LET THEM GO AWHILE.

The soldier. more than the civilian should be heard relative to the war situation, and when it will termt- nate. The man who has shed his own blood on the hattie field, the man who has seen his comrades shot down about him, the man who has known his own wounded to be fired on, when he was fighting fairly ant honorably, is the man who should nave the most iuflpential say as to what terms will be acceptable in the endine of all this conflict
 For long period the forces Of the allies have fought against great odds; against generations of prepared : ness; against lines that were quickly drawn and defenSes well made while he was just getting ready.

Hundreds of men fell asphyxiated,
writhing in terrible pain. Others, stu
pefied and staggering. coughing
streams of blood, fell back in all haste
out of the zone of the gas. The hor-

Pcrsiyal Landon. writing in the
London Times, said:
F"A breath of the gas was like a wolf
at the throat, like hot ashes in the
windpipe. Dazed and maddened with
pain, the coughing and gasping men
crushed their life preserving pads over
mouth and nose. But the first gulp
had penetrated their unprotected
lungs"
1t is estimated that almost 20 per
cent of the men in gassed trench
die of the effects and 80 per cent OF
the men who live through the attack
will be permanently disabled by it
Their lungs and bronchial passages
have been cut to pieces. More horri

the horrible suffering inflicted. Men
gassed often die after days of cough

is impossible--in which they cough

that they drown slowly,

THE BEST ARE LAST.
Scott Township Contributes $4,000
To Reeds Chain.

Again Col. i. M. Reed has sold the
Red Cross watch chain, donated to
him by Daniel Mattix, and for which
he has collected over $500 dollars and
says he will get one thousand before
he is through. This time it was at the
A, B. and G. A. Henry sale near Eos
terdale. Those present wanted to beat
all previous records and they sure did
it. First they decide to make it fifty
dollars, then seventy-five and finally a
hundred. The people of this neighbor-
mood have the distinction of doing
what they set out to do and when Mr..
Reed counted the money he had two
dollars over the one hundred mark.
Now we are wondering who will beat
this record or whether the mark set
by the people of Scott township will
stand.

THE TOWN WELL.

Our sympathies go out to the town
of Pleasantville in Marion county, in
the gathering shadows of realization
that will keep it paying taxes for
years to come. And we feel that it
is no weakness of heart to express
sympathy because Oskaloosa once up,
on time also dug town well. 1t
and although that was years and
years ago, so far as we know the
bonds issued at the time are still a
part of the debt of the city. And the
younger citizens who have come after
and are sure Oskaloosa could get finer
water, ought to go back and take a
look at the expense account of that
hole under the band stand and its
sad ending. But to get Z back TO
Pleasantville, the News says: -
'In view of the fact that Pleasant
vile has had considerable hard luck
in securing good and sufficient sup
ply of water, much satisfaction is felt
here over recent developments.
Ht well 10 HOW uO"u W al ueplH vi
almost 2000 feet and thus far three
sources of water supply have been
struck at 625 feet, the second at
1900 feet and the third at 1900 feet
Although the water has not been
chemically tested, it is fine tasting.
The base of the well is now in lime
stone.
Work on the well started almost
two years ago but has been impeded
many times ON account of numerous
occurrences. Just recent
ly while testing the flow of water the
could not withstand the
strain and a cylinder was lost in the
well, which win have to be removed
before further operations can be con-
tinued;"
Pleasantyille may well hope for the
best while preparing for the worst.
The Oskaloosa herald. (Oskaloosa, Mahaska County, Iowa) 1885-1919, 1918-03-07

must bring the war home. They must
visualize the fact that they must fight
just as much and as effectively as
their boys who go to France. They
must realize that they are fighting
for their national existence daily just
as much as the men in the trenches;
that the two and half million Ger
mans facing the allies are facing the
United States of America-HERE.
Every time there is meatless day,
just imagine there is an American
soldier at your door waiting for his
daily ration of meat. Every time
there is wheatless day get your i'm
agination busy-picture French Poi
lu with hand outstretched waiting for
the loaf of bread you are to give him.
Don't, wait until your boy is manned
or your neighbours boy is reported
among the missing in France. Fight
now fight daily; fight as if you could
see the enemy. This isn't a war of
armies; it is war Of resources; a
war of food. You are on the firing
line. SHOOT.
This is your own national, state,
local war. Bring the war HOME.

FEAR OF PoLYGAMY.

A resolution urging the passage oil
a constitutional amendment prohibit
ing polygamy was adopted by the Ma
tional Congress of Mothers and Par
ent- Teachers Association at the final
session of its convention it Atlantic
City last week. The resolution reads
as follows:
Whereas, The military authorities
of Germany have urged the necessity
of encouraging illegitimate children to
be brought up by the state, and have
requested the clergy to remove the
moral scruples of the women in order
that war losses may be offset; and
Whereas, Such propaganda is a
degradation of womanhood, manhood
and childhood and an insult to ciyiliz
alton; therefore be it
Resolved, That the National Con
eress of Mothers and ParentTeachers
Association urges the President and
Congress to pass a federal amendment
prohibiting polygamy in the United
States"
