1894, to Max Jacob Rummel and bis
wife, Louise. At the age of three
months she wac baptised, and when
16 years old she wa sconfirmed ac
cording to Lutheran usage. After
graduation from school she chose tin
profession of teaching, and served an
school teacher three years in her
home school district.
Clara took special interest in the
Sunday School and Christian En
deavor work of the community, and
thereby gave practical testimony of
the faith she had professed. Her
happy-joyful disposition in charac
ter and bearing won her many
friends. She was a young woman
of good health and as it was not
known that she was sick, the com
munity was overwhelmed with grief
and sympathy with the mourning
family. One to whom Clara's heart
probably was nearest, possibly has
no knowledge yet of what has hap
pened. She was engaged to be mar
ried to Harry B. "Hall, who at pre
sent is in the service of his country,
and is now on his way to overseas
service.

News. He is a nephew of Mr. and
Mrs. Will Rummell:

My Dear Wife:
I received two of your letters to
day. Also three Plainview News.
They were quite old but new for us
and we sure read everything in them

your letters in my pocket now and
read them over and over when
don't hear from you for a while. Wc

the Boche couldn t identify us so
easily if we should be captured.
Hope they never get me. They will

seven miles today and took 12,000
: prisoners. We will soon have them
all if we keep this up. Some of the
prisoners said that the war was over
but the Kaiser didn't know it. When
the Boche find out that the Ameri
cans are coming they either riin or
throw up their hands and holler
"Comrad." I suppose the war news
in the papers now days sounds 'fishy'
to some people but our armies are
certainly doing wonderful work and
you can believe every bit of it. We
are close to Metz now and will take
that before long. This town is well
fortified and will no doubt be hard
to take, but there isn't anything
impossible for the Americans. The
different places that we have taken
so far are sure blowed up. I have
seen them and no one could have
lived there under such shelling. I'm
writing this by the light of a candle.
Am quite a ways back of the lines
tonight so I guess it won't make
much difference about lights. We
are not supposed to have any lights
whatever.
Well I must close or I won't get
much sleep. I have to level those
oats up so I can make my bed. I
can hear the guns roaring in the
distance it sounds like thunder.
Don't worry about me. I'm getting
along fine and am real well. We will
soon have the kaiser whipped
then for the V. S. again.

neck, then hanged to a pole 'and
treated to a bath of gasoline, light

and it was a great sight to see him
burn while everyone cheered.
Hats OS to the Victory Girls!
Twenty-three eager girls attend
ed the meeting Sa'turday, Nov. 9.
held at the M. XV. A. hall. Here
they learned how they could assist
the seven organizations in the Unit
ed a War Work Campaign.
I'eace being restored must not
interfere with this campaign as the
entire amount asked for in this cam
paign will be needed, for it is esti
mated that at least 12 months will
be required to bring home the
American Army- The period of
demobilization must not be allowed
to Lecome a period of demoraliza
tion. Wef have followed our boy3 to
the front line trenches in France
and we must stay with them until
they are safely home again.
I bespeak for those girls' pledg
ing to "earn and give" a splendid
future, for they are girls with high
ideals, sympathetic hearts, and de
termination to contribute their
share toward the wiping out of
autocracy. When world peace has
been permanently established, all
honor will be given to the Victory
Girls and Victory Boys of this state
because of their noble work.
Pledges may be paid to H. V.
McDonald, chairman of Local War
Council.
