infantry, entertained one of the larg
est crowds ever assembled in the op
era house, when he described in viv
i'd manner the important part played
by the Iowa boys in the great world
war. The fact that Denison had SEM
ten men with the famous Rainbow di
vision who were with 1t throughout
the war made the lecture of Chaplain
Robb Of all the more interest to the
people of this community. @tiLH
| Orris Suffer, one of the veterans OF
| the 168th infantry, introduced the
speaker. In opening his address Chap

pleasure to address Denison audi
ence on account of the fact that the
community was so well represented In
the 16Sth infantry. Denison, stated the
speaker, made a wonderful war rec.
ord and although the population OF
the community was largely made up
of people of German descent it had
gone over the top in every loan, Red
Cross, Y. NJ C. A. and kindred war
drives.
Chaplain Robb gave most graphic
account of the 168th from the time 1t
was assembled at the state fair
grounds in Des Moines until it was
finally returned to Camp Dodge and
the men discharged from the service.
During their long and hard campaign
the regiment never retreated, lost no
prisoners in battles or raiding parties
and ranked as one of the best sent
from America. :.
The 168th moved into the trenches
in the Lorraine sector for the first
time Feb IS, 1918. AS they marched
out OF the little village they were bill
leted in for the trenches they saw a
cemetery nestled in a, valley with ten
thousand graves of French soldiers
and then it was that the true meaning
|of war was brought home to them.
The behavior of the men under fire
for the first time was excellent, and
not one OF them faltered Or flinched

regiment had their first taste of mod
