and Carpenters In Demand
Word has boon received from the
naval recruiting office at Omaha that
men or draft ago whose draft num
ber is so low that they will not bo
needed in the current quota, may
still enlist in tho navy. The depart
ment is still in need of men, espe
daily, men with any kind of mochnni
cal training, and all such men are
urged by the - department to enlist
at once.
The following advice has been re
ceived by tho local exemption boards.
"Upon presentation to a recruiting
officer of a certificate by his local
board to the effect that his class and
order number arc so low that he is
not within the current quota of his
local board, any registrant may en
list volutarily in the navy or in the
marine corps and thereafter, upon
presentation by the registrant to his
local board of a certificate of a com
missioned officer of the navy or
marine corps stating that he has
been so enlisted, such certificate
shall be filed with tho Questionaire
and the registrant shall be placed in
Class V on the ground that he is in
the naval service of the United
States."

recruiting office is here quoted for
