SECOND DIVISION .
THE FIRST THIS MONTH. Wellington, Friday. The first ballot of members of the Second Division of the Expeditionary Force Reserve will take place on Monday, October 29, when a selection from Class A will be made. The selected men will not go Into camp until three mouths later. About 4000 men have been transferred from Class A to other leaving some 15,000 in the first class, and these should be sufficient to fill at least two reinforcement drafts. Owing to the promised furlough to the survivors of the Main Body having been cancelled, it is understood that the monthly quota of reinforcements will shortly be still further reduced. It is stated that the Class Cl men and the men whose appeals were adjourned sine die, but are now being called up, will practically be absorbed by January. A few men have received extended leave until after the harvest.
