MARRlAGETiCENSES All members of the county bar association, a numbeY of stu 7 dents in the law collega ut the university and several competent men of the city, are to be drafted into government service In the near future, to help registered men In the filling out of the questionulies. The latest Instructions from Washington concerning the classification, were to the effects that the local boaids are to call on as many attorneys as think necessary to help the men in the ie- spectivc dhislons in getting the questions answered propeily.

At the last meeting of the Lancaster bar association a resolution, was unanimously adopted, in which tho members plcdgeJ themselves to do this work without pay. There are about one hundred members In the association and It would mean that each man would have to advise about seventy drafted men, If every registrant in the city Is to be hi'lped Tho calling in of the extra help f'Otn the university, and mon in the city, will mnke this work somewhat HglV-er for the lawyers. Eveiy registrant will iccofrve instructions to report to a certain law- i at the name limp he receives hib questionnaire. This lawyer al- leady have been inatiucted how to make out the questionnaire propeily and will, because of this, be able to saAe ci'th registered man a large amount of time and at the samp timo InsuiQ the coriect filling out of the question shoots. A legal advisory board composed of A W.

Richardson, J. J. Ledwllh and L. A- FlansDurg, has been appointed to see that the work IH 11 only dts- tiibuted among the lawjejs and othei men d.sxftcU Into the advlsoiy work Not only because he is a year 'behind on his rentals, but for the further 'reason that he appears to be pulling backward in the matter of. food conservation.

J- MePhenm will not be allowed to hold the lease on two sections ot- state school land In Logan county an already been advertised for re-leasing on December bv the board of educational lands and funds, and now Land Commissioner Shumway has a letter from Chairman It, Baker ot the Logan county defense council, saying that McPherrin allowed 200 acres of small grain, mostly wheat, to stay out in the snoeK until It has rotted, sporuted, frozen or otherwise spoiled. He is the only man In the community, Baker says, who did not get his grain in. He declares that lack of help cannot be given as an excuse in this case. "There is soma other reason, Chairman Baker continues. "This man la not leaily an alien enemy, out If he ever did anything to help us out I would like to hear of it.

In the food pledge card campaign he scratches out all the printed matter on the card and wrote in the following: "We have forgot more about conserve and saving than this outfit that is making so much fuss about it will ever does not seem to me that a man who feels this way in times like these should be entitled to very much consideration from our state." Land Commissioner Shuraway's records disclose that McPherrin owes the tate $185 for his last year's rent of the school land. Mr. Shumway may undertake to have the damaged grain sold, it It will bring anything, and apply the proceeds on the debt. McPherrin has latelj tried to renew his lease on the two sections, but under the law he cannot do so after DEATHS Samuel H. McKec, used 94.
