“The time for the return of the National Service cards by those who have not yet returned them or have returned them improperly signed, has been extended to March 31st, 1917, and further cards have been issued to the postmasters for distribution, among those who have made default.
It is understood that the returns from this Military District have been most gratifying. There are however, even in this district, a number who have not made their returns. The National Service Board has expressed the wish that everyone in the District will use his or her very best efforts in order to make the returns from this district as nearly perfect as possible.”
