uumber drawn, jvajj placed at the
top of column one of the Master
List, and this order was followed
unt'l all of the numbers drawn,
were comoiled in the exact order
a which they were drawn. Part
11. page 199. Selective Service
Regulations, provides as follows:
"T.,e Master hist controls
and determines the exact or
der In which the persons whose
registration; cards are ini the
possession of the respective
loci boards or may hereafter
be received by said local board
are 1'able to be called by the
local board for military service.
"Immediately upon receipt
of these regulations place a
cnecf mark after every nuni
oer In the Master List which
at the present time appears in
the 'Serial Number' column on
Form 102.' i
"Thus, it ia seen, tne new Selec
tive Service Regulations presuppos
ed tne fact that the order numbers
had oeen determined under the old
regulations, as Form 102 ia the of
ficial form for listing the order
numoers as determined thereunder.
But the order numbers haying not
been assigned in Alaska, at the time
the new regulaitoiia Decame effect
ive, there was no course left open
for the boards in the Territory ex
cept to determine the order num
bers by comparison of the serial
uunn^er list with the Master List,
as provided in part 11 and sections
6S and 69 of the new regulations.
"This assginment of numbers
takes the place of the formal draw
ings under the old regulations, the
list compiled from the original drav»
lb i* held at Washington being deem
e«* 'o be equivalent to a general
draw.ng of all nuinioers correspond
ir • therewith in the possession of
everv board throughout the United
States. The order in which; these
numners were drawn, together with
the class number of the registrant,
determines the order in which each
man s required to re&ort for mili
tary duty. I 1 .
"L » way of illustration, supposing
that 'lie registrant who holds the
v'-st i.umber drawn ia classified,
when nis questionnaire is returned
iu Class 1, he will be the first man
ralle-l by his board for military
;iu\v, and supposing that the second
r°g.!sirant whose number was drawn
by the same board, being Order No.
2, is classified In Class 2 when his
;|ua?tioniiairo is returned, the board
ivould skip over him when it calls
its quota for service, and call the
next number classified in Class 1.
In .his way, an registrants in Class
I wUl be called and examined as
o their qualifications for military
iervn-e, before any of the regis
rat.ts in Class 2 are called. Then
ill of the registrants in Class 2 ,
vould be called in the order in
vn-C" their numbers appear on the
>rde- number list, before those in ;
21ass 3 are called, and so on, un- j
:il Class 5 is reached which, is a
jermanently deferred classification,
>eing equivalent to permanent ex- .
'mnt'On or discharge.
*'!u other words the group of reg- |
stnnts within the jurisdiction of ;
sich local board is taken to be the ;
ltiit 'o be classified. Within each
■lass (lie order of liability is deter- ;
nine;1 by the drawing, the order i
ium'<er being the distinguishing
nar'- which identifies ea«hi regis- ,
ran* for service in the same classi
'icaticn, while those of the lowest i
lassification are called first and (
hose of the higher classifications

SPHAGNUM MOSS GIVEN*
TO UNIVERSITY TO BE
USED IN THE AVAR
Seattle, Feb. 18—Sphagnum! moss
vhith grows profusely in the Pu
Sound country, and Alaska, Is
vanted for use as an absorbent in
he hospitals behind the battle lines j
t; France, according to a bulletin j
ssued by the botany department of
.tie University of Washington.
Hikers of the Northwest now
jenerally spend their Sundays in
he forests and bogs gathering
iphaguum instead of roaming the
sills and valleys. The mountaineer^
l Seattle tramping organization, has
uraed a large quantity of the
noss over to the University to be
er.t overseas.
Sphagnum moss, when dry, will
ibsorb twenty times its own weight
vithout dripping. The moss has
ibsorbent powers far greater than
rt'on, it is claimed.
In preparing tie moss for hispital
isf, pads sir inches square are
terilized for use as dressings for
rounded. These moss dressings are
onaidered very useful fpr bad burns
nd splint pads for fractures.
Through the University of Wasli-^
d?ton several thousand mosg dress
ses have been shipped; to France.'
Jl the work on shipment was done
v volunteers.
The moss is generally to be
:uud In cranberry marshes and in
r»t places in the forest. The young ■
;afv gtems are most desired.
