Draft Names in Carter County
From the Current Local, Van Buren Mo. Dated July 26, 1917 (typed in order as written)
NAMES OF THOSE DRAWN Order for Liability for service made by lottery List of Registrants in Carter County Given in Order as Drawn for Service in Draft Army

Below we publish a complete list of all registered men in Carter County in the order in which they are required to appear before the county exemption board. Although there may be a few errors due to the tediousness of the task of placing the names in their proper order, the list is approximately correct. The list as printed below contains the name of every man who was registered in the count, the first quota of 26 to be supplied from the head of the list, and in the event more troops are needed for the prosecution of America's part in the war, the name of every man appears on the list in the order in which he may be called later. It is thought that about 75 men will be called before the exemption board before the first quota of 26 is secured. The latest estimate by the War Department is that 60 percent of the men called before the district boards will be exempted if they claim exemptions. The order in which those registered for service will appear before the board as follows:
