.II NEAU. Dec. 17—Governor Strong
lies requested that the following In- (
formation be given publicity: All re-,
gistrants who have changed their post1
office address since registering should 1
immediately communicate with the lo
cal boards having jurisdiction of their
cards, giving present address, so
questlonalres will reach them with
out delay. Registrants are bound by
law to keep themselves advised of all
proceedings in respect to them and
failure to do so may result In their
losing the right to claim exemption
or discharge.
I he new regulations not only re
peal all preceding regluations. but
cancel all exemptions and discharges
which have been granted by local
boards under the present system.
This will restore every man to his
original status, and the local boards
will send a questionaire to every qian
who is not in the service.
The completion by the registrant of
this document is the first great stage
of the new system, and the difficul- .
tics which will attend it are fully re- t
cognized by the provost marshal gen- ^ i
eral, who has begun the mobilization t
of the legal talent of the country to! f
enable everyone who seeks it to re-! t
I 1
ceive aid in the preparation of his -
questionnaire. ”
Under the new regulations the Io-I
cal boards will sent out five per cent
of their questionnaires each day forj
a period covering 20 days. This meth
od of distribution will allow the local
boards, with the aid of their legal ad
visory boards and other volunteers, to
instruct, complete and file each day’s
questionnaire without the confusion
onrl ...UIaI. __1J >11_A
the effort to require a Targe number.
The new regulations also contain a j
complete set of the forms to be used
by the local boards, every form being \
printed in full, and many are com-!
pleted to serve as models.
A local board will actually use 19,
of the proposed forms. Examination
shows that most of these are postal
card forms and require but a word or
two to complete them, thus simplify
ing to a large degree the work of the
present system which requires ap
proximately 180 complicated forms.
The completion of the question
naire by the registrant will not re
quire an much work as did the simple
claim for dependency under the old
system. In it the registrant must
make a full statement of all the facts
upon which he will rely to secure de
ferred classification and upon which
I
the local board will be expected to
fix his class.

FIRE!
A resident of Cordova had a
small fire in his house the other
day. It was extinguished by the
family at a loss of $150.00. The
next day he insured through us.
The cost of his insurance for
three years was less than his
loss at this trifling fire. Are
you, Mr. Property Owner, going
to wait until you have had a fire
before protecting yourself from
loss?
