Tribute to the Iowa regiment with
the Rainbow division is paid by
Corporal William Causey Phillips, Of
the military police, in an interview
Just published in the New York
Evening Post Corporal Phillips has
just returned from overseas having
gone abroad with the Rainbow di-
vision in November 1917. His home
is in Suffolk University and previous
to the war was a student at Wash

After declaring that he found
nothing in his recent stay at Brest to
warrant the commOtion regarding il
on this side Of the Atlantic he con-
tinued
THE Brest situation may be look
ed at from two points of view; just

gentlemen, came out Of action MAIN

ed unscathed and kept their mouths
shut.
1.-THE Iowa men were soldiers. To
the very last man they knew that
war was a serious business; that
mistakes were liable to happen; that
officers from civil life, as we'll as
other officers were bound to blunder.
They accepted all this as part of the
war
THE casualty lists give mute evil
dence of the terrible sacrifices the
Iowa regiment made. l can testify

one who died and not one who es-
capped alive would stoop to besmirch
the name of the American army; to
cast reflection on the regular army

takes of some individual who failed
to rise to some task assigned him.

Cost More to Get Married.

If Representative Hook Of Winnie
shiek county has his way about the
matter it is going to cost more to get
married in Iowa in the future than
it has in the past, as he has framed
up bill before the house raising
the fees for marriage licenses from
$i.00 to $500. This bill certainly
won't strike favor with the averaga
youth contemplating taking the step
of his life, especially in these days
of already high-Cost-of-living Wen
if there are very many bachelors in
the legislatoure we are afraid this
bill Will get the AK. We believe in
giving cupid fair chance, and
what's the use of slipping another
dollar in his way on the road to
happiness. That extra dollar will b..
needed for a rainy day.
Another bill that Representative
Hook has drawn up is to force
county superintendent to enforce
compulsory attendance laws and
those relating to the use of English
for Institutional purposes.

A Bit of Modern History.

Here are two questions in modern
history: How many countries were
engaged in the World War? What
countries were they?
There were twenty-three coun-
tries engaged in the war. On one
side were Germany, Austria-Hun-
gary, Turkey and Bulgaria. On the
other side were Great Britain
France, Belgium, Italy. the United
States, Russia, Roumania, Greece,
Serbia, Montenegro, China, Japan
Portugal, Brazil, Cuba. Liberia, Pan
ANA, San Marine, and Siam. All OF
the dependencies of the great ma
tons, such as Canada, India, Austral,
ia, and much of Africa, were also ac
lively engaged in the war. Ten other
countries severed diplomatic rela-
tons with Germany, but did not
actually declare war. These coun,
tries were Bolivia, Costo RIGA, Ecu.
ador, Egypt, Guatemala, Haiti, Hon
duras, Nicaragua, Puru and Urag
uay.

ly: Every year take my brass

a good time. The members of the

the trips. The train conductor came
along. He poked one of the sleeping
bandsmen and asked him for his
