered, or are approaching matur ity, the estimated results are som'e what at variance with predictions Droughts heavy rains, and light frosts in the past months, and per haps more important, adverse labor condi4ion, share responsibility for discrepancies. ( ' While some localities report corn thus curtailed 20 per cent, the dis trict as a whole should exceed last year's crop by 10 per cent. Wheat: and other Brains are sitirftctory. Many farmers are holding grain, not yet convinced that food control, ,rs announced, will prove workable. The potato crop is reported as of increased Meld with lower prices. Fruits, especally apples, are very sat isfactory, both in ykld and in prices. North and South Carolina should yield an average crop of cotton, with Increased prices and increased net returns. The tobacco crop will probably show cash results abormally inceas cd. Notwithstanding the fact that "earlier in the season the fertilizer sit uation inspired some pessimism, the yield hs been 15 per cent, higher than last year and prices are not only exception alt" high but fancy. The lumber' industry is more or loss depressed, transportation diffi culties and stagnation of building be ing contrlbutive. . Collections are generally good and In criany quarters far ahove the av Bank deposits in many localities show increases, notwithstanding the fact that over $80,000,000 have been paid for. the first issue of Liberty Bond The increase is off 9et, in a smaller degree than was anticipated, by an increase of loans. The issuance of the federal reserve notes for the period of la month, as compared with the crresponding pe riod of last year show an increase of 60 per cent. It would be unwise to minimize the grave importance of the scarcity of labor, and while some of our crops have been already harvested, we can hardly expect to escape loss through the Inability of planters to gather the balance before adverse weather con ditions prevail, Manufacturers may also expect difficulties until more la bor la available. for fire and casualt;, Insurance. Three per cent, on graphophone records. Eight cents on each $100 life in surance. The tax on whiskey is increased from $1.10 a gallon to $3.20. The tax on beer Is increased from $1 a barrel to $2.75.
