Fosdick commission.
A letter was read from Mrs Wat

urges all club women to maintain
their study clubs, saying it would be
bad policy to give up all study and

Sommend Some Grocery Stores.
There was an informal discussion
of present food laws and some of the
grocery stores were especially COM
mended for their observance of the
pure food laws.
One grocer on upper Main street

There.
WHOLE FAMILY IN WAR
The lnvalided Soldier Appreciates His
Medal Presented by keokuk
and Calls it Beauty
to His Mother.

Speaking of service flags, nearly
everyone who goes along South
| Ninth street stops to look at a serv-
| ice flag which Mr.. and Mrs. Henry
| Breitenstein have on the front porch
of their home, 429 South Ninth
street Especial attention has been
directed to this banner since the
visit of their son, Harvey A. Breiten-
stein, who left today for Chicago.
Harvey Breitenstein is the first Keo-
| kuk soldier to be returned home
from France because of injuries. He
addressed the Liberty loan meeting
Friday night in the interest of the
government.
Mrs. Breitenstein made the flag
with its five stars, three blue, one
! silver, and the third star red. The
service flag is fashioned of ribbon
and is six to sixteen inches in di-
! ameter. She sewed the silver star
on for Harvey Breitenstein, the first
son in the family to leave for France.
That was when she heard he had re-
turned to America. Mr.. Breiten-
! stein thought so much OF the flag
| that he enclosed it in a tiny wooden
! frame and placed it on the front
porch, where all who pass may see it
The Whole Family in War.
! The three blue stars are for Mrs.
Breitensteins two sons, Ernest and
Carl Miller, and Roy Breitenstein,
her husbands boy. Ernest Miller is
i battling the Hun in France at the
present time with Company f, 307th
engineers His brother, Carl, is sta
toned with Company S, 124th infan-
! try, at Camp Wheeler. Ga. Roy
Breitenstein has gone to France to
fight it drought together with Com
pany M, seth infantry.
Margaret Breitenstein, the daugh-
ter of the house. has a red star on
the service flag. She is honored in
this way because of the work she is
now doing as a Red Cross nurse at
Camp Custer. Battle Creek, Mich.
She received her training in Peoria
and graduated from a Methodist hos
pital there. The first of November
Miss Breitenstein will follow her
brother Roy to France, still as a Red
! Cross nurse.
| Last Friday night, at the Liberty
loan meeting, the mayor pinned a
badge of honor on Harvey A. Brett
| enstein's breast as token OF the
appreciation of the townspeople for
| his gallant service in France.
He Appreciates keokuk Medal.
/ Harvey thinks a lot of that medal
About the first thing he did Satur-
day morning was to come out in the
| kitchen to Mrs. Breitenstein, hold
! up the medal, and say, Don't you
think that is a beauty" Il surely
do" was her answer.
/ Private Breitenstein spent nine
months at the Lorraine front. In
| one engagement his right hand was
severely injured by a hand grenade,
| two Of the fingers being shot Off
Because. too, of bodily injuries, he
was sent home to America.

ROME, Aug. 12.-(By Mail)-The
American Red Cross in Italy is using

to construct a badly needed DAY
nursery at the latter place.

building which will care for 400 pa

earthquake practically wiped out
Avezzano and Sora. The for

did not get much assistance. Nothing
