GRAHAM PRESIDENT
AEE EsissIS, '-~---
MAHASKA CO. TREASURER HEADS
STATE ASSOCIATION

Tullie h. Graham, Treasurer of Ma
haska county has been honored by the
iowa State Association of County
Treasurers in annual convention at
Sioux City Mr.. Graham in addition to
being shown numerous attentions
and favors was made president of the
Association for the ensuing year.
Muscatine was voted the location of
the 1919 meeting. The conventions are
popular and the attendance is increas-
ing each year. The sessions are high
ly beneficial and the association has
been the means of bringing about
many needed reforms in the work of
simplifying and standardizing the
work of the county treasurers of Iowa.
Much has been accomplished but
much more remains to be done. New
problems are coming up that cannot
be handled by the state office. These
are the matters threshed out in an.
nual convention.

EYES OF FRANCE ARE ON NOYON
Little City Symboiizes Presence Of
Hated Invader. on It Depends
the Fate Of Paris

Paris, Aug. 27.-Every eye here is
focused intensely on Noyon, the little
city on the Disc, which was so dear to
the heart of Robert Lewis Stevenson,
but which more than any other place
in France has syInboliZed for nearly
four years all that the presence of the
hated invader of French soil means to
every Frenchman. 1t was to Noyon
that the Germans retreated after their
defeat in the Battle of the Marne in
1914, and at Noyon they remained I'm
til the great strategic retreat of Hin
denburg in the spring of 1917. 1t was
to Noyon they returned on the great
drive last spring.
Noyon is barely fifty-five miles from
Paris as the crow flies up the valley
Valley of the Seine dozen miles out
side of Paris. 1t was down this valley
from Noyon the Germans always plan.
ned to swoop on Paris and the name
of Noyon, consequently for four long
years, has been able to evoke in the
soul OF every Partisan haunting rear
of what might happen.
Les Allenmendes sont Noyon"
(the Germans are at Noyon), was the
phrase Ciemenceau always used dur
ing the first three years OF the war
to remind his countrymen of the aw-
full danger threatening France, before
which every personal party and sec
tional difference must disappear. THE
Germans are at Noyon' has been the
slogan which, more than any other
rallying cry has inspired the French
poilu to follow the grim and logged
uphill task which brought the armies
of the republic imperishable glory.
That is why France awaits today with
intense eagerness the news the an
clent city of the bishops. on the Disc.
has once more become French.

FRENCH RURAL LIFE
DALLAS EDMUNDsoN NOTES IN
TERESTiNG DETAILS.

In letter to his grandmother
Mrs Sarah E. knight, No. 4O9 Fifth
avenue east, Dallas Edmundson, a
former Herald carrier boy, gives a
glimpse of new phase of French
| life at which other letters have
sometimes limited.
Somewhere in France
August 4, 1918.
Dear Grandma We'll, we are back
from the front again. Went last
Friday night and have been pretty
busy ever since. We arrived here
yesterday morning about 6 a. IN. This
is the same place / wrote you from
before. Don't have any idea how
long we will be here this time.
France is beginning it's harvest now
and it sure makes pretty sight. All
have seen is small grain and it is
planted in patches of from one to
nine or ten acres. 1t is mostly cut
and bound by hand with the scythe
and old style cradle. 1t certainly
looks odd. Wonder what they'd
think of an Alberta wheat field.
The cattle, horses and sheep are
all herded by the old men, women and
children with dogs. think the
whole community runs it's livestock
in one bunch and hires some one to
herd it. They have fine looking
stock but the cattle are every color
imaginable
| have seen some mighty fine sheep
dogs at work. In fact we see them
every day when we are back from the
lines. Old John McDaniels should
send over and get one. They also
have two or three milking goats with
every bunch of sheep All stock is
kept in stables at night, even at this
time of year and is very gentle
Today while | was eating dinner a
nice fat little yearling heifer came up
and would have eaten everything I
had If had let her. They are very
fond of bread in particular, horses,
goats, cattle and all. II we have any
scraps left it's very easy to make
friends.
/ sure am glad to get those pic
lures. | expect they'll be worn out
before | get back. Well guess this
is enough for this time. Lots of
love to all.

HUN BUTCHERS RESPONSIBLE
Damages From the Owner of
The Torpedoed Liner

Washington, Aug. 26.-America will
enforce damage claims against the
Germans at the end of the war for loss
of American lives aboard the Lusi-
tania These claims aggregate $6,OOO,-
900. This is the sole manner in which
the relatives of the victims can be
reimbursed in view of the New York;
court decision in dismissing the Lusi-
tania suits against the Cunard steam,
ship Company.
In this case the Judge said the Ger,
mans were responsible for the act and
that Germany would have to pay the
damages.
A fOrty-fve page opinion was made
public today by General Mayer and
absolved the Cunard Liner Company
from the liability and suggested that
the German government be made To
settle when peace terms were made
The company applying ruling on its
liability contended that under the law
il could only be held responsible fol-
the vessels cargo and the baggage OF
the passengers.
Judge Mayor found that the shiT
was not armed and that it carried NJ
explosives and that her destruction
was a willful act of piracy for which
the German government alone mus
be held responsible.

HAMMEs IS HURT
INJURED BY EXPLOSION ON CALL
FIELD IN TEXAS.

John Hammes, son of Mr.. and Mrs.
J. c. Hammes and former Oskaloosa
boy, now an aviator and flying at
Call Field, Wichita Falls, Texas, was
severely injured in a peculiar acct
dent at his camp and is in the
hospital. The mother is with the
boy. John was the victim of an ex-
plosion and was severely burned
about the face, head, arms and
hands He was engaged in loading
a puff" target, an aerial bomb which
is fired upon by the flyers and re-
cords their score. The bomb eX-
ploded in the hands of young Ham
mes. This accident was one of a
number of the same kind of miShaps
to occur on the field recently. The
weather is intensely hot. The hot
Sunday in Iowa is said to have been
mild compared with the burning heat
of the sun and it is believed the in
tense heat may have been responsible
for the numerous mishaps. Ham
mes was several miles from hospital
attention and before he could secure
relief he suffered intensely. Ply
sicians in charge state that the
burns on the face will not leave a
scar and that powder marks will be
overcome in time. John was rest
ing fairly comfortable at last reports,

NEW DRAFT LAW
PERMITS YOUNG MEN TO COM
COMPLETE SCHOOLING.

Much depends upon the wording OF
the new draft law. II arrangement is
made to call young men between Is
and 20, only after older men have been
summoned to service there, will
will be plenty of time to finish their
education and prepare themselves for
officers. 1t is the disposition of the
war department to permit boys of IS
to remain in college until they have
fitted themselves for officers training
camps.
1t is likely, that some arrangements
will be made, to make it possible to
take students from the colleges every
quarter year, as soon as 1t is evident
that they are fitted to be commission.
ed, or non-commissioned officers or
just plain privates.
Under a new plan announced from
Washington this past week, will be
impossible for students to enlist in
this new college army. Recruits will
be entered only by voluntary induction
after the new big draft registration
in September, probably on September
10.
In accordance with this ruling
young men between Is and 81 years
of age. will be Obliged to register
with their draft boards at the time
mentioned, and will be indicted into
the college service, upon application
to the draft board.

No Mercy For The Hun.
That means that we do not under
stand what they mean by that. They
would get out of a hole or trench
where they had machine gun when
we got almost up to them and holler,
kamerad and when we would advance
on them little more they would get
back in the hole and turn the machine
gun on us. That's the kind of a COM
rade they are, ana they also stand up
and fight until their last shell is gone
and then drop their guns, get down
on their knees and hOller kamerad,
but it does them no good when they
get down on their knees as that makes
1t easier to run a bayOnet through

but a fellow does not think of that
when he is up there.
