Draft Board Reviews War Work.
1Continved from first page)
y-seven men were
Loup Lee, Va. This
body of men peing divided into § Com-
its Captain, 2 Lieuten-
ants, Sergeants and Corporals, all under
the com one of their number
who was appointed as a Major and who
was the Yeposiiory of induction papers,
transportation and meal tickets for 157
men, resposible for the discipline
and obedience of the men enroute
This group of men marched to the de.
pot un heir own officers, in proper
litary formation, entrained each com-
to its assigned car, placed guards
at each door allowing no one to enter or
leave , rechecked their separate rolls re-
ompanies intact, which report
was delivered to the Board by the Major.
The Board takes this occasion to com,
ment on the high spirit of co-operation
manifested by this Military Committee
whose duties were arduous but faithful
ly and efficiently performed.
i The Board had a photograph taken of
every quota entrained.
For the entertainment of draftees be-
fore entrainment the Board appointed
the following committees :—
Capt. Robt. F, Hunter, as chairman,
J. Will Conley, as Financial Secy. &
Treasurer ; Capt. William H. Brown,
William Burnside, Thomas Hazel, C. Y.
Wagner, Edmund Blanchard, J. Linn
Blackford, John J. Bower, William T.
Kelly, H. C. Yeager, Col. J. L. Spang-
ler, W, Harrison Walker, Major H. L.
Curtin, Col. H. 8. Taylor, Judge Henry
C. Quigley.
This committee took charge of the
several functions connected with the en-
tertainment of the soldiers during their
stay of 24 to 48 hours in Bellefonte, A
special banquet was arranged for each
quota on the night previous to entrain-
ment, during which entertainment, pat-
riotic speeches were made by various
public spirited men of the town, includ:
ing George H. Yarnell, D. A. Grove, Dr,
L. E, Ride ler, Hon, Henry C. Quigley,
Col. H. 8. Taylor, Edmund Blanchard,
Esq.. Col, J. L. Spangler, W. Harrison
Walker, Major H, L. Curtin and Capt.
Robert F. Hunter. Speeches, singing
and a general good social time was had
on each occasion which seemed to add
materially to the spirit and morale of the
men at this trying period.
One of the duties of the entertainment
committee was to appoint a sub-financial
committee with solicitors, collectors and
treasurer, and while the draft was made
from the entire County, the burden,
which was not so considered came large-
ly if not entirely upon the good citizens
of Bellefonte. The ready response by
the citizens of the town to this feature
enabled the committee to carry out for
each quota rather elaborate demonstras
tions as they left for their camps,
When the quota was sufficiently large
parades were were organized
and advertised generally throughout the
County, and on every occasion large
numbers of people were in attendance to
view the parades that were made up of
citizens, local Military SoupanY: Fire

ways participating and being most im-
= | pressive and spectacular feature of the
§ parnctes.
One of these events it was found neces-
sary to hold on the Sabbath Day on ac.
count of the men being called on Satur-
day and ordered to entrain the following
Monday. This being the largest contin-
gent sent and it was decided to give a
mammoth demonstration, In order not
to antagonize public opinion or religious
sentiment the various ministers of the
town were consulted as tothe advisabil-
ity of holding this demonstration on the
Sabbath Day. After the circumstances
were explained (being the only day
available) these ministers gave their
hearty approval to the movement, A
grand stand was erected for the speakers
and ministerium to view the parade,
Provisions were made for the parents,
relatives and friends of soldiers in the
way of rest rooms and other accomoda-
tions which might be denied them ordi-
narily due to the large crowd, This pa-
rade especially mentioned here as typi-
cal of our system, had no less than 7
bands of music. On this as on all occa.
sions the Red Cross contingent.was plac-
ed as a Guard of Honor next to the sol-
diers, the selective service men occupying
first place in the line, preceded only by
a platoon of color bearers, carrying the
National Colors of the various nations
allied together in the great struggle and
this headed by the Chief Marshall and
his committee and band, which on this
as on all other occasions was Capt. Rob-
ert F. Hunter, his aides being the enter-
tainment committee enumerated above,

| Getting the Records of Penn'a Way
Heros.
A personal record of every Pennsyl-|}
vanian who has entered the national
service is the goal of the Pennsylvania
War History Commission. A War Ser-
vice Record blank has been prepared
and nearly two hundred thousand copies
already have been circulated, Of the
thousands which have been returned to
the files of the Commission, nearly fifty
per cent, are accompanied with photo-
graphs, letters from the front or camp,
and similar material,
The Commission is being assisted in
distributing the blanks by the county
branches of the Pennsylvania Council of
National Defense, by local honor roll
committees, by historical societies, by
war welfare agencies and by local
officials,
The Commission will send copies of
the blank to any individual or organiza-
tion desiring to report upon soldiers,
sailors, nurses and other persons who
have entered the national service.
Probably three hundred and fifty
thousand persons have gone from Penn-
sylvania into the service. Some have
entered the armies or navies of the Al.
lies ; some have gone with the National
Guard, volunteers ; others have
entered the service under the draft acts,
The Commission wants a record of every
jone of persons. Some famlies
have already removed from the States;
and with changes industry many
more may § countries. It

THE WORLD SHORTAGE
of LIVE STOCK
A census of cattle in France
reveals a decrease of 17 per
cent in beef animals, 38 per cent
in sheep and 40 per cent in hogs
gince December 31, 1913. Italy
has suffered a loss of 21 per
cent of horses, 18 per cent for
mules, and 8 per cent for swine,
No one can even guess what the
decrease In Germany, Austria,
and Russia has been, but it must
be enormous. According to a re-
liable estimate the decrease of
live stock in all Europe is equal
to one-half the amount of live
#tock In America today. This
estimate places the loss at 100
000,000 head,

The total production of grain crops ia
Pennsylvania during 1018 was 81,301,188
