Women Replace Men in Seattle Stores and Offices
Manager Beck notes women fill department roles and improve service as men depart. Other firms train women to take over until draft orders end, with Sperger & Hurlbut and Standard Furniture among hardest hit. Reading meters and messenger work shift to women as the city conducts a wartime employee survey and England lists exemptions by industry.

New Draft Rules Recognize Father’s Right to Child Support
Washington reports new draft regulations affect deferments for men with children. A baby born from a marriage before January 15 1918 qualifies a father for deferred classification if the marriage occurred after June 5 1917. The rules also limit deferment for marriages contracted after January 15 1918 and clarify class assignments for those who married since March 18 1917.
