A. P. Woodward to The Rescue. There was a clamor among regis- tered Young men here Friday after- noon for information about their draft numbers, but no official information was available. Although the press wires were ticking off numbers in a steady stream to newspaper offices in nearby cities ro information could be here, for the exemption board members were without any informa- tion on the subject. Ithough th were expected, under their instructions, to 1 out immediate notice to the men to report for examination. P. Woodward, who happened to rwich, came to the rescue in ftarnoon by telephoning sev- _\.)=< of numbers to his store These numbers proved to be of terest and were hurriedly nd compared with the official list at the post office to ascertain the first drawn men.

LETTER CARRIER AMONG FIRST TO BE DRAFTED Killingly Young Men Among Those Drawn. In the Putnam column this morning is prin 2 list of the first numbers drawn in Division No. 16, which in- cludes Danielson and all of the town of Killingly. There are 128 names in the list, and & heavy proportion of them are of Killingly men. This list is compiled from early wire reports.Friday on the drawings, but is not the official list, which the exemption board members do not cxpect to recelve before Mon. aay 3 In all probability, however, it is sub- stantially correct, although the offieial list ay show some changes. Every section of the town of Kill- ingly is hit in the first 800 numbers of the draft, from which the list here- with was compiled. he post office force had a time of it Fridas aftermoms looking up numbers and answering questions of the young men whose draft numbers were shown by early wire reports to have been called Incidentally, Harold Greene, of the carrler force 'of the local post office was among the first to be drawn from this place.

Interest was at fever heat here Fri- day afternoon among young men who registered for military service under the @elective act, and when the wires began to tick off the numbers the men liable to be drafted were on tip- toe of expectation. Every bulletin on the progress of the drawing was scanned with the most eager interest and as a number that meant the drafting of some well known and popular youth about town ‘was announced, there was a chorus of exclamations. The drawing really brought home to the young men of this city the fact that the United States is really and actively engaged in the greatest war in the history of the world and that the day is at hand for those who are to fight its battles to answer the call. At the office of Charles L. Torrey, member of the exemption board for thig district, a list of men who will be first summoned to appear was com- piled from the red ink numbers by matching them with the numbers coming in the first returns on the draft in Washington. s Herewith is the list that is of epecial interest in this dictrict.

Main Street, Norwich, eays: “I have used Doan’s Kidney Pills off and on for a number of years for attacks of kidney trouble and rheumatic pains. The pains had settled mostly in my back, across my kidneys, and at times I could. scarcely get around. I could hardly stoop or straighten on account of the pain when taken that way. My kidneys have acted irregularly and the secre- tions have been unnatural. At such times I have bought Doan’s Kidney Pills at Sevin & Son’s Drug Store and they have always removed the pains and regulated my kidneys.” Price 50c, at all dealers. Don't sim- ply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan's Kidney Pills—the same that Mr. Neft uses. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfgrs., Buffalo, N. Y. ————— Grosyenordale. 1818—Charles J.
