U. s. TROOPS ON PARADE
IN STREETS OF LONDON

American troops marched through
London Wednesday. They were re-
viewed by Ambassador Page and
later by King George at Buckingham
palace.
Great crowds lined the streets,
which were decorated profusely with
American and British flags. Enthus-
iasm was shown everywhere. The
Americans were cheered by civilians,
by soldiers on their way to the front
and by wounded men.
A cabinet meeting in progress
when the Americans approached
Whitehall, was adjourned to permit
the premier and his colleagues to pay
their compliments to the Americans
The cabinet went in a body to the
war Office.
AS the Americans passed the
Horse Guards parade to Whitehall
they were greeted from the windows
of the war Office by Premier Lloyd
George, Foreign Secretary Balfour
Chancellor Bonar Law, War Secretary
Derby, Winston Spencer Churchill
minister of munitions; George N
Barnes, member of the war council
Admiral Jellicoe and other high offii
Gals as we'll as by French and Bel
gian officials.

for a parallel to the scenes witnessed
yesterday in the neighborhood of Ira
falgar square it probably would bt
necessary to recall the time of the
South African war and the return
home of the troops.

WAR MAKES CHANGES IN
THE TELEPHONE SERVICE

For the information of those who
may desire to know of the conditions
facing the telephone industry at this
time the following statement is issued
by the Iowa Telephone Company.
Since the very, beginning of the
war, the governments requests for
| telephone equipment have had pre-
cedence over private requirements
and government telephone calls have
had the right-of-way over all private
messages.
At an expense-in the aggregate
hundreds of thousands of dollars
comprehensive telephone systems
have been provided for training
camps, and lines of communication
have been installed between military
headquarters, mobilization posts and
C0mmissary depotr. Telephones and
special lines have also been supplied
for the troops at bridges, grain de-
pets ana other places being guarded.
In addition to the governments
use of our service, increased business
activity incident to the war has
placed further demands upon our
telephone facilities We are handling
over 80 per cent more long distance
calls than we did before the war and
the number of local calls, particularly
in the larger cities, has greatly in
| creased.
The long distance telephone facil-
! tiles out of the city of Washington
| have been moro than doubled since
| the war began and in all the principal
! centers both the local and long dis
| lance equipment has been greatly in
/ creased in an endeavor to handle the
| heavy telephone burden caused by
war activities.
Nearly 5000 skilled telephone en-
gineers and maintenance men from
the Bell system have been organized
into signal corps battalions for serv-
ice with the armies in the field. Many
more of our men are with the ma
tional guard and in other branches of
the country's military service.
The situation confronting us has
caused great difficulty in getting and
installing equipment for the most
urgent private needs. Our long dis
lance facilities are loaded to their Ut
most capacity and our local service in
some localities is suffering on account
of the conditions over which we have
no control.
AS the war continues the govern
ment's requirements for trained
telephone men and for service and
equipment are increasing. The pres
ent business activity is also likely to
be extended as the war goes on. In
the Interests of all, we hope that our
patrons will ask for no additional
equipment unless absolutely essential
to the conduct of their business and
that they viii put every possible re-
straint on the unnecessary and eX
distance service.

PROMINENT MINISTER
PREACHED AT BETHANIA

The Danish Lutheran people of
this section of the country have been
enjoying some splendid sermons dur
ing the past week. On last Sunday
services were held at Bethania church
near Kimballton. The heavy rain on
Saturday night made the roads heavy
Sunday morning which accounted for
lack of attendance at the morning
service, but in the afternoon the
roads were splendid and many from
all parts of the county were out to
hear Rev. S. p. Long. On Monday
services were held in Harlan and
Tuesday they were held in Atlantic.
The Harlan Tribune of yesterday
makes the following reference to the
Monday service:
REV. S. P. Long, d. D., pastor of
the Lutheran church, Mansfield, Ohio,
and delegate to the Lutheran con-
ference held here on the first three
days of the week, addressed an adui-
ence which nearly filled the High
school auditorium Monday night. Dur
| ing the service Rev. James G. Peter
son, pastor of the local church, pre-
sided. Several hymns from the
pamphlet provided for the occasion,
| were sung.
DR.. Long took his text from the
words, "Tarry We at Jerusalem until
We are imbued with the Holy Spirit
and Power" He began his sermon
by complimenting the district upon
the fine High school building and
congratulated himself on the privi-
lege of speaking in it. He divided
his text into three heads: the church
that was wanting; the Goddess
church; and the praying church, the
church that was helpful under the
power of prayer.
"The Goddess church he defined as
one in which Jesus Christ was rarely
mentioned and never present. The
church that was wanting, was the ra-
tionalistic church, in which only that
which was understandable by the
human mind was really Christian. The
speaker said a God whose every act
was fully measured by adherents
would be a very small God. The
serviceable church in his opinion, was
not the one whose motto was, Let
George do it," but one in which every
member felt their responsibility and
took pleasure in doing it by the aid
of the mighty influence of sincere
prayer.
He had much to say about the
power which was bestowed from
above upon the church that deserved
it. His illustration in support of this
assertion was very apt. He said the
power of electricity had been present
from the beginning; only waiting for
man to discover and apply it. In the
same way the power of the Holy
Ghost was ready at hand for the use
of any church that would deserve it.
He asked his audience to remember
| his message as though it was a heart
| to heart talk with each one in private
and not a general address which every
| listener assumed was meant for ev-
eryone but himself. Some of DR..
Longs daring statements brought a
smile and every sentence left an i'm
preston"

AUDUBON ASKED TO
FURNISH HER SHARE

H. j. Hantz has received a tele-
gram from Chicago urging the Red
Cross society of the county to do
what they possibly can to fill the ur-
gent demands to equip the soldier
boys that are so soon to go to France.
We are informed that the Military
Relief Department of the Red Cross
hope to be able to fill the allotment
by September 1st. The telegram to
Mr.. Mantz, as chairman of the county
organization, is as follows:
RED Cross has urgent call from
Major Gray Murphy for enormous
quantity of knit wool articles. Here
is cablegram from Major Murphy:
Last winter broke records for cold
and misery among people here. In
expressibly dread coming winter find
ing us without supplies to meet situa-
ton. Urge you on behalf Of our SOL
diers and those of our allies who will
suffer In their frozen trenches and
also thousands of French and Belgian
refugees and repatriates being re-
turned through Switzerland to
France. Everything here looks to
America. Begin shipping at once
100000 yarn knitted wool articles
Already requests that they must come
before cold weather. In view of the
shortage of fuel and other discom-
forts they will be of incredible value
in both military and civilian work
We ask your chapter to furnish ar
equitable number of this requirement
Your allotment is rs sweaters, rs
mufflers, rs pairs wristlets, rs pairs
socks. Full instructions will follow
in two days. Ask your members tc

WERE ROBBED IN CARROLL

l. M. Darland and George Northup
were robbed of their money at Carroll
Monday night. They were enroute
home from their trip to Yellowstone
park and were compelled to go to a
hotel in Carroll for the night. When
they woke up the next morning Mr..
Northup started to dress and found
that he had been robbed of SIG. He
mentioned the fact to Mr.. Darland,
who said he guessed h. would see if
his nancy was gone too. Sure enough
h. found tLat he had been relieved
of $3.50 in cash and two $40 cash
certificates. AS soon as he reached
Audubon he informed the bank here
and they sent out word to stop pay
ment on them.

HOLLAND MUST HAVE
GRAIN FROM THE U. s.

'If we fail to persuade the Amer
lean government to permit a contin-
uous supply of grain. it will mean
misery and economic ruin for Hol-
land" unanimously declared the
members of the official Dutch mission
who are expected to sail for the
United States this week and who were
interviewed Wednesday in body by
the Associated Press.
Whether such an eventuality would
ultimately force Holland into the war.
the members of the mission did not
care to prophesy. This, they contend
ed, would manifestly make Hollands
position most serious and would make
her more than ever dependent on the
central powers, to whom she presum-
ably would be obliged to turn to try
to get grain. as well as the present
essential, coal, necessarily expressing
equivalent concessions, and in which
case the American aim of stopping
Dutch food exports toward Germany
would still be defeated.
