It will be greatly to the advantage of Canada if the entire quota of 100,000 men to be raised under the Military Service Act can be secured from the first class ; that is, from the men between the ages of 20 and 34 who were unmarried or widowers without children on July 6th, 1917. This is almost self-evident for the following reasons : it is admitted that, between the ages of 20 and 34, the average man is at the height of his physical strength and is most adaptable to the change of conditions from civilian life ; the military Service of unmarried men and widowers without children would occasion less distress than that.of most others, since they are largely without dependents. Also, it would entail less financial burden for Canada, through separation allowances, etc. Authorities estimate that, after all proper examinations have been allowed, Canada should be able to produce from the first class 100,000 men fit for service, so the drain upon the man power of the country will not be severe. i 3 Members of Class One will the Medical Board in their didtrict. one of the following categories : . Category A--if fit for service in overseas fighting units. Category B--if fit for service overseas in Army Medical Corps, Forestry Battalion, etc. Category C--if fit for service in Canada only. Category E--if unfit for military service of any nature. : If not placed in 'category A, the applicant will know that he is not liable for immediate service, but will go to the Pot * Office and in a claim for Sasnplion with his Medical Certificate attached, when he will receive in due course a certificate of ca . exemption until those in his me. tegory are summoned for service. a man, who is placed in a here from postmaster, applicant will be informed be well advised to present themselves for examination immediatel to Upon examination as to their physical fitness, they will be plied in category A, feels that exemption should be allowed, an application form can be secured form, when filled in, will be forwarded by the postm to the regi of the district, and the by mail as to the time and place for the ideration of his appli by the E Board.
