7-,1.- IVIo FvJ
And 1 do further proclaim and
frive notice to all persons subject to
registration in the several states and
in the District of Columbia in accord
ance with the above law that the time
and place of such registration shall
be between 7 a. m." and i) p. m. on the
fifth day of June. l'JIT, at the regis
tration place in the precinct wherein
they have their permanent homes.
Those who shall have attained their
twerty-first birthday and who shall
not have attained their thirty-first
birthday on or before the day here
named are required to register, ex
cepting only odicers and enlisted men
of the regular army, the navy, the
marine corps and the national guard
and naval militia, while in the serv
ice -of the United States, and officers
in the officers' reserve corps and en-
iis'.cd men in the enlisted reserve
corps while in active service. In the
territories of Alaska, Hawaii and
Porto Pico a day for registration
will be named in a later proclama
tion. And I charge those who through
sickness shall be unable to present
themselves for registration that they
apply t,r before the day of regis
tration to the county clerk of the
count where they may be for in
structions as to how they may be reg
istered by agent. Those who expect
to be absent on the day named from
the counties in which they have their
permanent homes may register by
mail, but their mailed registration
cards must reach the places in which
they have their'permanent homes by
the day named herein. They should
apply as soon as practicable to the
county clerk of the county wherein
they may be for instruction as to how
they may accomplish their registra
tion by mail. In case such persons as,
through sickness cr absence, may be
unable to present themselves person
ally for registration shall be sojourn
ing in cities of over o0,((.i0 popula
tion, they shall apply to the city clerk
wherein they may be sojourning
rather than to the clerk of the coun
ty. The clerks of counties, and of
cities of over 30,000 population m
'.Iiich numerous applications from
he sick and from nonresidents are
expected are authorized to establish
uch sub-agencies and to employ and
deputize such clerical force as may
e necessary to accommodate these
ipplications.
a;icr.s, Not Armies, in This War.
Tire power against which we are
arrayed has sought to impose its will
upon the wo-rld by force. To this end
it has increased armament until it
has changed the face of war. In the
sen. e in which we have been wont to
.is.', of armies there are no armies
in tnis struggle. 1 Mere are -entire
nations armed. Thus, the men who
remain to till the soil and man the
factories are no less i part of the
armv mat is r ranee tnun tne men
beneath the battle flags. It must be
so with us. It is not an army that
.ve must shape tind train for war; it
is a nation. lo this end our people
roust draw close in one compact front
airainst a common foe. Put this can
not be if each man pursues ji private
purpose. All must pursue one pur
pose. The nation needs all meii; but
it needs each man, not in the field
that will most pleasure him, but in
ike endeavor that will best serve the
common good. Thus, though ;i sharp
shooter pleases to operate a tripham
mer for the forging of great guns,
and an expert machinist desires to
march with the Hag, the nation is be
ing served only when the sharpshoot
er marches and the machinist re
mains at his levers.- The whole na
tion roust be ji team in which each
man shall play the part for which h"
is best fitted. To this end, congress
has provided that the nation shall
be organized for war by selection and
that each man shall be classified for
service in the place to which it shall
h"-,t rcrve the general good to call
hint.
. The. significance of this cannot be
oer..latea. .It is. a new thing in our
history and a landma'ik-in our'prcg-
ress. Jt is a new manner oi accept
ing and vitalizing our duty to give
ourselves with thoughtful devotion to
tire common purpose of us all. It is
- !ir no sense a conscription of the un-
willing; it is rather, selection from a
nation which has volunteered en
masse. It is no more a choosing of
those who shall march with the col
ors than it is a selection of those who
shall serve an equallj necessary and
devoted purpose in the industries
that lie behind the battle line.
The day here named is the time
upon which all shall present them
selves for assignment to their tasks.
It is for that reason destined to be
remembered as one of the most con
snicuous moments in our history. It
is nothing less than the day upon
which the manhood of the country
shall step forward in one solid rank
in defense of the ideals to which the
nation is consecrated. It is import
ant to those ideals no less than to the
pride of this generation in manifest
ing its devotion to them, that there
be no gaps in the ranks.-
It is essential that the day be ap
proached in thoughtful apprehension
of its significance and that we accord
it the honor and the meaning that it
deserves. Our industrial need pre
scribes that it be not made a tech
nical holiday, but the stern sacrifice
that is before us urges that it be car
ried in all our hearts as a great day
of patriotic devotion and obligation
when the duty shall lie upon every
man, w hether he is himself to be reg
istered or not, to see to it that the
name of every male person of the
designated age is written on these
lists of honor.
In witness whereof I have here
unto set my hand and caused the seal
of the United Suites to be afirxed.
Done at the city of Washington,
this ISth day of May, in the year of
our Lord one thousand nine hundred
and seventeen, and of the independ
ence of the United States of Amer
ica, the one hundred and forty-first.

IAGANIZATION IN
INTEREST OF THE
ARMY Y. ft C. A,
lroni Paturtlay'j ra;ly.
The Y. M. C. A. throughout the na
tion has done a great deal of good
in the military camps jmd reservations
in which the troops of the national
guard have been stationed since the
commencement of the Mexican diffi
culty, and their splendid work has
been recognized by the government
and by the men who have served in
the camp? and who rejilize what it
means to have a homelike place such
as the Y. M. C. A. provides for the
men j'ny boys.
The enlarging of the army and
the calling to the colors of millions
of new troops means that tne asso-
jition will be compelled greatly to
increase tneir taeinties to care ior tae
comfort of the men and to provide
i.hem with surroundings that will add
r. tljeir physical and moral better
ment. In order to do this the national
association of the Y. M. C. A. is pre
paring a. compaign that will, it is
hoped, result in the creation of many
now buildings in the places whe-e
the soldiers are to be gathered under
the conscription act. It will require
the sum of S3,000,000 to equip the
new buildings that are desired, and
this sum is divided tfiro.'gh the
different states, and Nebraska hr
been assigned the sum of $''0,000. To
aid in securing the sums needed for
this splendid work the' has been
created county councils that will act
with the state association. The mem
bers named for Cass county are Henry
A. Schneider, C. A. Rawls and E. H.
Wcscott. The movement will be taker,
up throughout the county and effort";
made to make the movement a sue'
cess. Contributions for the Y. M. C.
A. work will do a great deal for the
betterment of the boys in the camps
of the country jmd give them an op
portunity of enjoying clean moral en
tertainment and the proper surround
ings as nothing but the Y. M. C. A.
can possibly handle, and "for this rea
son there should be no holdine back
from assisting in the good work.
