The Initial Conference of the Organi-
cation Heads Held in Fort

Afternoon.

Receive First Description Of
Methods and Meet
Again Soon.

The first meeting OF the Lee coun-
ty organization for the sale Of the
third Liberty loan bonds was held at
Fort Madison yesterday afternoon,
and much interest was shown by ali
the township chairmen.
Plans for the campaign for the Lib
erty bonds were explained by Chair
man John A. Dunlap, the plans having
originated in the national commission
and Secretary McAdoo at Washing
ton. They were transmitted to re.
serve bank chairmen, including Chair
man McNider. of Mason City, who is in
charge OF the state OF Iowa and the
only state chairman in the country

The keynote is, that everybody in
Lee county is to be given an oppor-
tunity to buy bonds-and if he does
not buy in ratio to his financial abil
ity he will have an opportunity to ex-
plain why to government agent
who will quiz him. This applies to
the bond buying class of citizens, and
those not able to buy one bond are
taken care Of in the thrift stamp
methods.
The Township chairmen.
The conference was held in the
rooms of the Fort Madison chamber OF
commerce, and it will meet there
again on the evening of Monday,
March Is, with all the Lee county
township chairmen present. Those
participating in the meeting yester-
day were:
John A. Dunlap, chairman Of Lee
county.

RECRUITING VS.. DRAFT

The Government has closed tho re-
cruiting stations.
Opinions differ az to whether the
Government should close the saloons.
But there will hardly be any diver
seHce OF opinion about the recruiting.

ocratic philosophy. Don't penalize
the loyal cnthusIasms of section OF
Us tor the benefit OF those vino are
.ess patriotic. Don't appeal TO our
emotions, or stimulate them into sac
ririces for the advantage OF those
whose emotions are less volatile. "
But there are other considerations
than these. Abolition OF the recruit
Ing system is not merely an exped-
lent for protecting the enthusiast,
the alturlst, the devotee Under the
old system many man felt strong
Impulse to enlist but controlled It. He
felt no fear OF Ludendorff, but he
was little afraid OF the man next
door.
Jones wanted to enlist. He did
not feel that his wife was entirely
dependent upon him. She had some
money, and her folks were willing to
look after her SO were his for that
matter He had Just enough OF the
ingredients Of an exemption claim to
put it over but he didn't think he
ought to.
Smith worked with Jones on the
same job. He had as good claim
to exemption as Jones, and no better
but he was less Qulxotlc. lie meant
to use it.
II Jones went to the front for three
years Smith would stay on the job,
and through the scarcity OF hired
help would get many promotions.

the young men of this nation as a

And what of US who stay ut home?
There ia discipline for us also. The
government requests that we should
follow certain regulations and make
certain sacrifices for the sake of the
army In the field. In some cases
these actions and sacrifices are en-
forced upon us and in some cases
only requested OF us. The discipline
of the soldier comes from without.
Ours must in great part come from
within. Let us school ourselves then
to follow willingly and cheerfully ev-
ernment. so that when our boys come

home and we take our rightful pride
and Joy In their return. we can feel
that we too are made stronger by our
discipline OF obedience and self sac.

MALHEUR CAVE WORTH SEEING

party consisting of j, S. Cook
aud wife with 10 and Jeane, Mr.. and
Mrs. w. NJ. Sutton, Mrs. |. Schwartz
and daughter. Gene. Albert Swain
and family. The Times Herald man
and his flock accompanied by Alton
I Byrd. with 4. $. Swain as guide made
up a party to visit the Malheur cave
last Sunday, going out by way OF
Crane and down Crane Creek over
| by c. Il. Peterson's ranch. The roads
were found better than was expected
and the cave reached on scheduled
tim.
II was worth the trip to the en-
tire party as none OF them with the
exception of Mr.. Swain had ever Wis
tied the cave. The party at once en-
tered the big cave and begun eXplor-
Ing with torches and flashlights. It
wa, the densest darkness that the
writer ever tried to penetrate-the
coal oil torches making but little
light ard the flash lights merely
showing one where to step. Because
OF the poor light we did not get as
good a view OF the big cavity rs we
would like but nevertheless we are
glad 20 have seen what was possible.
The party went back IN the cave
the full length to the edge OF the
water but did not venture out on the
lake as the boat was partially filled
with water and with no oars and lack
OF lighting facilities we did not con
slider It best To- venture out How
ever, we are Informed that the dis
tauce back on the lake is fully as
great as that traversed from the en-
trance Of the cave to the edge of the
water
We would suggest for the benefit
Of any who may desire to inspect this
wonderful cave that they be sure to
take plenty OF torches and II they de-
sire 10 go back on the lake TO take
some paddles for the boat. The wa
ter Is clear and cold and we are told
the depth Is as great as u feet
There Is an Indian legend connec-
ted with this cave which the writer
intends to get from an Indian friend
