anatory Announcement by the
Minister of Justice
THE MILITARY SERVICE ACT has received -the assent of the
Governor-General and is now part of the law of the land. It will be
enforced accordingly, and the patriotism and good sense of the
people can be relied upon to support it. Resistance to its enforcement,
howeverby word or act must and will be repressed, as resistance to any
other law in force must be.
Reinforcements under the Military Service Act
immediately required
it is the intention of' the Government immediately to exercise the
power which the Act confers and to call out men for military service in
order to provide reinforcements for the Canadian forces. This is neces-
sary since the military authorities report that the reserves available or
in sight for reinforcement will shortly be exhausted unless this step be
taken.
First call limited to men between 20 and 34 who were
unmarried or widowers without children on
July 6, 1917
The present call will be limited to men not in the schedule of excep-
tions who were unmarried or widowers without children on 6th July,1917i
are at least twenty years of age, and were born on or since January lst,
1883. Of this Class all those will be entitled to conditional exemption
whose services in their present occupations, agricultural, industrial or
other, are essential in the national interest, and whose business or domes-
tic reponsibilities are such that serious hardship would ensue if their
services be required. Conscientious scruples based upon a prohibition
of combatant service by the articles of faith of the religious denomination
to which men belong will also be respected. The men first required to
serve will consequently be those who can be called upon with the least
disturbance of the economic and social life of the country,
Civil Tribunals to deal with exemptions
Questions of exemption will be determined, not by the military
authorities or by the Government, but by civil tribunals composed of
representative men who are familiar with local conditions in the com-
munities in which they serve, who will generally have personal knowledge
of the economic and family reasons which those whose cases come before
them have had for not volunteering their services and who will ,be able
sympathetically to estimate the weight and importance of such reasons.
Provincial Appellate Tribunals constituted from the existing judiciary of
the respective provinces will be provided to correct mistakes made by
Local Tribunals, and a Central Appeal Tribunal for the whole of Canada,
selected from among the present Judges of the Supreme Court of Canada,
will be constituted in order that identical principles may be applied
throughout the country. In this way every man may rest assured of the
fair and full consideration of his circumstances and the national require-
ments both civil and military.
Proclamation will announce the day
A proclamation will issue calling out the bachelors and widowers
referred to and fixing a day on or before which every man must report for
service to the military authorities unless he has before that day made an
application for exemption.
How to apply for exemption
Applications for exemption may be made by written notice on forms
which will be available at every post office, and will be transmitted free
of postage. They will not, however, be required to be made in this way,
but may be presented by the applicants in person to the exemption tri-
bunals, The cases o£ those who have given written notice in advance
will take precedence, and appearance in person will therefore be likely to
involve considerably more inconvenience and delay to the men cons
earned, so that it is recommended that advantage be generally taken of
the facilities for written application.
Ottawa, September 11, 1917,
Exemption Tribunals in all parts of Canada
The local exemption tribunals will be constituted with the least delay
possible, consistent with the selection of representative individuals to
compose them, and the instruction of the members in their duties. There
will be more than one thousand of such tribunals throughout Canada, each
consisting of two members, one of whom will be nominated by a Joint
Committee of Parliament, and the other by one of the Judges of the
existing Courts. Every effort will be made by the wide distribution of
tribunals, and by provision where necessary for their sitting in more than
one place, to minimise the inconvenience to which men will be put in
obtaining the disposition of their cases.
A Registrar will be appointed in each Province, who will be named
in the proclamation and to whom enquiries may be addressed. Each
Provincial Registrar will transmit to the appropriate tribunal the appli-
cations for exemption which have been submitted in advance of the sit-
tings, and men who have sent these in will not be required to attend the
tribunals until notified to do so. Outer applicants should attend per-
sonally on the tribunal without notice.
How to report for service
Men who do not desire to claim exemption will report to the military
authorities for service either by mail or in person at any time after the
issue of the proclamation. Forms of report by maiiwill be found in all
post offices, and, like applications for exemption, will be transmitted free
of postage, -
Early report advantageous
No man who reports for service will, although he may be medically
examined and passed as fit, be required to go into camp or join a battalion
until after a day fixed by the proclamation sufficiently late to permit of
the disposition by the local tribunals of most, if not all, of the applica-
tions for exemption which may come before them. Thus no advantage
will be gained by delaying or disadvantage incurred by prompt report for
service on the part of those who do not intend to apply for exemption.
Facilities for immediate medical examination
Immediately upon the issue of the proclamation, medical boards will
sit at every mobilization centre for the examination of men who report
for service or who, subject to their right within the time limited to apply
for exemption, desire to have their physical fitness determined in order to
allay any doubt as to their physical condition, or to know definitely and
in advance whether there is a possibility of their services being required.
Certificates of physical unfitness issued by these Medical Hoards will be
accepted without any further investigation by exemption tribunals when
they sit. Men found physically fit who have not reported for service
may nevertheless apply for exemption on any of the prescribed grounds,
including even their physical condition if dissatisfied with the Medical
Board's conclusion.
Notice to join the colors
As reinforcements are required, notice to report to the nearest mobil-
ization centre will be given from time to time to the men found liable and
passed as fit for service. Disobedience of such notice will render the
offender liable to punishment, but punishment for failure to report for
military service, or to report subsequently for duty when called upon;
will be imposed ordinarily by the civil magistrates; offenders, however;
will remain liable for the performance of their military duties notwith-
standing any civil punishment which may be imposed and will be liable
to military punishment in cases in which civil proceedings are not taken.
Watch for the Proclamation
Notice of the day appointed for the making of a claim for exemption
or for report for military service will be published as widely as possible,
but, as no personal notice can be given until the individuals called out
have so reported themselves or claimed exemption, men possibly,'con-
cerned are Warned to inform themselves with regard to the day 'fixed, -
since neglect may involve the loss by them of Important privileges and
rights.

HOW T,...KEE
LL
r BY JOHN W. 8, McOULLOtJGH, M.D., D.Y.H,, CHIEF OFFICER
Ote THE PROVINCIAL BOARD OF HEALTH.
HERE are five chief ways in which disease spreads. These are:
Water, hood, Flies, Milk, and Contact. These sources of infection
are intermingled with one another. tet us look into them and
see how disease travels from one person to another. •
The source of all water supply comes from the rain and
snow. Next we find it in rivers, streams, ponds, and lakes, stored in the
ground in the form of springs, and in underground stretches of gravel
whence it is obtained frol'1 deep or shallow wells, When a water supply
is being considered it must be judged (like the character of a
WATER person) by the company it. keeps. Any source of water supply
cannot be pure if it is exposed to the entrance into it of sewage
(the discharge from the bodies of human beings), This may occur in a
-variety of ways; for example, a stream,river, or lake which would other-
wise be pure, may have the sewage of a towndumped into it, or there may
be water -closets upon its banks, or the excreta of a typhoid case may be
thrown on the ground nearby and washed by melting snow or rain into the
water. A supply from such a source, unless purified, is a dangerous one. It
might be safe for every day of the year but one; the pollution on that ono
day might start an epidemic of disease. The well may be unprotected,
allowing surface water to enter, or 1t may be sunk in a creviced limestone
rock which serves as a means whereby sewage may reach the Water. The
commonest diseases carried by water are Typhoid Fever, Cholera, Dysentery,
and Diarrhoea (or Rammer Complaint). In this country the commonest
water-borno disease is Typhoid Fever. -
N e ,0 -
Food frequently carries disease because it becomes contaminated
FOOD by flies, dirty fingers, and by mouth . or nose -spray of carriers or
.persons affected by disease. Meat containing the germs ,of tuber-
culosis or the larvu.e of certain worms, if insufficiently cooked, may carry
disease.
Flies breed in manure, chiefly in fresh horse manure. They will not
breed in fermenting manure which is too hot for them. A period of eight
to eleven days is required to carry the fly from the egg stage through the
maggot, larvae, and pupae stages to the full grown 'fly.' Tho fly
'PLIES will not travel groat distances if there 1s- plenty of food at hand,
but if hungry it may fly for some distance, say half a mild or more.
One can easily understand how this insect may parry disease when one con-
siders its well-known habits of flitting from the exposed contents of the
water -closet to food in the kitchen. Diseases such as Typhoid, Dysentery,
Cholera, Diarrhoea, and Tuberculosis are common/3, carried by flies.
By milk from tubereitlons cows children may become infected with
Tuberculosis; or, if the handler Is a consumptive, the disease may be car-
ried to the users. Similarly, if those ;handling milk are in contact
MILK with diseases like Scarlet Fever or D1'phtherfa, these diseases may
be earl led. Washing of cans with sewahle-polluted water, or dilution
of milk with polluted water may serve to infect the milk, and, in turn, the
consumers with water -borne disease8.
* * s
Contact with either the actual victimI of diseases like Tuberculosis
and communicable affections, or with "carriers" of -such diseases is aver,'
common means of infection. Those who collie closest In contact with
sufferers from eommunleable diseases are the greatest victims,
CONTACT 'Thus in cases of Diphtheria the mother, the nurse, and the
doctor suffer infection in the 0rdlr famed, It used to be
thought that Tuberculosis was inherited becaues members of the same
family often (lied one after the other. Now it is'eell understood that Tuber-
culosis 18 a "Catching" disease and: that it is the close contact between the
members of the family, living, eating, sleeping together, using the same
table 1l tensile and the same towels, Which is the cause of the terrible family
mortality irons this disease. The better this is known the bettor is the
Chance for prevention of 'Tuberculosis,
