Lee County Colder Captures a Bride
In the OFFICES Of the Air Serv-
Ice In la Belle
France.
WAS A MAIL CLERK HERE
Taught School In Northern Part of
County and Was Reared and
Graduated In Fort
Madison.

The first Lee county soldier to mar
ry French girl is Private Charles
Starburg, Of Fort Madison.
He was welded last Tuesday to a
girl who was doing war work IN the
clerical part of the aviation, as was
Private Starburg, and they met in that
office originally. After that they met
more and more often outside of bust
ness hours. Her name is not yet
known here, as the cablegram Of the
groom neglected that detail, and let
terrs from him containing references
to her have been lost.
The groom was mail clerk on the
Santa Fe between Kansas City and
Chicago, when he entered the army,
back in 1916. He was clerk in the war
department at Washington for a year,
and then was sent to Europe as field
clerk In the air service, where he met
his fate.
He taught country schools in the
northern part of Lee county for cou-
pie OF years after graduating in 1913
from the high school at Fort Madison,
where his parents, Mr.. and Mrs. J. A.
Starburg, live.

LEST WE FORGET.


Give us good memories, oh, my God
I knowour hearts are staneh;
I know we shall not blanch;
And yet
Oh, God, we may forget.
We have that easy-soing mind.
We are so apt to think it,great
And noble to be blind.
Blind to mems follies and mis-
takes? All, yesl -
But blindness to base .crimes?
How will the after-tipes
Spit on us if we fail to snite>
For torture done in our own sight
For citiesful of homes flaming upon
the night
For little hands cut of and torn-out
tongues,
And fumes that set slow FIRE in the
lungs
For pure. wombs forced to bear
The load of lust
To turn. the sacred breast
Into a devils nest ..
Or else to thrust
The holy mother love down dead
into the dust?
We mean to do our duty in the hour
Of victory and power;
And yet
Oh, God, we may forget.
And so for every day
This is the prayer l pray:
Lord, let our face be set
Like flint, unto the end.
Let us not bend!
God let us not forget.
