PREFACE
The generous co-operation of the service men, their relatives and
a number of the county's citizens who were mterested m havmg
preserved for the future a record of the county's activities in the
World War has made possible the publication of this book.
The compilation has been a task accompanied by many and
varied difficulties and the publisher desires to thank all who con-
tributed in any way to its successful conclusion. A determined
effort was made to secure the photo and record of every service man
from the county. To this end extensive newspaper publicity was
given : thousands of letters were mailed out and numerous personal
interviews sought. In every instance where it has been at all pos-
sible during four months of concerted effort to secure the necessary
data that soldier's photo and record appear in the book.
In response to requests for photographs almost every possible
type of portraits was received from faded snapshots to enlargements
and it was necessary to rephotograph each in order to secure uni-
formity in size and proper grouping. Included in the volume are
the men and women who entered the service from Cass County
whether or not their home is in the county at the present time and
also those who have moved into the county since their return from
war. There are in addition a few who entered the service from
other counties and states but whose homes are in Cass County.
INTRODUCTION
Not often does a state have the chance to fight for a principle really
vital to the human race. When such an opportunity comes, a com-
monwealth lives its heroic age. In April, 1917, fate gave Iowa
her chance to strike a blow for human rights and democracy, and
her response was noble. From Cass County nearly a thousand men,
the flower of her manhood, entered the service. Many of these
boys helped stop the mad rush of the Hun at Belleau Wood; they
drove him back at Chateau Thierry and Cantigny. Like veterans
they fought and won m Lorraine, at St. Mihiel and in the bitter
struggle of Argonne-Meuse. They successfully met the challenge
of the most powerful armies the world ever saw. They shared in
the most significant victory of all history. By a devotion that has
won the admiration of the civilized world, they helped make pos-
sible a new and nobler life for humanity and a truer brotherhood of
man. We owe it to the future, — we owe it to these men, to pre-
serve the memory of their heroism.

'-^jn THE WORLD WAR
Company M, One Hundred Sixty -Eighth Infantry,
Rainbow Division
In IMarch, 1917, when war clouds were ap-
pearing on the horizon the attention of many
Atlantic boys Avas turned toward the impending
struggle and anxious to have a part they peti-
tioned the Adjutant General of Iowa for the
organization of a National Guard company here.
Owing to the fact that the Third Iowa Regiment
was tilled the application was denied. A few
days later Raymond Coker hearing that Com-
pany M was recruiting to war strength went to
Red Oak and enlisted in that organization on
April 4, 1917, two days before war was declared.
Shortly thereafter Lieutenant Briggs and
Sergeant Hoke of Company il came to Atlantic
and recruited a number more of the local boj's.
They were examined by Dr. C. B. Burke and
sworn in at his office on April 12, 1917. Several
othei-s joined them on April 18 and shortly after
non-commissioned officers of Company M began
coming from Red Oak twice a week to drill the
local detachment.
On July 4 Company M was mobilized at Red
Oak and the Atlantic boys went into camp there.
During the following six weeks they had their
first real toucb of army life ; drilling intensively
under the direction of Captain Ross they were
too busy to be troubled with homesickness or
have any worries about the future. Then on
August 18 the company was ordered to the Fair
Grounds at Des Moines where equipment was
issued and the organization of the regiment com-
pleted. It was not until the arrival of orders to
equip the regiment for immediate overseas duty
that the boys realized they were to be sent to
France. The news was received with great en-
thusiasm for all were anxious to get into action
and have their part in the struggle.
Passes home were issued only in extreme cases
and as soon as the news spread that the regi-
ment was to go to France the fair grounds was
the mecca for visitors from all parts of tlie state.
Huudi-eds of the home-folks witnessed the big
regimental parade staged during the fair.
On the evening of September 10, 1917, sev-
eral hundred lads in khaki might have been seen
lounging about Machinery Hall in full equip-
ment waiting for the order to entrain. Through-
out the long cold night they waited and then
early in the morning the trains arrived and the
Third Battalion piled aboard and were off on
the long journey to France. Waving cheery
farewells they bade good-bye to old Iowa and
confidently started out on the biggest adventure
of their lives.
Arriving at Camp Mills on the afternoon of
September 13 they marched two miles out to the
fields where their camp was to be pitched — the
field as yet uncleaned of brush and weeds. They
slept out in the open and the next morning set
about clearing their camp and setting it in or-
der. Then the steady grind of training began
and for the next month they had strenuous drill
day after day. During this time the remainder
of overseas equipment was issued after which
they were reviewed by Secretary of War Baker.
While at Camp Mills all of the boys were grant-
ed passes to New York City. Ray Phares was
the only Atlantic man, however, permitted a
pass to his home, being called there by the seri-
ous illness of his mother.
All the men were eager to get started to
France and at last the happy day came. On
October 18 the entire regiment went aboard the
U. S. S. President Grant at Hoboken and at
midnight slipped out of the harbor. But their
joj' was short lived for on the fourth day out
engine trouble developed and it was necessary
to turn back. They arrived back at Camp Mills
in a pouring rainstorm on the night of October
27. The camp was flooded but the boys made
CASS COUNTY
tlie most of it and began tlie old camp life
again.
After a eonple of weeks more drilling the
third battalion sailed again on the afternoon of
November 14 aboard the White Star liner Celtic.
A stop was made at Halifax and one day was
spent in the harbor at Dublin on account of
submarines operating in that vicinity. The bat-
talion landed at Liverpool on December 1 and
boarded trains immediately for Winchester
where thev spent a week in a rest camp. On
the afternoon of December 8 they went aboard
a channel steamer at Southampton, arriving in
Le Havre the following morning. A few days
were spent at the rest camp there and on De-
cember 11 the troops entrained for Kimaucourt
in the Lorraine sector, arriving there two days
later.
Here the company got their first touch of the
real hardships of war. Although the weather
was very cold the men were billeted in barns and
for several weeks thej' were unable to get sup-
plies of any kind. Despite insufficient clothing
and very meagre food supplies training contin-
ued through all kinds of weather. French of-
ficers were attached and during these long
dreary weeks the boys received their beginning
lessons in trench warfare. It was under these
conditions that the Cass County boys spent their
first Christmas in France and needless to say
there were many evidences of homesickness.
It was at Rimaucourt that the first death in
the company occurred. Norbert Wilson of El-
liott succumbed to an attack of scarlet fever on
January 5, 1918, after a short illness.
On January 31 the company marched to Voi-
sines, where they camped until February 12.
They proceeded to Rolanpont and then went by
train to near Baccarat where they were billeted
in a village until the evening of March 8. On
the evening of the eighth the company marched
up to a position just back of the front line and
early the following morning went into the
trenches. Company il along with Company F
went over the top at 5 p. in. after a four-hour
preparatory bombardment. It was during this
bombardment that Cecil Conley and Fred
Turner were killed. The raid, lasting an hour,
was successful and several prisoners were taken.
Tlie company retui'ned to the rear camps that
night.
Company ~Sl suffered several casualties dur-
ing this first raid and the loss of their comrades
while sobering the men made them more anxious
to get back into action and get another chance
at the Huns.
Three days later the company went back into
the lines for permanent duty, and during the
months that followed spent eight days at a time
in the trenches and were then relieved for eight
days. Lloyd ]\Iorrill was killed on March 18 and
Max Hubbell was killed instantly by our own
barrage on ^Ihv 15.
Till' regiment was relieved on June 20 after
spending three months in the front lines and
then proceeded to Thayon where they entrained
for the Champagne front, unloading near
Suippes on June 23. They started for the lines
on July 1 and went into the second line of
trenches on the evening of July 4. Here they
remained on the defensive without much excite-
ment until the night of July 14 when the Ger-
man offensive was launched along the entire
western front.
For four hours our boys witnessed what is re-
puted to have been the most terrific bombard-
ment put over by the Germans during the entire
war, but the German infantry pusli failed to
reach the second lines and their offensive in that
sector promptly failed. The 168th remained
here until Jul.y 20th when they were withdrawn
and hurried to the Chateau Thierry sector, go-
ing into the lines near Fere-en-Tardenois on
July 26. On July 28th they were engaged in
some of the fiercest fighting of the war which re-
sulted in the capture of Sergy and Hill 212.
None of the Cass County boys were killed in
this engagement but several were wounded,
among them Irmin Spence, Earl Kirk, Harold
Kjar, and Paul Kirk.
After continuous fighting for more than a
week the regiment was relieved on August 5 and
then camped for ten days in woods near Pere-
en-Tardenois. Here much sickness developed
-^ -.<- IN THE WOI^LD'wAR >
aiul many were sent bai'k to the hospitals. After
a long march the regiineut detrained at La Ferte
on August 20 for Chaumont-la-Ville where it
was expected they would rest for a niontii. But
after new equipment had been issued and re-
placements received they started on a ten-day
march to the St. Mihiel sector.
The regiment went into the lines again on the
evening of September 11 and over the top the
following morning. The 42nd Division was in
the eenti'al part of the advance with the third
battalion of the 168th, taking the brunt of tlie
tight, and there were many casualties dui'ing
the day. Phil Brooks of Atlantic fell in the
eai'ly morning conflict. The regiment reached
its objective ahead of time and dug in. Here
they remained on the defensive until September
27 when they were relieved and after resting a
few days started for the Argonne, going by
truck a part of the way and marching the re-
mainder.
October 12 found our boys again in the lines
participating in the offensive movement that
stopped only after the Germans had been driven
back to Sedan. The regiment was relieved on
November 10th and received the news of the
armistice while on the march to the rear.
Though worn out by weeks of continued fighting
the men were not too tired to celebrate the
victory.
The troops went into camp near Buzanc.y
where thej- remained until November 19 when
the start on the long hike to Germany was made.
The route of march led them into Belgium and
through Luxembourg. They rested over Thanks-
giving at Eischen, Luxembourg. Thanksgiving
was a big day for the men enjoyed the first real
feed in many months. This Thanksgiving din-
ner was a gift from the ladies at Atlantic and it
brought joy and happiness to the hearts of many
weary soldiers that day.
The march was resumed on December 1 and
after many long tiresome day.s of hiking they
arrived at Nieder Zissen, Germany, on Decem-
ber 16. Good billets were provided here and
the boys settled down to comfoi'table living once
again. In February the third battalion was
moved to Nieder Brcisig on the Rhine where it
remained until starting for home.
Though comfortably located in Germany it
was but a few weeks until a spirit of unrest ap-
peared and the boys began wondering when
they would start homeward. It was not until
April that the long-looked-for orders arrived
and on April 9 the regiment entrained for the
good (lid r. S. A., arriving in Brest on April 12.
Six days later they sailed for home on the Levi-
athan, ;irriving in Hoboken April 25. After a
frw days at Camp Merritt they started on the
last lap of the journey west, arriving in Des
;\Ioines on the evening of ]May 1-1. The follow-
ing afternoon thousands of the home-folks .
cheered the boys as they marched through Des
iloines in their last regimental parade, and dur-
ing the three days that followed our youthful
heroes were fused back into civilian life.
The nation will ever be grateful to the men
of the Forty-Second Division including our own
Company M boys for the magnificent manner in
which they upheld the fighting traditions of
their country on that far away battle line.
Their record will henceforth forever constitute
one of the most brilliant pages in the military
history of America. ^Modern warfare in its
tragic intensity has little of the glamour and
glory of battle in the days gone by; the stern
demands of the modern military machine re-
quire the full measure of physical endurance
and privation on the part of the individual and
few people except those who experienced it can
ever appreciate the sacrifices of that band of
fifty-one boys of Company il who went out of
Cass County in the early days of the war.
ilere boys, most of them, they shouldered
their guns and after a few brief weeks of train-
ing crossed three thousand miles of water to a
foreign land and took their place among the
first American troops to participate in that
tragic line where soldiers of many nations were
locked in a death struggle. Day after day of
heavy marching under the weight of a ponder-
ous equipment ; at times very scantily clothed
and fed ; night after night of wearisome waiting
and watching in wet and muddy trenches; the

exposure suffered during' weeks of inelement
weather all added to 1lie luirdsliips and terrors
of battle, with the uiuMTtainty of life itself pre-
dominant and the honicsirkucss incident to for-
eign conditions and surroundinjis made the ex-
istence of our boys anything but fascinating.
The people of Cass County owe a debt of grat-
itude to the boys of Coiiiiiauy :\1 wliich can only
be paid by the appn-ciation of the services tliey
performed for their eountiy. Some of them
gave their lives; othei-s will beai' iihvsiual im-
pediments throughout the years ; the.y all gave
two of the best years of their life to the cause
of human liberty everywhere. Financial remu-
neration cannot compensate for such service
even were it desired but they and their friends
can always have the satisfaction of knowing that
when their country's call came they answered
quickly and gave splendid, heroic service to the
end. The citizens of Cass County can well be
proud of the boys of Company ]\I.

r/ie Boys of '61- '68
Cass County was at its comparative infancy
in 1861 at the outbreak of the Civil War. But
its citizenship was intensely loyal to the Union
and the eall for troops received a hearty re-
sponse.
Compared with the upward of a thousand
men who entered the world war from this coun-
ty the record it made in the civil war was one in
which it may well feel proud. Cass County's
population in the period from '61 to '65 was
only a fraction of what it is at present. The
voting strength of the county was about 350.
Today it has about 4400. Yet Cass County sent
to the Union army approximately 160 men. Of
that number twenty-two gave their lives, five
falling on the field of battle. These five were
Captain J. C. Brown, George Rose, Patrick
Archer, :\I. L. Littlefield and William R. Terry.
Practically all of Cass County's soldiers in
the civil war served in the Fourth and Twenty-
third Regiments of Iowa infantry. Company I
of the Twenty-third Iowa Infantry was com-
posed entirely of Cass County men.
Just as the One Hundred and Sixty-eighth of
the Rainbow Division in the world war has
brought undying glory to Iowa, so did the
Fourth and Twenty-third Regiments bring fauu^
to the commonwealth in the sixties.
The Fourth Regiment was mustered in at
Council Bluffs in August, 1861, under the com-
mand of Grenville il. Dodge. It became at-
tached to the Army of the Southwest and took
part in some of the most bloody and momentous
battles of the Civil War. It was at Pea Ridge,
Chickasaw Bayou, Yicksburg, Lookout iloun-
tain, ^Missionary Ridge, Resaca, Kenesaw Moun-
tain and Atlanta. The part played by the
Fourth at all these points brought added luster
to their banner. No wonder the people of the
state were delirious with joy when the regiment
came home in February, 1864, for a short rest.
But it was a shattered remnant of the regiment
that reached Des ]\Ioines in that month. The
ravage of battle had thinned its ranks. .Many
of the men, including soine from Cass County,
were in their graves in the Southland. When
the regiment reached Des ?il()incs the Legislature
held a reception for the fightfi's and from all
parts of the state relatives and friends flocked
to Des IMoines to welcome tlie eon(|ueriug lieroes.
In April the regiment re.joined the Union forces
in the South and became a part of Sherman's
army, taking part in the famous "' march to the
sea". In ^lay, 1865, the regiment participated
in the grand review at Wasliington and was
mustered out at Dav<'nport ;i few days later.
It had marched 5000 miles and participated in
thirty-six engagements.
Adding to the glory of Cass County was the
work of the Twenty-third Regiment. Company
I of this regiment was made up exclusively of
Cass County men. The company left the county
in charge of Capt. James R. Coe. He later re-
signed because of ill health and was succeeded
by Second Lieutenant J. C. Brown. The latter
was killed in the fighting at Jlilliken's Bend on
June 7, 1863. He was in turn succeeded by
John J. Van Houten who had entered the com-
pany as first sergeant. The Twenty-third was
at Andei-son's Hill, Black Kiver Ridge and all
the prominent engagements which preceded the
fall of Vicksburg. After the capitulation of
Yicksburg the regiment participated in the en-
gagements at Jackson, Ft. Esperenza and Span-
ish Fort. It was mustered out of the service at
Harrisburg, Texas, July 26, 1865.
Cass County's honor roll in the civil war con-
tained the following names: Fred W. Huraer-
ick, David Watson, William R. Collette, Japheth
Ball, Capt. J. C. Brown, Lieut. G. B. Kilpat-
rick, Jasper Berry, George Rose, David Wilson,
Patrick Archer, Ebenezer Cummings, David

CASS COUNTY
The Fifty-First Iowa Infantry
The Fifty-first Iowa Volunteer Infantry in
whicli most of the Cass County men saw service
in the Spanisli-Amerieau War was largely made
up of the old Third Iowa National C4uard Regi-
ment. The regiment was mobilized at the State
Fair Grounds in Des Moines April 26. 1898 ; re-
organization was effected and the regiment mus-
tei-ed into the national service. The camp was
known as Camp .McKinley and here the com-
panies recruited to war .strength and drilled un-
til June 5th when they departed for San Fran-
cisco, arriving on the 10th.
Training continued here at Camp ^Merritt as a
part of the Third Brigade under General Harri-
son Gray Otis until July 18th when the regiment
was joined to the Second Brigade ami on July
29th transferred to the Presidio.
Although the peace protocol was signed in
August the regiment was retained in the service
and continued to drill until Xoveud)er when
they were ordered to the Philippines. On Xo-
vendier 3 they embarked on the Pennsylvania
for the long trip. After a short stop at Hono-
lulu the voyage was resumed and the regiment
arrived in ^Manila on the morning of December 7
after a trip of 6.990 miles.
The regiment remained aboard the Peun.syl-
vania in Manila harbor until Deeeml)er 26th
when they were ordered to proceed to lloilo,
capital of the island of Panay, which had been
occupied by the insurgents. Arriving there on
the 28th the men had hopes of an early landing
but were destined to disappointment for the at-
tack on the city was withheld. For another
month they remained on board in the harbor of
Iloilo and then on January 29th the Pennsyl-
vania proceeded northward, arriving back in
Manila bay on the morning of January 31st.
On February ."ith the last of the troops dis-
embarked.
It was a happy day for the boys M'hen they at
last set foot on land after spending more than
three months, ninety-three days in all. aboard
the Pennsylvania amid the discomforts and mo-
notonous inactivity of ship life. It was an
extraordinary fact that in all that time not a
death had occurred in the regiment.
The troops settled down again to camp life in
their barracks at Cavite, just across the bay from
^lanila. There were freriuent skirmishes with
the insurgents dui-ing the days that followed
until February 18 when the First Battalion was
ordered to [Manila to participate in the defense
of the city. Soon after the other battalions
were ordered into action and during the months
that followed the Fifty-first Iowa was in the
thick of the fighting.
The campaign against the insurgents was long
and beset M'ith many complications. The topog-
raphy of the country was favorable to the guer-
rilla warfare to which the Filipinos resorted and
although they were always unsuccessful against
the American forces our boys suffered frequent
casualties. Unused to the extreme climate of
the islands many succumbed to disease and the
ranks were considerably thinned when the regi-
ment returned to ilanila on September 6, 1899.
Preparations were immediately begun for the
homegoing voyage and on September 22 the reg-
iment sailed on the transport Senator, the last
of the U. S. volunteer forces to leave the islands.
Stops were made at Nagasaki, Japan, and at
Yokohama and shore leave was granted to the
men. The regiment reached San Francisco
October 22 and was mustered out a few days
later.
The Iowa boys of "98 upheld the fighting tra-
ditions of the state. No volunteer regiment saw
longer or more difficult service and Cass County
bovs had their full share in the work.

The Cass County Soldiers' Monument
The idea of Cass Coimty soldiers' momunent
originated witli Cyrus B. Osborne of Atlantic,
Civil War veteran and pioneer of the couut.y.
It was he who in the eai-ly part of 1915 suggest-
ed that steps be taken to secure the neeessarj'
funds for such a memorial.
During the summer the Board of Supervisors
took the necessary legal steps to appropriate the
unused and accumulating portion of the sol-
diers' relief tax to the cost of a monument.
This could be done under the provision made by
the Iowa general assembly. The necessary reso-
lution was adopted by tlie board on October 9,
1915.
Under the provisions of the resolution the
board was to name three of its members to act
with three members of the Soldiers' Relief Com-
mission. These six men were to constitute the
monument committee having in charge the selec-
tion of the site, the employment of an architect
and the supervision of the erection of the monu-
ment. This committee as originally constituted
was composed of A. Biggs, G. A. Goeken, and
A. C. Highley of the Board of Supervisors and
A. E. Proctor, F. H. Sears, and J. S. Pressnall
of the Soldiers' Relief Commission. County
Auditor C. E. Kringle was made secretary of
the Commission. On the retirement of ^lessrs.
Biggs and Goeken as members of the Board of
Supervisors their successors, W. D. Bell and D.
J. Bode, became members of the committee. J.
S. Pressnall resigned and was succeeded by P.
M. Nutter.
The foundation of the monument was laid in
the city park in September, 1916. It has been
determined that a sum not to exceed $25,000
should be expended for the monument. Edward
A. Pryor of Postville, Iowa, was selected as the
architect. He supervised the construction of
the monument from the laying of the first stone
to the placing of the figure on the apex thereof.
The contract for the erection of the memorial
was given to J. 0. AVilkcn of Atlantic. The
foundation was laid by the Kimbalton Construc-
tion Co. of Atlantic. The monument was com-
pleted in ilay, 1919, and dedicated July 10,
1919.
As it stands today it is the most beautiful and
elaborate county soldiers' monument between
the Mississippi River and the Rocky Mountains.
It is a memorial to the soldiers and sailors of all
wars preceding the world war. The list includes
all veterans who entered the service from Cass
County, those who are buried in the county, and
those living in the county at the time of the
erection of the monument. It is a monument
to the living as well as the dead. Having been
conceived prior to the entrance of America in
the world war it is not intended to be the coun-
ty's memorial to the men who served in the last
conflict.
From the speech of Hon. Robert G. Cousins
at the dedicatory exercises, July 10, 1919 :
"Wliat mind can compass and what lips can
utter the thrilling story so eloquently condensed
by this majestic column for the generations who
so happily behold it, and for all who will enjoy
the heritage provided and defended by the men
whose names it bears?
"Ah, men and women of this commercial and
indulgent age, in the midst of memories of our
might and immortal past, and in contemplation
of our unexplored but powerfully promising fu-
ture, how many realize their obligations to our
institutions for the sacrifices which they have
cost? The forefathers did not find them here,
like the air they breathed and the water they
drank. They were toiled for and defended,
blood bought and so far, thank God, 'untom by
usurpation'.
"A mighty mind once said, 'The centuries
look down upon us', but the presence of memo-
ries Avitnessed by this towering testimonial
mighty in its grace and beautiful exceedingly.

the most consrientious modesty and <iratitude
may well believe that the centuries lift up their
eyes to this crowning tigure of justice and trans-
cendant beauty bestowing wreaths upon the
heads and memorj^ of those who in the hour of
mortal need offered the supreme sacrifice for the
dearest hope of all ages — righteous, constitu-
tional, representative government — in which all
responsible enlightpncd citizens [larticipate
alike.
"This mighty, graceful monument taking its
place as the masterpiece from the Mississippi to
the Rockies has been dedicated in far greater
fashion than our words can do, and as for the
designer, it is well that genius can lift a name
so high and worthily Mobile yet he lives.
"The citizens of Cass County, doing a great,
deserved and noble honor have unselfishly done
nmch honor to themselves and to the nation."

HOME ACTIVITIES
It is the purpose in the following pages to present the story of the
efforts of the home-folks during the long wearisome months when
the energies of the nation were directed toward doing everything
possible to back up the millions of boys who had donned the khaki
and gone forth to war.
It is a splendid and significant fact that those who had to stay
behind responded magnificently to every call, and in the following
record an attempt has been made to set forth briefly the results of
their efforts and to give credit wherever it was conspicuously due.
It should be borne in mind, however, that this record has been com-
piled nearly a year after the conclusion of the war and in many
cases it has been impossible to get complete data regarding certain
activities or to secure complete lists of committees.
There have undoubtedly been omitted names of active workers
and important activities because of the fact that records have been
misplaced or destroyed and the complete story thus made unavail-
able for present purposes. The scope of home war work was so
wide and the responses from all sides so unanimous that it would
seem that the name of almost every citizen might appear on the
honor roll of some activity. But an earnest effort has been made
to compile from the present available data a concise record of the
citizen-soldier's activities through various organizations and this
section is presented in a spirit of appreciation of work well done.

The Red Cross
The a^>e(l goverudr of one of the battered
and stricken French provinces said that while
the efficient American army had brought to
the French a vision of America's greatness it
remained for the Red Cross to reveal Amer-
ica's heart.
Probabh' no bit of pleasantness concerning
his army experiences will remain in tlie heart
of the American soldier longer than the mem-
ory of the kindly interest displayed for his
welfare by the Red Cross wherever he went.
]\Iort particularly does he remember the cups
of coffee and sandwiches after he had ridden
interminable hours, cramped, cold and un-
comfortable aboard a Fi'cnch troop train ; and
the wounded and sick will never forget the
magnificent work of tlie Red Cross in the hos-
pitals, where representatives were always on
hand to comfort and minister to the suffering.
The scope of the Red Cross work was so
far-reaching that practically everyone in the
army was benefited in some way by its exist-
ence. In addition there was the tremendous
amount of relief and refugee work throughout
Europe, — a work which has won for the
American Red Cross the admiration and grat-
itiide of the world.
The Cass County Chapter of tlie American
Red Cross was organized at a public meeting
held in Atlantic ilay 2, 1917, at which Rev.
Elias Handy acted as temporary chairman
and ;\Irs. E. C. Crawford, temporary secre-
tary. This meeting resulted in securing a
charter for a county organization and soon

The people of the county responded mag-
nificently to the woi'k of the Red Cross.
County headquarters when work rooms were
opened in the Commercial Club at Atlantic
and the work of making bandages, surgical
dressings and garments began with unlimited
volunteers responding and continued un-
abated until the clo.se of the war.
In the membership drives and campaigns
for funds hundreds of workers volunteered
their services: the response to appeals for
money were met with success on every side
and never for a moment was the Avhole-heart-
ed loyalty of the people for the Red Cross in
doubt.
At the close of the Christmas, 1917, cam-
paign 8620 member.s had been enrolled in the
county and the following year approximately
the same nundier was enrolled. During the
HO.ME SERVICE SECTION
Eai'ly in lOlS the Home Service Section of
tiie Cass County Chapter, AmeiMcan Red
Cross, was organized. This department was
the last department authorized by the Na-
tional Red Cross, its object being the care of
the families of men in the service in order
that no family .should suffer or be obliged to
lower its standard of living because the man
or men of the family were serving their coun-
try. The services advised by the National
organization were friendly visits, advice, med-
ical and hospitiil cai'e wlieii necessary, and
mon(>y relief in the foriii of allowances, grants
or loans.
T. C. Whiteiuore. chairman; M. C. Cardio,
Dr. C. Y. Wilder, Mrs. A. A. Gillette and .Mrs.
John W. Blake constituted the Home Service
Committee.
The duties and efforts of this committee-
were important and far-reaching. Friendly
visits were made upon needy families of ser-
vice men and efforts made to add to their com-
fort. Cases of delayed allotments and allow-
ances were investigated; applications for al-
lotments and allowances were made and re-
instatement in eases of discontinued allow-
ance. In case of death of a soldier the family
was assisted in filling out forms for applica-
tion for War Risk Insurance, applications for
compensation for dependents of deceased
were made and for funeral expenses and for
return of soldier's effects.
In cases where family sought information
regarding their sons in the service this com-
mittee got in touch with Red Cross aitthori-
ties wherever the soldier was stationed and
r
~C ..5ASS county"""' ^^-
secured immediate reports. A multitude of
other matters were etifieieutly handled to the
satisfaction of all concerned by this com-
mittee.
Could the women of Cass County who
sewed and Icnitted during tlie war know of
the individual joy that their efforts brought
to the soldier boys they would feci abundant-
ly repaid for their time and effort. Picture
a wounded doughboy clad in a pair of new-
pajamas, resting peacefully between clean
sheets on a fresh, white bed for the first time
in many lono weary jnonths ; his wounds
swathed in sterile bandages made by tender
and loving hands back home; though his
wounds pain him his spirit is happy in the
sweet revelry of comfortable surroundings
and he drops asleep to dream of mother, sis-
ters, sweetheart and home.

The Cass County Committee of the Council of National Defense
The County Council of Defense was the hub
to the wheel of war activities in Cass County.
Being the only organization in the county cre-
ated officially for the sole purpose of carrying
on the several activities incident to the prosecu-
tion of the war it naturally became the center
about which all these many activities revolved.
The council officially came into existence
through the appointment of its members by
Governor William L. Harding on ilay 29, 1917.
The members were chosen from all i^arts of the
county and represented all political faiths and
religious beliefs.
Immediately after the creation of the council
by the Governor the members gathered at the
Commercial Club in Atlantic and organized. At
this meeting there was a general discussion of
the duties of the council and a tentative program
agreed upon. This program included among
other things the searching out and investigation
of instances of disloyalty or lukewarmness to-
ward the prosecution of the war.
As a result of the activities of the council
along these lines creditable results were ob-
tained. Especially was the council an instru-
ment of good and powerful leverage in the sev-
eral loan drives. Through its power many de-
linquent residents of the county were brought to
see the light and loosen their purse strings.
Never, however, did it seek to force the buying
of bonds on any person beyond that individual's
financial abilitj' to buy.
One of the big aids which the council proved
to be in the carrying on of the war activities
was the moral influence which it possessed and
the impetus which it gave to the spirit of patri-
otism in the county. This influence was marked.
Whenever the stamp of the council was placed
on any of the several activities that particular
activity immediately took on new life and be-
came a success. In the spreading of patriotic
sentiment throughout Cass County no other
agency did so much as the defense council. Ev-
ery member responded heartily to the calls
placed upon him.
In the work of investigating instances of pa-
triotic delinquency the council created later an-
other and distinct body known as the Committee
of ^Military Affairs. This committee held numer-
ous sessions and never was a summons from it
disregarded. Its work in the placing of feet of
disloyalists in the path of true Americanism was
performed in a firm yet reasonable manner and
a number of persons who had previously refused
to perform their part in the various war activi-
ties were made to see the error of their ways.
As an aid to the work of the County Council
of Defense there were organized in each of the
sixteen townships and in several of the towns of
tlie county, auxiliary councils. These affiliated
with the parent council and greatly enhanced
its power. The total membership in these asso-
ciated councils reached several hundred. To-
gether with the parent council these associated
councils made a tremendously powerful body of
earnest and patriotic citizenship. Its influence
was felt in a hundred ways and in every part of
the county.

Liberty Loans
^leu, material and nioiii-y are the three neces-
sary elements to the waging of successful war-
fare. During the summer of 1917 after the
selective draft had made provisions for unlim-
ited numbers of men and contracts for enormous
stores of supplies had been let, it became evident
that the narional treasury would have to be re-
plenished.
It was foreseen that even the increased reve-
nue derived from war taxes of all kinds would
not be adecjuate to take care of the ever-increas-
ing army expenditures and the treasury depart-
ment found it necessary to launch the first Lib-
erty Loan campaign.
The task of raising the first loan and also the
second which followed a few months later was
undertaken by the banks of the country. In
Cass County under the direction of Mr. T. H.
Whitney and Mr. P. P. Breheny the several
banks carried on publicity campaigns urging
the people to subscribe for bonds. The banks
themselves subscribed for a large share of the
quota.
But during the first two campaigns the peo-
ple of the county were not thoroughly aroused to
the need of buying bonds and as a consequence
the county's quota was not raised in either cam-
paign although ncai-]y a half million dollars
were subscribed e:icli time.
As the war progressed government expendi-
tures increased to a degree unheard of in the
history of our country and it became necessaiy
to float the Third Liberty Loan. The banks had
responded splendidly to the appeal for help dur-
ing the first two campaigns but in order to
broaden the scope of interest and increase the
number of individual bond-holders a new plan
was promulgated. State liberty loan chairmen
M^ere appointed who in turn appointed district
leaders. Robert Wallace of Council Bluffs, head
of the ninth district, appointed ]\I. P. Conway
of Atlantic to act as chairman of Cass County.
Then preparatory to the launching of the
third campaign Mr. Conway appointed ward
and township chairmen. Committees were se-
lected and held meetings at which plans for the
campaign were perfected. Each township and
city was assessed a certain portion of the quota
and in turn each individual's share was approx-
imated. The campaign was well advertised ;four
minute speakers were pressed into service and
after weeks of intensive preparation the Third
Loan campaign was opened with a rush.
The county quota was $497,.350 and it was
evident early in the campaign that the amount
would be easily raised. The patriotic impulses
of the people had been stimulated by the woi'k
of the American army in Prance and they re-
sponded liberally to the appeals of the workers.
The campaign progressed with increasing en-
thusiasm both on the part of the workers and the
subscribers and the final tally showed that more
tlKui double the (|U(ita had been raised; 263%
of tli(> amount askt'd liad been subscribed.
The result was gratifying to all patriotic citi-
zens of the county. In only a comparatively
few cases had it been necessary to use more than
the ordinary appeal to get subscriptions for the
amount expected. These cases were diplomat-
ically handled by the Committee on Military
Affairs of the Council of Defense with the result
that in each case the party in question was per-
suaded to purchase his quota of bonds.
The same committees made the canvass for
the Fourth Liberty Loan in October, 1918.
Despite the crop failure in the covinty and the
fact that the quota was more than double that
of the previous loan it was oversubscribed, the
total reaching 107 per cent of the quota.
With the war over the Treasury Department
found it necessary to float the fifth loan to take
care of army expenses until demobilization. It
was named the Victory Loan in honor of the
successful conclusion of the war. Again the
144
m THE WOPLD WAR
fonnty organization was called for work. The
lack of wartime enthusiasm to give the campaign
the necessary impetus was probably responsible
for the failure to raise the full quota althduuh
most of the committers did excellent work,
llowcvei', the sum total of the bonds sold during
the five campaigns exceeded the county's quota
for the five loans by many thousands of dollars.
Cass County's record in the Liberty Loan cam-
l)aigns was mon^ than one hundred per cent.
It rc(iuii('d a tremendous effort to sell nearly
live million dollars worth of bonds; it is a record
of which our citizens can be pioud. All who
l)artici23ated in any way can jxiint with jii'ide tn
their achievement. The men and women of the
various committees gave freely of their strength
and time without heed of recompense or glory
in the smallest way. The citizens purchased
liberally that the big job might be carried on to
a gldi'ious finish. While the l)()ys were over
thtTc doing their pai'ticular job tlie folks at
home wove iiusy raising the c:ish and they did
tlicii- l)it magniticently.

The Four Minute Men
The Pour IMiimte .Men was a branch of tlie
Committee on Public Information appointed
by the President, whose members were eom-
mi.ssioned as official speakers in behalf of the
government to impiti't oflii-ial infoi'ination and
facts to the people.
The speakei's appeared chiefly before mo-
tion picture theater audiences in every city
of the country and their talks were limited to
four minutes each. Later during the war the
seo2>e of the department was enlarged to in-'
elude ministers, who were commissioned to
speak before their congregations on official
sub.jei'ts. The c'liief servii-e, however, was ren-
dered in the motion picture theaters.
In Cass County the Four Minute Jlen or-
ganization was started in -May, litlT, and dur-
ing the war very effective work was performed
throughout the county in disseminating in-
formation during the various campaigns and
drives. The speakers appeared in the cam-
paigns for the various Liberty Loans, for the
Salvation Army drive, for the United War
AVork drive, Ked Cross campaigns, and in
addition tliereto assisted the government in
its campaign for food conservation.
T. C. Whitmore was chosen county chair-
man and gave much time and effort in perfect-
ing the county organization. Following is the
personnel of the Four IMinute ^len of Cass
County: Atlantic— C. B. Clovis, B. A. Good-
speed, John .1. Rapp, H. B. Swan, H. 0. Spel-
man, J. K. Driver and P. N. Bennett, city
chairman: Griswold — T. J. Bryant, chairman,
and R. H. Bell: Anita— E. S. Holton, chair-
man, Harold Ziegler and B. D. Forshay;
Jlassena — George Cruise, chairman, and
Wray Wilson; Marne — Ray Eusden.
When the organization was disbanded De-
cendier 24, 1918, and the chairmen honorabl.v
discharged, the President wrote a special let-
ter to the Four ]Minute Men thanking them
and expressing his personal and official grati-
tude for the service that had l)een rendered
bv them.

Woman 's Committee of the Council of National Defense
Early in 1918 the necessity of banding to-
gether the women of the country for war work
became apparent and the Woman's Committee
of the Council of National Defense was organ-
ized. Mrs. C. G. Walner was appointed chair-
man of Cass County and Mrs. B. D. Forshay of
Anita, Mrs. Hugh Reinig of Grisvvold, Mrs.
Wray Wilson of Massena, and Miss Llayme Fin-
ley of Atlantic were selected as vice-chairmen,
each having charge of the four townships in
their respective corners of the count.y. Mrs. A.
A. Emigh of Atlantic was named secretary. The
vice-chairmen appointed a chairman for each of
her four townships and they in turn chose a
chairman for each school district in tlie town-
ship.
Previous to the time the organization had been
effected, however, the women of this county had
done considerable pioneer work in carrying oiit
the suggestions of the National Food Adminis-
tration. Several hundred signatures to the
Hoover Food Pledge Cards had been secured.
This card was in effect an agreement by the
signer to abide by the rulings of the Food Ad-
ministration and aid in the carrying out of the
program for national conservation of food. The
woman's committee completed this work and a
total of 1500 signatures to the Hoover Pledge
cards were secured. Another important feature
of the ladies' food conservation work was the
food exhibit at the county fair of 1918.
In this connection the county chairman and
the four vice-chairmen were appointed assistant
county food administrators and did excellent

L. T. Spangler wlio acted as chairman of the
city of Athintic in the Pood Pledge Card cam-
paign was appointed reporter for the National
Food Administration and made weekly reports
on the prices of food commodities in the county.
Tlie Woman's Committee oifered its services
for the Third Liberty Loan Campaign and the
committees made an active canvass in conjunc-
tion with the committees of the Council of De-
fense. The towns of the county were organized
on the block sergeant system which centered the
responsibility of each committeeman to a cer-
tain area. Mrs. 0. 0. Conley was the county
chairman for the loan drive work, and Miss
Amanda Wissler, chairman for the city of At-
lantic. The ladies gave unsparingly of their
time and efforts and aided very mat(M-ially in
assuring the county's quota. Tlie committee ex-
tended its work to the Fourth Loan Drive and
to that of the Victoiy Loan.
<^n April 6, 1918, a National Weighing and
Pleasuring Babies Campaign was inaugurated
to continue for a year. This movement came as
a result of the discovery of a high rate of defec-
tives among the young men of draft age. ]\Iany
of these defects were of a remedial nature had
the}^ been treated in time and the movement
proposed a national examination of all children
under five yeare of age and treatment for those
found defective. Physicians in the county con-
ducted the examinations free of charge and com-
mittei's under the direction of ^Mrs. Willis I\Iiller
of Atlantic made a canvass and survey of the
county.
The work of the Home and Allied Relief Com-
mittee was carried on under the direction of
Jliss Amanda Wissler. This committee handled
all the relief work of the organization that was
correlated with that of the Red Cross and other
organizations engaged in relief work.
The AVoman's Committee coniluctiMl the coun-
ty drive for Red Cross nurses under the direc-
tion of ;\liss Alary Adams. The county's quota
was eh'ven nui'ses. Seven wei'e enrolled although
several of these were never called for active ser-
vice. Thirteen entered training during the year
in hospitals of the county.
An important feature of the AVoman's Com-
mittee's work was tlie Home Food Demonstra-
tion campaign in the interests of food conserva-
tion. Mi.ss Lucile McRoberts of Charles City
spent three months in the county in charge of
these demonstrations and during June, July and
August of 1918 forty-two demonstrations were
held in homes, schoolhouscs and pulilic meeting
l)hices. iliss Jennii' Ward had charge of the
work of arranging the demonstrations.
The educational campaign in connection with
the food conservation work was carried on very
largely through the excellent work of the four-
minute women. This committee was composed
of Aliss Anna Temple, chairman, and ]\Irs. Har-
old Schrauger, Aliss Gretchen Crawford, Ali.ss
Edith 0 'Council, Airs. L. C. Allender, Ali.ss Car-
I'ie Wilken and Airs. Dr. Thompson. These
ladies gave addresses in theaters, churches,
school houses and at many other gatherings and
performed valuable services for the cause.

The Local Board of Cass County
Soou after the passage of the Selective
Draft Law a draft board for each county in
the state was nominated by the governor and
appointed by the President of the United
States. After the -June, 1917, registration the
local members were instructed to organize
under the designation "The Local Board of
Cass County".
The organization was effected July 3, 1917.
W. A. McKee was chosen Chairman ; C. E.
Kringel, Secretary, and Dr. C. L. Campbell,
physician member.
This Local Board was assisted in its work
b.y the following :
Legal Advisory Board — Judge J. B. Rocka-
fellow, Atty. C. B. Clovis, and Atty. B. A.
Goodspeed.
Associate members Advisory Board — ■
Eighty-six men from all parts of the county.
Twenty registration boards of two men
each.
Additional Medical Examiners — Practically
all the physicians, surgeons and dentists of
the county.
District Advisory Board — Cass and Adair
Counties: Dr. C. E. Thompsen, Chairman;
Dr. W. S. Greenleaf, Secretary; Dr. U. S.
Mullins. Eye and Ear Specialist; L. C. Al-
lender, Dental Specialist.
Government' Appeal Agent — Atty. T. C.
Whitemore.
Corps of Clerks.
The Local Board had in charge the tremen-
dous task of registering the men of draft age
in the three different registrations. This was
only made possible through the magnificent
response and patriotic cooperation of officials
who served on the various registration boards
of the county.
But with the first registration over the
work of the Local Board was just beginning.
There remained the sending of calls, physical
examinations, the hearing of exemption
claims and then finally the selection of the
various quotas. It is to the credit of the Cass
County Local Board that its members worked
faithfully, persistently and fairly in the face
of all their difficulties and finished the job
with everyone satisfied.
The county's first draft quota was an-
nounced Jiily 20, 1917, and consisted of 140
men. A call was sent out for 280 men to
appear before the examining board during
the three-day period beginning August 2.

The Fuel Committee
With the advent of a fuel shortage in the
fall of 1917 it became necessary for the gov-
ernment to take drastic measures to guarantee
an equitable distribution of the supply. As a
result the fuel commission came into existence
with committees in practically every town and
city in the country.
In Cass County the following conuuittee
was appointed : David Hope, J. B. Jones and
J. D. Gotf of Atlantic, Charles Shaw, Anita ;
George Cruise, Massena, and H. K. Forsythe
of Griswold.
The dealers in fuel were patriotic and the
work of the committee was greatly facilitated
by the willingness of the dealers to comply
with all fuel regulations. At no time was
there any serious conflict between the com-
mittee and the fuel dealei'S. The committee
also found the consumers anxious and willing
to comply with any and all suggestions made.
This committee served throughout the war
and deserve much praise for tlieir faithful
and efficient work.

The Food Administration
The organization of a food administration
for Cass County was perfected sliortly after
our entrance into the war. State Food Ad-
ministrator J. A. Deems of Burlington ap-
pointed Sam Berry and Ross Lang adminis-
trators for Cass County.
The work consisted of local interpretation
and enforcement of the rulings of the Na-
tional Food Administration and required a
large amount of detail and personal investi-
gation. Many cases of violation of rules were
reported but very few actual violations were
discovered when an investigation was made.
Of far-reaching importance to the com-
munity was the work of the Price Interpret-
ing Committee, acting under the jurisdiction
of the Food Administration. This committee
was composed of representatives of the whole-
salers, retailers and consumers and met week-
ly to discuss local price conditions and fix the
minimum and maximum local prices on staple
food commodities.
The committee was furnished weekly re-
ports from Washington relating to general
price conditions and they then made the nec-
essary local adaptations, fixing reasonable
margins of profit, thus rendering impossible
any attempt at food protiteering.

Admini.strators.

CASS COUNTY
^
Ihe Y. M. C. A.
The first county drive for welfare work
funds in the World War was made bj' the
Y. M. C. A. in October of 1917 in which a
total of $17,067 was raised, several thousand
dollars more than the quota for this county.
il. B. Nelson was named county chairman
and Harry Cavenaugh was selected as treas-
urer. At a meeting of workers from various
parts of the county in Atlantic which was
called in August by the chairman plans were
laid for the campaign and a systematic can-
vass of the county was made by the commit-
tees appointed at this time.
Tills campaign was in connection with the
raising of a ten million dollar fund by the
Y. ^1. r. A. for its war work. Beginning with
a few huts in army camps this work grew until
there were hundreds of Red Triangle huts in
the camps and cantonments in the United
States and likewise scattered over France
wheri'vei- American troops were quartered.
Tlie Amei'iean soldier boy was practically
never without the Y. ]\I. C. A. and a splendid
service was performed by it.
The Y. W. C. A.
A very important work was carried on by
the Young Women's Christian Association
during the war in providing hostess houses
with canteens at army camps and looking
after the interests of the women war workers.
When the soldier's mother, sister or sweet-
heart came to camp to visit him the Y. W.
C. A. provided a comfortable place near camp
where he could entertain them and the hostess
houses provided for a need that no other or-
ganization attempted to meet.
At home and abroad the Y. W. C. A. did
much good work in providing rest rooms for
women welfare workers and nurses and in
many ways contributed to their comfort and
happiness.
While there was no Y. W. C. A. organiza-
tion in this community the ladies of the coun-
ty felt the need of assisting in carrying on
tlie important war work and they perfected
an organization to assist in raising funds for
tlie Association war work.
Mrs. W. F. Graham was made county chair-
man; Mrs. P. I. Appleman, secretary, and
]\riss ]\Iary Adams, treasurer. City and town-
ship chairmen were appointed and they in
turn selected school district workers. Par-
ticipating in the national drive for funds in
December, 1917, this organization raised
.$1709, exceeding the quota by $559. It was a
distinctive effort deserving the commendation
of all who participated.
No other drive was made until the United
War Work drive of 1918 in which the Y. W.
C. A. quota was included with the others and
here again the women of the county did splen-
did work in helping raise the quota.

The Knights of Columbus
The initial effort of the Knights of Cohim-
bus of Cass County in Avar welfare work was
made in July, 1917, when Atlantic Council
1164 with 281 members raised $432 in the
national campaign among Knights of Colum-
bus members for a million dollars to be ex-
pended for war work.
This national effort resulted in the building
of welfare houses in the army camps and can-
tonments and the employment of a large
force of secretaries to look after the work.
Later the activities were extended to aid in
looking after our army in France and pro-
viding comforts and welfare homes for the
bovs over there.
This widening in the scope of the work
made necessary another campaign for funds
and in October and November of 1917 another
campaign among Catholic people generally
was directed under the auspices of the Knights
of Columbus. Committees under the direc-
tion of T. P. Breheny, chairman, from the
local council, made a concerted canvass of the
county, raising $2182.
Later the organization of the National
Catholic War Work Council was perfected,
taking charge of all welfare work and the
Knights of Columbus cooperated under its
direction in the United War Work campaign
and other war activities.
The Public Library
During the time the United States Avas en-
gaged in war the government used the Public
Libraries as important agents for general pub-
licity. The pamphlets on food conservation
sent from Washington and Ames were care-
fully put into the hands of leaders and direc-
tors of the conservation work. Recipes for
war cooking were constantly being distributed
through the library and posters urging the
people to conserve were prominently dis-
played.
Special emphasis was placed on children's
work during the Avar. One of the earliest ef-
forts Avas the display of a beautiful picture of
Joan of Arc which led to many repetitions of
the story of her life to the children. Special
efforts were made to keep them interested and
instructed through the display of bright bul-
letins and posters. Instruction was given in
knitting for the children and they Avere then
taken to the Red Cross rooms for encourage-
ment and furtlier Avork.
Throughout the war the library Avas made a
place of meeting for committees and an effort
put forth to furnish them with desired data.
At all times the best and most reliable books
and information on the war Avas made easily
accessible to the reader and articles of timely
interest in the newspapers and magazines
made available.
The call for books by the American Library
Association Avas answered by the library. At
one drive 2500 vohimes Avere collected from
over the county and sent to France. In addi-
tion hundreds of magazines were shipped to
Ft. Des Moines and other camps, and maga-
zines were given to soldiers leaving and pass-
ing through on trains. Throughout the war
j\Iiss Mary Adams, the librarian, did splendid
work in directing the efforts of the library
along the line of war activities.

The American Legion
Nearly a thousand delegates of all ranks
from private to brigadier general met in
Paris. France, on IMareh 15, 1919, for the
purpose of obtaining the views of the service
men abroad on the general proposition of or-
ganizing the patriotism of the men of the
service so that it might not be lost to America
after the war.
There attended the meeting representatives
of all combat divisions and every S. 0. S.
branch of the American Expeditionary
Forces. A tentative constitution was out-
lined and it Avas suggested that the new or-
ganization be known as the American Legion
although no permanent action was taken in
the matter. An executive committee of one
hundred members was appointed to take steps
to call another meeting in St. Louis in ]\Iay.
At the St. Louis meeting ]\Iay 8, 1919,
Henry D. Lindsay of Texas was chosen per-
manent chairman and the convention ratified
the tentative constitution drawn up in Paris.
An executive committee of one hundred was
appointed to act in conjunction with the
Paris committee in proceeding with the
further national organization of the Amer-
ican Legion through state branches and local
posts. The delegates voted to hold the First
Annual Convention in I\Iinneapolis, ;\Iinn.,
November 10, 11, 12.
The following preamble to the Constitution
of the American Legion states clearly the
purposes for which it was organized :
and nation; to comliat tlie autocracy of lioth the
classes and tlie masses; to make right the master of
might; to promote peace aud good will on earth; to
safeguard and transmit to posterity the principles of
instiee, freedom and democracy; to consecrate and
sanctify our comradeship by our devotion to mutual
helpfulness.
