I want the mothers to do it, and then, if that appeal meets with response from one single woman, we must build on that certainty of goodness in that woman, and help her to an honest occupation and a peaceful, self-respecting life.

For the soldiers themselves, faced with the temptations to sexual evils, Mrs.

Bartlett Crane says: Appeal to the patriotism of our boys to keep their lives clean. Tell them they must not be slackers and traitors in the perpetual fight evory generation has to put up for the life and well-being of the next.

In the tiling of appeals from the decision of the district board to the president the adjutant general has subjected the district to the same obligations as the local boards in the filing with the higher body the reasons lor the disallowing of the claims. The following is the relative number of men to be certified back to the local boards; the lirst column consisting of complete Quota; the second column, number sent in first five per cent contingent; the third column, number to be sent between Sept.

Al though the board has not considered such letters seriously in rendering decisions the statements made have been referred to the appeal agents for investigation. Modern machinery has also played a part in securing favorable actions upon the claims of farmers.

Members of the board have said that the presence of modern machinery upon a farm Indicates that the farmer Is progressive. It has been the purpose of-the board to relieve the farms of no labor which might hold back the farm's best production. Few claims have been received in which the farmer claiming discharge did not have a farm of large acreage. William i. Parker.

Leslie, a mail carrier, appealed the decision the Jackson county board on the grounds that he was physical unfit for army service. He claimed to have hernia and that he had been compelled to wear a truss. The board made a personal examination of the case. It was found that the truss was new and had not yet been soiled by wear. nor were there marks of the long wearing of a truss found upon the mail carrier's body.

The physician found a slieht traco of hernia but declared that it was of a nature which would not hinder the man service in the army nor did it warrant the wearing of a truss. 1 he following claims for discharee were allowed: Daniel D. Dickie. Albion, farm laborer. (Until Dec.

Bond, West Branch, CERTIFICATION JACKSOX, Sept. 13. "Won't you do your bit in this terrible war, and leave the soldiers alone?" This is the pith of a wonderful appeal to the scarlet women of the country, which Rev. Caroline Bartlett Crane, chairman of the Wom an's committee, Michigan division. Council of National Defense, and also chairman of the Woman's Committee on War Preparedness, ap pointed by Governor Sleeper, asks the mothers of soldiers to make, as a means for their protection.

Mrs. Bartlett Crane suggested this appeal as one means for the solution of the terrible problem of ven ereal disease Wednesday afternoon. at a South Michigan conference called by the mayor and health officer of Jackson, for the purpose of discussing this phase of military camp protection with special reference to Camp Custer. And at tho close of the conference proper. meeting of the women in attendance was held to discuss Mrs.

Crane's sug gestion. Mrs. Crane, in her appeal, assumed the common humanity of these women, and asked them as a fulfillment of their patriotic duty of their country and to future generations, to refrain from allowing themselves to become the menace which they might be to the men in cur army and navy. In part Mrs. Crane said: "Have we women done everything we can for the youths who are offering their lives for us.

if we make no appeal to the womanhood in even the women we most fear? "Suppose we women led by the mothers who give their sons to their country's service were to make an address to these other women: "You are American women. Our flag gives you protection in whatever part of the world you go. Our soru; are going to fight and to die for you as much as for us their mothers. "'We are giving our boys with as brave hearts as we can. (Only mothers can know what it costs.) If they are to die for their country, we shall be proud, however sad.

But if they are to return to us, we do not want the bitterness and shame of knowing that they are unclean, and unfit to be fathers to the next generation for whom we of today are fighting this war. "We may not always have done what we could for you. Many of us may have neglected and even wronged you. If so, we are suffering for it now whenwe think of the terrible evil that may come on our sons through you. But, whatever we have thoueht of you, we have always held one faith, that you had many traits of kindness: that you could be generous.

"To this kindness and generosity we mothers now appeal. And to your patriotism, also for if you do not listen to our apjeal, countless Doys will be made unable to fight their country's battles, or, enfeebled by disease, will fight and lose their lives. And for that, you would not want to feel to blame. "Perhaps you do not understand all the evil that is wrought to men, and through them to wives and inno cent children. But we are going to try to reach you and tell you.

and then beg you. as American women, to do your bit in this terrible war and leave the soldiers alone. However much you may iustlv blame society for the pass to which block operator for Michigan Central railroad. Charles E. Roe.
