IOWA SOLDIER BOY
DIED AT CAMP PIKE

Another soldier has been called to
pay the supreme sacrifice of his life,
for his country Mr.. Fiscus, son of
Emmett Fiscus, who lives just across
the line in Shelby county. died at
Camp Pike, Arkansas. We were un-
able to get any of the particulars
other than that he had died in camp
and the body was brought to Irwin
and the funeral was held in that city
yesterday Mr.. Fiscus is quite well
known here as the family always
came to Audubon to do their trad
ing.
1t is with much sadness that we
hear of these deaths and we realize
that they have gone to battle for US.
When one out of so many is called,
it seems hard to the parents and other
relatives that the one must be their
loved one. Let us remember that one
who dies for his country and for lib
erty is dying, the noblest death that
one can die. - ~
We sympathizes with the q parents
and aother reaatixeslain this hour Of
aAliction.

All the boys of the Eighth are we'll.
We had turkey for Thanksgiving and

We have quite a time here when
we buy anything and get back English
money, but we are learning it. The
trains here are lighter and smaller
than ours, and the coaches are little
pens and doors on the sides.
Eight of us rode in one place COM

like to write and tell you all but cant.

IMPRESSIVE FLAG SER
VICE CONGO CHURCH

An Extra church has fallen into line
to honor it's members and near rela-,
tlVeS, who are serving at home or.
abroad. A large crowd was present
at the Congregat ationaf church last
Sunday evening to witness the un-
yelling of the honor roll which already
bears seven names. The placing of
the stars upon the Service Flag
was done by the mothers and sisters
of our boys. The Rev. Cox. of the
Methodist church, took part in the
program. Two rousing battle songs
We're rendered by our young peoples
choir. Our pastor, the Rev. W. E.
Baldwin, delivered short address, en-
titled Making the World Safe for
Democracy" 1t was splendidly given
and will long be remembered by all
who We're present. 1t was well
thought out discussion, which gave
much seed for meditation, and re-
moved all doubt as to whether we are
right in taking part in this most fiery
and desperate struggle.
The singing of America. with an
extra verse, seemingly dedicated to
our boys. brought the impressive SER
vice to a close.
God, save our noble men,
Send them home safe again,
God. save our men.
Keep them victorious, potent and
chivolrous,
They are SO dear to us,
God, save our men.
