Well Not Break Faith.

Ethan, S. D., Enterprise: Sixty
thousand boys who went across the
sea will never come back. They
laid down their lives to stop the
triumphant march of a despot, a
crazed monarch at the head Of the
ruthless hosts Of autocracy. II you
can visualize an army Of $4,000
brighteyed boys with bouyant tread,
marching into the east and disappear
ing like the children who followed
the tabled pied Piper Of Hamelin,
into oblivion, you can in a dim way
realize the terrible cost You can
share the poignant grief in the
hearts of those who gave them up.
You can in small way see the ach-
ing void in their hearts, but you
can not fill it. But we will not break
faith with those brave boys who
sleep beneath the crosses row on
row, in Flanders fields where pop
pies grow" Let us buy our Victory
bonds, finish the job and hasten the
day when all our boys will come
home.

plyision of Lee County Men.
This SSth division contains more
keokuk men than any other, and q
considerable number Of Lee county
Ecdiers belong to it.
n Is the division which occupied
Camp Dodge for the first year OF
america's participation in the world
var and to it were sent all the first
selective draft men to leave Lee
county from the Keokuk union sta
ton.
| When Keokuk brought them home
h automobiles for Christmas 1917, the
|Keokuk men were in literally every
|unit Of the division from the depot
brigade and the artillery to the base
hospital and the sanitary corps. The
|artillery units containing many Keo-
|suk soldiers arrived at home weeks
|ago and are already back in civil life.
When They Arrive Here.
The Lee county and keokuk men in
|the SSth division will probably ar
hive back home in Keokuk, Fort Madi-
|scn. West Point, Donnellson, the other
Towns and the townships the latter
lend of next week.
1t is too early YET to forecast ac-
|urately the date Of their return, and
n they are like the other soldiers,
they will filter in for week.
1t has been found impossible to get
THE soldiers to arrive in Keokuk in
limits or even squads Of full size.
Even the men of Company L. 16sth in
fsntry, discharged simultaneously for
tiat very purpose, filtered into their
home town during three days and
Z ghts.
In the Ssth division, the Lee county
men are SO scattered among the diff
feTent units which will probably be
discharged on different days, that it
seems absolutely impossible to have
llem welcomed home here as de-
tachmept
