that where trains are cut at crossings

It wI11 be greatly to the advantage of Canada if the entire quota of 100,000 men to he raised under
Me Military Service Act can be secured from the first class; that is, from the mon between the eget of 20
and 34 who were unmarried or widowers without children on July 61h, 1917.
This is almost self-evident for the following reasons:
it is admitted that, between the ages of 20 and 34,thc average man is at the heightof his
physical strength and is most adaptable to the change of conditionsfrom civilian life;
the military service of unmarried men and widowers without children would occasion less
distress than that of most others, since they are largely without dependents. Also, It would
entail loss financial burJen for Canada, through separation allowances, etc.
Authorities estimate that,,after all proper exemptions have been allowed, Canada should be able to
produce from the first class 100,000 men fit for service, so the drain upon the man power of the country
will not be severe.
Members of Class One will be well advised to present themselves for examination immediately to
the Medical Board in their district. Upon examination as to their physical fitness, they will be placed in one
of the following categories: -
Category A --if fit for service; m overseas fighting units.
Category 13—if fit for service overseas in Army Medical Corps, Forestry Battalion, etc.
Category C—if fit for service in Canada only.
Category E—if unfit for military service of any nature.
