Quotas in Local District \ | | Twenty-five selective service men | in draft district No. 3, left for the Jefferson Barracks, St. Louis, Mis- souri, last Monday evening. They, together with a group of twenty- three men who are expected to en- train for Camp Wheeler, Georgia, on | Saturday, May 25, comprise the rem- nant of the Class I-A men in the district and include, in great part, farmers who had previously been granted extention of time to assist in the harvesting of this season's grain crops but who are called into the service at this time because of the urgent need of men for general military service. 2 A quiet but impressive ceremony accompanied the leave-taking of the men last Monday. Draft and Village officials, friends and relatives of the new soldiers, comprised the greater part of the farewell group at the Wil- mette station of the Chicago and Northwestern Railway and the boys were given a royal send-off. It is not expected that calls for men from this district will be forth- coming in the near future until other districts in the state, whose Class I-A is not so near the point of ex-| haustion, 'as is that of the local district, are relieved of more men. aa , The Red Cross By Edgar A. Guest I am too old to share the fight; Too many years have com and gone Since first I saw the morning light, My month has been and travelled on, I am too old to join the line; Far-flung today that truth shall live; I may not die for what is fine, But I;am not too old to give. I am not yet so old that I Have drifted from the world apart |- I still can hear the helpless cry, And mercy- still can reach my heart. | I still can share from day to day | The burden that our youth must bear, And I thank God that I can say The RED CROSS is my symbol there. | I am 'too old to bear a lance, Across the shell-torn Flanders field I may not go where troops advance | And death's grim terror's are re-| vealed; | But I can hear the helpless call, And I can serve them while I live And I thank God that through it all 1 shall not be fo0.0ld to give. iP Ladies Aid Benefit Mrs. Harold Bersback will speak to the public on Tuesday evening, May 28, at the home of Mrs. Charles E.
