However, this did not dampen their enthusiasm or determination, as Illus trated by the cheery remark of one reg istrant, "Well, it may be a rough road to Berlin, but I am a good pedestrian." Spanish .War Veterans Conspicuous among the many eliglbles enrolling today were hundreds of Span ish War veterans, their service bars showing on their coats, They felt no little .pride in demonstrating that they are ready to "take another chance"" for Uncle Sam. Philadelphia's quota was augmented by 3000 registrants In prisons, charitable Institutions and asylums. The ward ens and superintendents of the various institutions, being appointed as regis trars, under the law deputized a number of their assistants and the work of en rolling the men began at 7 o'clock. As a patriotic move .to facilitate registration the Stock Exchange was closed today. Many Philadelphia brok ers were among the registrants. Similar motives piompted the Bus pension of all the civil courts here today. Many Judges, clerks and tip staves were subject to the new draft. Saloons Not Closed However, the saloons throughout the city an ere open today despite the request of Governor Brumbaugh that they re main closed dvrlng tho registration. In accordance with the request ot General Crowder, supported by a procla mation by Mayor Smith, there was a gen erous display of flags and other patriotic emblems in all sections of the city in honor of the new registrants. "Let every band play," said General Cro'wder, Three- bands from the navy yard were 'on the Job' at the North Plaza, City Hall- Within the City Hall, In the Mayor's reception room and the general registra tion bureau. Room 030, many men were In line for enrollment, despite the re quest that they should go to other reg istration booths, unless they were non residents. For the most part, the local boards selected the regular polling places In their districts as registration bureaus. Four local beards did not find this ar rangement convenient, and .either en rolled the men. at the headquarters or at schoolhouses In their districts. Local Board No, 22, presiding over the Twenty-sixth Ward, was among this number. All the registrants In that sec. tjon signed up at tho board head quarters In tho Fifteenth street nnd Sny der menue pollco station or tho Third Regiment Armory, Broad and Wharton streets.

Board No, 0 Ituiltat The honor of enrolling the largest nuota of men today; fell to Local Board No. ; Twelfth "nnd Pine streets. This board, having taken over the duties of Local Board No. 4, since, suspended by order of President Wilson, receives credit for a double quotas-more than 1E.O00 men. , However, the largest single board quota rightfully belongs to Local Board No. 37, .with .headquarters att Twenty second street and Hunting Park avenue. The official estimate said that this board should today accept 7930 men. t In addition to the regularly desig nated registration places, large Indus-. trial plants In this city and Its vicinity opened special enrollment bureaus at their establishments. As the men re ported "to work this morning they seized the opportunity to register. Small groups ot workmen, from time to time during the day, took advantage of the plant bureaus. Local Board No. 6 established one pf ihese bureaus, In the Curtis Building and did a rush business from the start.
