N ceiving magazines from people who al- ways have the welfare of the soldiers in_mind. Sergeant Daigle told of his own ex- perience,. following- the writing of a letter of thanks, to the donor of a magazine he recetved. The donor, a woman, resident in a Massachusetts town, replying to his letter of thanks was frank enough to teil him that she was not seeking a romance and that she is old enough to be_ his mother. Rut she has proved to be almost a fairy godmother.

In this case the sufferers will be the registered men, and no amount of pleading or no set of excus- es_will save the registrants from. the penalties that the _exemption - board will be obliged: to iniliet. Although 30) questionnaires have been sent out in this district and a group of lawyers sat all day long Tuesday in the superior court offices here only 17 registrants brought the forms in to have t'»m filled out. At least 100 should have been filled out Vesterday. At Jeast an hour and a half is re- quired to rroperly fill cut each ques- tionnaire. Registrants should not and must not expect that the attorneys, who are giving up their entire time and doing the work without charge, work half the night tryine to help out delinquents who are ‘bourd to rush in the last part of the week and expect that the board can do four days’ work in one, and every questionnaire must be filled out and returned to the ex- emption board within seven days after the date stamped upon its first page. Up to Tuesday afterncon six ques- tionnaires had been returned to the office of the exemption board here. The failure of registrants to prompt- ly comply with an order that they must obey, by direction of the Unit- ed States government, is hard to un- derstand, Graft officials say. Every day adds 100 to the mumber of ques- tionnaires hat have been sent out and scores who expect to wait until the last minute to fill out their forms will find the board members swamped with : of the Putnam boys who were ‘n_the rush of enlisted men cmbled at Fort Slocum at the of last week returred to their homes here and will await the draft.
