While the local exemption board is without information on the point, the press dispatches from Washington in dicate that enlistments recently made in_the regular army or national guard will be deducted from any quota that a district is designated to fill under the draft system. If this be true, this town should get off on the first draft, for many furnished for the branches of the service mentioned. Enlistments have been very heavy, too, in Putnam, t the remainder.of the towns in he Aistrict Thompson. Woodstock, Tastford and Ashford have not made mueh of 2 showing in furnishing vol- inteers. visw of this fact, the question ariaes, do these last mention- ed towns get the benefit of the enlist- ments furnished in Killingly and Put- nam or 1 Woodstock, Thompson, Eastford and Ashford be required to furnish most of the men called under the draft? The auest n an interesting one if consider~d on the basis of an equal distribution of the do-youlf-bit plan. The pl=in fact is that the great ner. " A F.

Relative to the jams and Jjellies wanted for the soldiers in France, the following was given out Tuesda: A requenst has been received from Miss Rose Dwyer, the expert on men- ingitis and nerve shock, for jellies and jams for use in France. Miss Dwyer has been asked by the federal govern- ment to undertake a mission to France to work among the soldiers and civil- fans who are suffering from nerve shock She writes that the most im- portant food in these cases is sugar, and that without sufficient sugar there today of can be iittle hope of recovery. The cases not alone among the sol- diers, They include many pitiful cases among the children of the ravaged regions of France. Miss Dwyer can secure the transportation of the jelly and jam to France, and she asks that each woman, in putting up these pre- serves, set aside 4 jar for these pitifu cases of nerve exhaustion and nerve shock. Women having jam or jelly to donate can either take or send it to suffrage headquarters in Hartford, or if this is inconvenient they can communicate with the- chairman of their county or the president of the nearest equal suffrage league and some plan for the collection of sucl jams and jellies will be devised and carried through by the central war work com- mittee. At the high school, in the domestic science room, there is on exhibition at present quantities of beans, peas, fruits and many other products thaf have been canned or otherwise pre- served by the young people who hav been taking a course there this season.
