STEELTON BOARD
IN FINE SHAPE
Local Body Is More Handi
capped Than Any of the
Three in This Vicinity
The local Exemption Board of Dis
trict No. 1, Dauphin county, with
headquarters in the Light unci Power
1 Building, to-day concluded the ex
; aminution of 1,100 men, tho second
largest number ol' men examined in
the county. Out of this number 255
will be chosen from those that pas?
physically and will be sent to Camp
Meade. The members of this boar?
are: County Commissioner C. G
, i Cumbler, of Hlghspirc, chairman: Dr.
, j Bayard T. Dickinson, Steelton, and Al-
I len Drawbaugh, Steelton. Walter
Keister, Steelton, is chief clerk of the
board. Tho work accomplished by ;
I this board has been remarkable, con-
I sidering the handicaps and obstacles
I that have had to bo contended with.
! There is no district in Dauphin county
I where there are so many colored men '
and aliens. As the regulations of the (
| draft law does not make any pro- i
visions for those of that class who ]
pass has made the work doubly dif
ficult. These men have to be exam- .
inod, certified or discharged and final
ly held until orders are received from •
headquarters regarding their dis- 1
disposal. As a result many of the j
white men who have numbers \
long after these men have been sent
to Camp Meade, while these men are
awaiting orders. The board has had '
considerable difficulty in securing the 1
necessary number of white men, but 1
I the situation has been cleverly i
handled so that at the present time ,
practically the entire quota has been .
secured and is being held in readi- :
ness for service.
The clerical force of the board con- '
slsts of three girl stenographers and I
two men, and is the mcfst adequate in j
the county. The work of tabulating, ,
| listing, making out exemption papers,
discharges, physical reports, etc., re
quires a great amount of detail, and ;
the Steelton clerical board is well up- '
to-date with its work. [

Mules In Demand.—Prices for
j mules in Pennsylvania are soaring
because of the heavy demand due to
the war, according to price reports
coming to tho State Department of
Agriculture. In many cases prices
are double and triple what they were
three years ago and districts where
mules used to be generally raised
have been unable to supply farmers
and contractors. Good pairs of
mules have been so much in demand
that some farmers report a dozen or
more offers for them this summer.
The situation in regard to the mules
developed because of Inquiries made
at the department for information as
to where to buy tho animals. One
result of the scarcity of mules is an
ineVease in the use of motor ma
chinery, it is reported at the capitol.
