On the same basis about 3200 of them will be exempied because of de- pendents. An estimated 320 are al- ready serving in the armed forces of the United States Other reasons, including exemp- tions of farm workers, industrial workers, aliens, and draft evasions, together with the exemption alread cited, will eliminate altogether ap- proximately 65 per cent of all those of draft age, leaving approximately 2.800 Centre Count’ men to be cali- ed to war service in event of a gen- eral mobilization. On the basis of its World War ex- perience, the Army high command would be surprised to find more than 120 men out of the entire 8.100 of draft age in Centre County who would either attempt to evade the drafl or desers, NOW, se that we will be tteewomen of the county are invited to meet the group At 4 p. m. the party will stop al he crossroads as Port Matilda be- ore continuing their trip west to Tyrone mags Saat —— IMPORTANT !
