Crawford county failed to reach the
goal set for it in the Victory Liberty
loan bond drive which was held
throughout the county on last Thurs
day. 1t was hoped by the chairmen
OF the various township committees
that the county's quota of $1,223,O00
might be subscribed on that day which
would not necessitate prolonged
campaign. !
According to figures received and
compiled by M. +. Jones, county chair
man, up until yesterday afternoon the
county is still short 1927 $50 of its
quota. Three townships, Soldier, Will
low and Denison, had made no report
to the county chairman up until that
time. No doubt many bonds have
been sold in these townships and when
their reports are In the showing OF
the county will not be SO bad.
Liberty loan committees are conf
dent that Crawford county will sub
scribe for its quota within the next
few days. The record made by this
county is not unlike that of a ma
jority of the counties in the state that
failed to reach the goal on the first

THE WORLD war,
fIELDS0F FRANCE
Col. Dan Morgan Smith, Commander
Of Famous battalion Of DEATH"
Speaks In 0enison
PAYS HIGHEST TRIeUTE TO BOYS
Account Given Was Different From
That Usually Given, and Proved
Intensely Interesting to All

The Methodist church was packed
j to capacity on last Thursday evening
when Col. Dan Morgan Smith, COM
mander of the famous Battalion OF
Death which was the First Battalion
of the 35Sth Infantry. of the Goth Divi-
sion, gave his interesting lecture on
THE World War and the Fields OF
France. The meeting opened with
the singing of "The Star Spangled
Banner" by the mems chorus of the
Baptist church, and the speaker was
then introduced by F. L. Hoffman.
Col Smith is most interesting and
forceful speaker and he held the
wrapt attention of his audience
throughout the entire lecture, and it
is the opinion of those who heard him
that 1t was one Of the best talks on
the recent war ever given in this city.
The speaker told in the beginning how
he entered the battle of st. Mihiel
with 1920 men and came out with but
1876, but explained that. it was not on
account Of the loss Of men on the al
lied side that the name of the "Battal-
ion Of Death" was given, but on ac-
count of the large number of casual
ties in the enemy's ranks whom they
encountered in this terrible battle.
His account of the beginning of the
great world war was different from
that usually given, inasmuch as he
stated that the war did not begin with
the rape Of Belgium, but that for many
years past, Germany had been doing
her utmost to convince the United
States that they were the smartest
and most capable nation on the earth.
He stated that in this manner they
expected to gain the respect and con-
fidence of this country. so that we
would not interfere when they waged
war on Europe, with the hopes of con-
quering that country, as we would be-
lieve them to be fully capable of rul-
ing the old world. He went into de-
tail in explaining how the people of
this country were led to think that
the education of our lawyers, doctors.
or teachers was not complete without
several years spent in the famous col
leges of Germany. He also stated that
the kaiser had his representatives in
this country to organize societies in
order to keepsthe German people here
from forgetting the fatherland, and
to instill in them the fact that while
America was a fine place to make
money, their allegiance must still be
pledged to the kaiser, thinking in this

way that he would maintain his hold
on his former subjects, and in case
of war, they would turn against the
United States and rally to the support
of the kaiser. In this he was badly
mistaken however, and the fact that
such a large percentage of our army
was composed of our German popula-
ton, proves that they were not en-
tirely unmindful of what the United
Estates had done for them, and that
they appreciated the benefits derived
from living in this great land, and
were anxious and willing to offer their
lives in the protection Of it.
Col Smith paid the highest tribute
to our great army, which was the best
army in the world, and he spoke very
highly of the wonderful morale of the
soldier boys. He said there was moth
ing wrong with the morale of an army
when all the reprimand needed in
most cases was to tell the offender
that If a misdemeanor was repeated,
he would not be permitted to go to
France to fight!
The speaker gave an interesting ac-
count of his sojourn through England
and France and gave detailed accounts
|Of experiences while billetted in
France. He gave most graphic de-.
scription of life in the first line trench
es, and his account of scouting ex-
petition across No. Mans Land, held
the audience spellbound. He praised
the work Of the Y. M. c. A., and spoke
in highest terms of the Salvation Ar
my.
Col. Smith lectures under the aus
pices of the Anti!Saloon League of
America and the State League, and
he closed his talk with a strong plea
for prohibition, from patriotic stand.
point, and for the honor and protec-
ton of the old flag. He urged upon
the people, the necessity of keeping
up the fight, in order to demand re-
spect and observance of the constitu-
ton, and the enforcement of the pro-
hibition amendment, when it becomes
valid on July first. Pledges were TAX

large sum of money was raised for the

day. Township organizations will sci
their shoulders to the wheel and there
will be no relaxation until the county
is made 100 per cent.
Six Townships Have Reached Quota
But three townships were able tc
subscribe their quotas on last Thurs
day, they being Washington, Stock
holm and Boyer.
To Washington township belongs the
honor of being the first 100 per cent
township in the county. This was due
to the efforts of Daniel Hemphill, the
local chairman. He called together
a number Of prominent citizens and
they decided to take the entire quota
of the township should they fail.
Washington telephoned at 3 o'clock
Thursday afternoon to Mr.. Jones stat
ing the quota was subscribed.
Second honors go, to Stockholm, as
their report was phoned to Denison at
5 o'clock, and Boyer township made
it's report at 1870 o'clock that night.
Since Thursday three other town
ships have sold their quota, they be-
ing Charter Oak, Hayes and Union.
In Charter Oak township, we are adj
vised that the two banks have taken
up the balance of the quota which
was not subscribed.
Denison Short. $4,000
The city of Denison Is still below
it's quota by some $55,000 Up until
yesterday afternoon the three ward
chairmen had reported $175,000 of the
city's $2S0OOO quota subscribed.
Ward chairmen are not at all con-
cerned over the matter and express
the opinion that Denison will be lover
the top by the end of the week.
On Friday of this week the commit
tee will he at the city hall between
the hours of and 6 in the afternoon,
at which time citizens who have thus
far failed to subscribe are expected to
call and sign up for their share of the
Victory bonds. A careful check is be-
ing made of all subscribers in the city
and If necessary personal solicitation
will be resorted to in an endeavor to
see that all do their duty.
The third ward proved the banner

than the first and second combined.
The first ward received second honors

The campaign in Crawford county
was quiet, there being little enthusi-

quested to visit their usual voting
places and there sign up the applica-
lions for their share of the bonds.
Here in Denison business continued
as usual as 1t was not thought neces-
sary to close the stores.
Had it not been for the fact that
the daily papers fsthe state in their
Thursday morning editions came out
with the news that iowa had subscrib-
ed it's quota Crawford county would
have raised its quota.
This news had tendency to keep
many people from subscribing for
bonds, thinking that it would not be
