COMPILED, PRINTED AMD PUBLISHED BY THE GLOBE—GAZETTE PRINTING CO." WAHPETON, NORTH DAKOTA 1919 ^ Prefcace "N ATTEMPTING a work of this kind the publishers were con fronted with a huge problem. How it was eventually solved will be known when this volume is off the press. The pub lishers had for a long time felt that a volume of this nature was greatly needed in the county, as a permanent record of the service rendered by Richland county people during the great war. Other partially complete records of the service men had been compiled; Red Cross and Liberty Loan Campaign records were more or less complete; but no attempt had been made to gather all this informa tion into one place, or to make it generally available to the public. The pub lishers therefore decided to undertake the task, trusting to the generosity of the public for assistance in seeing it through. We shall be fully repaid for our trouble by the knowledge of the ready assistance rendered us wherever we have sought for it, and the knowledge that we have given to the people of the county a work of value to future generations. If some small financial profit should come to us through this venture we shall be pleased; but we have always kept' the financial interest secondary to our desire to have the work complete and ac curate. The price of the books has been fixed as low as it was possible to make it. We submit the result of our labors to the public with the hope that they will enjoy glancing over its pages and handing it down to their children as fully as we have enjoyed the work of preparing it, in spite of the many diffi culties which arose.

THE GREAT WORLD WAR

AN ILLUSTRATED REVIEW

•'• |

'••'•-''< HEN the World War ended on November 11th, 1918, the armed forces of 25 nations of the globe had been hurling their armies against each other for more than four years in the most colossal struggle of history. After a con flict without parallel, it ended in its 52d month with a casualty total nearing the ten million mark. Set off by the murder of an ordinary Austrian archduke on June 28th, 1914, by a Serbian political fanatic, the conflagration which had threatened the peace of Europe for decades was thus destined to embroil the leading powers of the world in the most costly and bloody strife known to man. After a month's diplomatic argument over the affair, Austria formally opened hostili ties with her declaration of war on Serbia. General mobilization followed quickly in Russia; a "state of war" was almost immediately declared in Germany. Then on August 1st Germany declared war on Russia, following this with an ultimatum to Belgium demanding that her troops be given free passage across that country. On August 3d, the Teutons included France on their list of enemies. This was followed next day by an ultimatum to Germany from Great Britain demanding that the neutrality of Belgium be respected. When this assurance was not granted by Emperor Wilhelm, Great Britain

A quick succession of war declarations finally involved the greater share of Europe by the end of the summer. Mad with the ruthless spirit of conquest the Central Powers marched their armies off to war in grand fashion, boasting that they would return by Christmas time, the con- querers of Europe. Their amazing preparations for the dream of world power almost brought within their grasp the greedy ambition of the Junkers.

The initial successes of the German army in its advance through Belgium and on to ward Paris astounded the world. England and France reeled and staggered before the terrific onslaught of the famous Prussian Guards and the other crack armies of the Central Powers. Swept off her feet almost by the spectacular aggression of the enemy, the fate of France virtually hung from a thread as the invaders triumphantly swept on and on.

Early in September, when they were practically within reach of Paris, the tide was turned against them in the battle of the Marne, September 6-10. French themselves attribute their good fortune at this point to the hand of the Almighty rather than to their superior military strength at the time. This marked the enemy's point of farthest advance. The atrocities of the advancing Huns during the months of their early triumphs and conquest have been called infamous by conservative journalists and correspondents. Suffice to say, their bloodthirsty ambition to rule and conquer the world knew no bounds, and that their acts and deeds of disgrace will forever remain one of the darkest of the many blotches brought on the German people during the European war. Believing that the United States had no part to play in the war at that time, President Woodrow Wilson, on August 4th, 1914, officially proclaimed the neutrality of the United States. The war was thus confined to Europe for many months, a struggle mainly between the two great European Alliances—the Triple Alliance composing Germany, Austria Hungary and Italy, against the Triple Entente, composing England, Russia and

France. Italy, originally a member of the Triple Alliance, but later one of the chiel powers of the Allies, did not enter the war until 1915. She then declared war on all ol Germany's Allies, but did not break with Germany herself until late in 1916. Before the war she was a member of the Triple Alliance with Germany and Austria but severed this connection to fight with the Allies.

After the marvelous advances of the first year, the great battle' line in Europe re mained practically stationary for nearly three years and extended over more than 300 miles. The large armies of each force fought doggedly, suffered heroically and died willingly, in a mighty death-grip whose battles surpassed the most famous of previous wars for loss of life and destruction of property.

The superb Armies of the Russians in the Eastern theater kept the attention of a large German force occupied and away from the Western Front. This fact aided the Allies tremendously and probably prevented a German Peace in the second and third years of the War.

It was while France, England and Italy were staggering before the last big offensive of the enemy early in 1918 that America's force was thrown into the balance in sub :: 'I stantial numbers. -' il Her declaration of war against Germany on April 6th, 1917, grew out of the Central I Powers' failure to recognize the rights of neutrals on the high seas. Repeatedly the rights of the United States were violated, and just as repeatedly Germany refused to discontinue her ruthless program of submarine warfare against the world. The sinking of the Lusitania on May 7th, 1915, without warning and with the loss of 1154 lives, 114 of whom were Americans, was regarded by a great many as just cause for a declaration of war against Germany. The President and Congress believing differently, failed to act, and it was not until more sinkings of women and children that the United States decided to step into the breach herself.

Regarded as a mere "bluff" by her adversaries, the United States' entrance appar ently failed to cause undue anxiety in Berlin. With an unprepared democracy for another enemy in which a great many were believed to have been opposed to war, Germany had little cause for worry, she declared. But America went to work. The act produced an electrical effect on her people and almost instantly united her various factions, creeds, parties, and nationalities for one purpose—to crush Germany and her Allies. She became a workshop, with no hours, in her determination to end the European fight victoriously, and thus save democracy for the world. Every effort was bended to the cause, every penny of wealth was eagerly held ready for the call, and every atom of energy was expended in her feverish haste to redeem mankind. Her sons by the hundreds of thousands rushed to the colors, as their fathers did in the wars of their day, to see another victory added to the flag which had never known defeat. That the distribution of soldiers throughout the land might be as nearly equit able as possible, Congress passed the Selective Service Act in May, 1918, the greatest mobilization machinery developed by any of the 25 nations at war. Naturally there were obstacles and delays. A nation's task in rising up overnight to send a formidable force three thousand miles overseas to fight for world freedom is not the kind that can be accomplished without some disorder and delay. But loyalty and union did it, and on June 26th, 1917, only two months after the declaration of war, the first American doughboy landed on French soil. On November 3d, 1917, the Yanks had their first clash with the Germans. On January 31st, 1918, a report reached America that American infantrymen were occupying first line trenches for the first time.

By this time the United States had declared a 'state of war existing with Austria Hungary, Germany's chief ally, and had swung her domestic machinery into the greatest war machine conceivable. She had begun to raise by popular bond subscriptions billions of dollars to supply guns and munitions, and food and clothes, for the boys who were going over to France to do the job.

Four Liberty Loans were floated during the war, and the total subscriptions to these amounted to between eighteen and nineteen billions of dollars. This amount was taken by more than 50 million subscribers, and was to be only an insignificant factor in the financing of the war, according to the Treasury Department. This cost when compared with the total cost of the Civil War for four years—approximately $4,000,000,000—is proof enough that the World War was not comparable with any previous war in history. In April, 1919, following the armistice, another Fifth or Victory Loan of approximately the same dimensions as the Fourth, was floated. The wonderfully prompt and generous response of the nation to each of the calls of the Liberty Loans was one of the greatest sources of inspiration for the men in uniform who had gone to fight for those at home. The same patriotic generosity that marked the success of the Liberty Loan was evident in each of the scores of war work drives that were conducted for the various relief and welfare organizations. *

Food conservation—conservation of man-power, the work or fight order, the noble, work of the women who sewed and knitted night and day for the Red Cross and the boys, the curtailment of profits and the simple economy was practiced by rich and poor alike, were but a few of the many war time measures that characterized the life of Amer ica's hundred and some million during the year and a half during which she was at war. ! vj No history of that war will ever have room for a just story of the part played by the loyal home folks—those who waited and prayed, and worked and gave, to keep the home fires burning.

5 sajhi^iyiiiiii^iiiiiiiiiiiiii^ Hiniif SSliill!i!iii!!!liii!iilflIi: IE Foremost among the initial problems of America, after preliminary plans for the raising of her army had been laid, was the problem of transporting them to France, so that their strength might be thrown against the Hun on the battlefield. Shipping was not available, and even though it was being increased at maximum capacity, still there was not more than half as much as was needed to transport the men in the numbers they were being trained and in the numbers they were needed by France and England and Italy.

England gladly placed her available shipping at the disposal of the United States, and before the war had ended she had carried more than one million Yanks to the side of her own men and those of the French, or nearly half of those who had gone overseas. The importance of the United States Navy in the war can hardly be exaggerated. Within less than a month after hostilities were declared, she had sent a detachment of destroyers to European waters. By October, 1918, there were 338 ships of all classes flying the American flag in foreign waters. The operations of the Navy during the war covered the widest scope in its history. They operated in European waters from the Mediter ranean to the White Sea. At Corfu, Gibraltar, in the Bay of Biscay, on the Irish Coast, at the English Channel ports, in the North Sea and at Archangel, they did creditable work. This service was not as brilliant perhaps as that of the army, because the nature of its vital work kept it from the front. Even though its activities were probably less glorious, still they were none the less important and necessary to the cause.

Naval men served on nearly 2000 craft that plied the waters of the globe, on sub marines that had no fear of the under-sea perils, and in aviation where men of courage fought and prevented surprise attacks with new-found weapons.

In diplomacy, in investigation at home and in all parts of the world by naval officers and civilian agents, in protecting industry from enemy spies, in promoting new industries and enlarging older ones to meet war-time needs—these are a few of the accomplish ments that are outstanding in the part played by the Navy in winning the war.

Shortly after the declaration of war, the submarine problem had become so acute and the merchant ship losses so great, it became necessary to adopt more effective methods in dealing with the problem and making shipping safer. The system of convoy was adopted at the suggestion of President Wilson. This, although it slowed up shipping by fully twenty percent, enabled a comparatively safe passage of troops and was probably the greatest stroke of the Navy during the war.

During all the time the United States was engaged in the war the enemy's naval lorces, with the exception of the submarines, were blockaded in his ports. This, of course, prevented naval engagements of a major character. The destroyers, submarine chasers and patrol vessels, however, waged an unceasing offensive against the submarine menace to shipping and troop convoy, and only three vessels were sunk. These were the Antilles, the President Lincoln and the Covington. Each was struck on her return voyage, so that the loss of life was comparatively small. Only three lighting vessels were lost as the result of enemy action—a patrol ship, a torpedo boat destroyer and a cruiser. The other transports and destroyers struck by the enemy during the war reached port without loss of life. Other Transports carrying United States soldiers went down but these were being convoyed by the British Admiralty. Chief among these was the Tuscania, sunk off the Coast of Ireland February 5th, 1918, with a loss of 110 lives.

The most serious loss of fife in the navy as a result of its war-time activity resulted when 111 officers and men of the Coast Guard cutter Tampa perished when their vessel was sunk in Bristol Channel, England, in September, 1918. The Tampa had been doing escort duty in the transport service. It had gone ahead of the convoy and was sunk soon after leaving the party.

With its record of phenomenal transport service in protecting troops and shipping against the enemy submarine offensive; its splendid co-operation with the British Fleet in keeping the German navy in port and Germany herself blockaded; its stellar work I with the giant 14 inch long range guns at the front; and its subsequent spectacular feat !i in first bridging the Atlantic by air, the United States Navy had a share in the World War which although as previously stated is seldom characterized as brilliantly as that of the Army and Marines, still was equally important and essential in keeping the war wheels turning victoriously.

The story ol the activities of America's two million doughboys and marines in France is one which should be told in volumes rather than in paragraphs. From the time of their first^clash with the Germans on November 3d, 1917, until they "let go" the last unwelcome guests against Fritz's lines early November 11th, 1918—their deeds are a succession of courageous and brilliant performances of duty.

John J. Pershing declared in commending the officers and soldiers of the line of the American Army. "Their deeds are immortal, and they have earned the eternal gratitude of our country."

This simple tribute to the brave American lads who fought and died in France is indicative of America's reverence for her heroic armies. Their glory and fame will always live by the side of the deeds of their forbears in previous wars.

In May, 1917, shortly after war was declared, General Pershing, well-known for his •:":. punitive expedition into Mexico, was selected by the War Department to command the American Expeditionary Forces that were to go to France. After gathering about him a small staff the General set sail. His reception in both England and France was only equalled by the readiness of the commanders of both armies to co-operate with the United States in the prosecution of the war, according to the General's own report.

His general staff was organized in a short time and detailed plans worked out for the organization and training of the millions of American soldiers who were expected in France to help finish the Hun. Training areas, designed to give the final seasoning to fresh troops arriving from the States before their entry into the front lines, and officers' schools for the various arms of the service were established.

Extensive construction provided vast warehouses, supply depots, munition store houses, and the like for the huge task ahead. Although France offered much in the way of both ordnance and quartermaster property for use by the American Army, still enormous quantities of materials of all kinds had to be brought across the Atlantic.

Flocking into the Army from civil life were thousands of professional and business men with splendid talent along the lines needed to build up this immense service of supply that was to keep the A. E. F. in action. To meet the shortage of supplies due to lack of shipping, representatives of the various supply departments were constantly in search of supplies and materials in Europe. A general purchasing "agency was pro-

vided, in order to better co-ordinate the purchasing and to prevent competition between departments of the army. So successful was this system in the American Army that it was almost universally adopted by the armies of the Allies before the war had ended.

"Our entry into the war found us with few of the auxiliaries necessary for its conduct in the modern sense," General Pershing declared in his official report. "Among our most importent deficiencies in material were artillery, aviation and tanks. In order to meet our requirements as quickly as possible we accepted the offer of the French Govern ment to provide us from their own factories with the necessary artillery equipment for thirty divisions. In aviation we were in the same situation and here again the French Government came to our aid until we were able to get our own air service program T. ••'I underway. The necessary planes to train the air service personnel were provided and we secured from the French a total of 2676 pursuit, bombing and observation planes. ! The first planes to arrive from America came in May, 1918, and a total of 1379 were received during the war. The first American squadron completely equipped by American production, including airplanes, crossed the German lines on August 7th, 1918. For tanks we also were compelled to rely upon the French. We were less fortunate here, however, for the reason that the French were scarcely able to meet their own production require ments in this respect. It should be remembered by every American that the French Government always took a most liberal attitute in endeavoring to supply the shortages existing in the American Army."

Speaking of the soldiers in Europe General Pershing outlines with words of praise the work done by the various welfare organizations and of the responsive attitude found among the soldiers by these organizations.

"The welfare of the troops touches my responsibility as Commander-in-Chief to the mothers and fathers and kindred of the men who went to France in the impressionable period of youth. They could not have the privilege accorded the soldiers of Europe

Fully realizing that the standard of conduct that should be established for them must have a perma : nent influence on their lives and the character of their future citizenship, the Red Cross, the Young Men's Christian Association, the Knights of Columbus, the Salvation Army and the Jewish Welfare Board, as auxiliaries in this work, were encouraged in every manner possible. The fact that our soldiers, in a land of different customs and language, have borne themselves in a manner in keeping with the cause for which they fought, is due not only to the efforts in their behalf, but much more to other high ideals, their discipline, and their innate sense of self-respect. It should be recorded, however, that the members of these welfare societies have been untiring in their desire to be of real ? service to our officers and men. The patriotic devotion of these representative men and women has given a new significance to the Golden Rule, and we owe to them a debt of gratitude that can never be entirely repaid." ,,

The First Division of the American Army, alter finishing its preliminary training behind the lines, went to the trenches for the first time in October, 1917, as the first contribution to the fighting forces of the Allies. By the time that the great German offensive in Picardy began, on March 21st, 1918, the American army had four experienced divisions in the line. The great crisis that this drive developed, however, made it im possible for the Americans to take over a sector by themselves. Gradually, as their numbers increased and more reserves, fresh from the States, were placed in training behind the lines, the American boys went in in substantial numbers. Already they had displayed their splendid fighting qualities and had demonstrated that as soldiers they had no superiors. Incidentally, it did not take them long to convince the enemy that contrary to their own opinions, they themselves were not invincible.

On August 30th, 1918, the American forces took over the first American sector, in preparation for the St. Mihiel offensive. The American line was soon extended across the Meuse River to the west edge of the Argonne Forest. The concentration of tanks, aviation units, artillery equipment, and materials of all kinds for this first great American offensive was enormous. The scores of elements of a complete army were moulded together, with American railroad and American service of supply units throughout. The concentration included the bringing up of approximately 600,000 troops. The French Independent Air Force, together with British bombing units and American Air forces, • placed the greatest aviation personnel that ever took part in any Western Front offensive under the direct command of General Pershing.

On the day after they had taken the St. Mihiel Salient a great share of the corps and army artillery that had operated in that offensive were on the move toward the area back of the line between the Meuse River and the western edge of the Argonne. The German General Staff was well aware of the consequences of an American success along this line, and it was determined to use every available American division in an effort to force a decision at this point. The attack began on September 26th. The work of the American army and of the American engineers in this drive will forever remain in

the memory of generations to come. Forcing their way through the densely wooded and shell torn areas, their fight was one of the most brilliant battles of the war. The offensive was maintained until October 4th in the face of innumerable wooded patches of snipers and concealed machine gunners.

Fresh troops with little experience were thrown in with their seasoned comrades, who had become veterans over night with this most crucial battle as their teacher. The second phase began with a renewed attack all along the front on October 4th. More positions were taken with a precision and speed that always characterized the Yank army. Their dogged offensive was wearing down the enemy, who, continuing desper ately by throwing his best troops against them, was helpless before the spectacular advance.

At this juncture two divisions were dispatched to Belgium to help the French army near Ypres. On October 23d, the last phase of the Meuse-Argonne offensive began. Violent counter attacks by the enemy lost him heavily, while a regrouping of the Amer ican force was going on for the final drive. Plain evidences, of loss of morale in the enemy- forces gave our men added courage and spirit, and finally, using comparatively fresh divisions, the last advance was begun on November 1st. It was apparent at this time that the end was near for the Boche. Our increased artillery support did remarkable work in supporting the infantry, which by its dashing advance of the several weeks preceding had destroyed the Hun's will to resist.

Between September 26th and November 6th they had taken 26,059 prisoners and 468 guns on this front.

The divisions engaged in this, the most important of America's battles in the Eu ropean war, were the 1st, 2d, 3d, 4th, 5th, 26th, 28th, 29th, 32d, 33d, 35th, 37th, 42d, 77th, 78th, 79th, 80th, 82d, 89th, 90th and 91st. Many of these divisions remained in line for a length of time that required nerves of steel while still others were put back in the line after only a few days of rest.

When the armistice was signed following a complete routing of the enemy by Amer icans in the Argonne Forest there were in France, according to General Pershing, ap proximately 2,053,347 troops, less the casualties. Of this total there were 1,338,169 combatant troops. Up to November 18th the losses were: Killed and wounded, 36,145; died of disease, 14,811; deaths unclassified, 2,204; wounded 179,625; prisoners, 2,163; missing in action 1,160. As against this casualty total, the American forces captured about 44,000 prisoners and 1,400 guns, howitzers and trench mortars.

In this short summary of the principal activities of the United States' part in the great war it is obviously impossible to more than skim over the various features of the great war machinery. The heroism and gallantry of the boys who fought and died over there; the unceasing devotion and courage of the parents and citizens at home who stood by them so unselfishly; and the determination of everyone, young and old, to unite for the common cause, setting aside their personal desires and interests, was responsible for the glorious victory in which America was so conspicuously instrumental in bringing about.

The : I accomplishments of the Liberty Loans, the devotion of the millions of mothers and sisters in behalf of the Red Cross, the wonderful response of the country to the operation of the Selective Service Act in raising an army of millions—the sacrifices of all, at home • and abroad, were universal during the year and a half at which America was at war.

Loyalty and love of country were terms with new meanings. Sedition was lurking only here and there, and this was promptly done away with through the efficient secret service department and popular opinion. The four million American boys who were under arms, many of them at the front and the remainder eager for the chance to jump in, convinced the world that the fighting blood that gave birth to their nation had not been diluted through the riotous living of a century. The brave lads who gave their lives and are now buried over there went to their fate with hearts full of joy, and in a manner that gave courage to the veterans of four years who fought beside them. And their brave mothers in the States who waited in vain for peace to bring then sons back to them, made the greatest sacrifices within their power with a courage and willingness that was unequalled even by the Spartans themselves.

When the history of the great European struggle is permanently written, there will be no more brilliant chapters than those telling of the part played by the United States of America in stamping out militaristic autocracy from the world.

Ulsaker Thomsen Dominick Carl M. Ulsaker, son of Mrs. O. K. Ulsaker, was born September 18, 1892, at Wahpeton. When the United States entered the war, faithful service had won for him the rank of First Lieutenant, and his work was instrumental in bringing about the efficiency of Company I, as a fighting unit. He left the United States with the boys, but on his arrival overseas was assigned to the General Headquart ers Circulation Department, where he was made Captain. Thomas J. Thomsen, son of Mr. and Mrs. Toren Thomsen, was born April 9, 1882, at Thisted, Denmark. His enlistment in Company I, on June 21, 1900, makes him the oldest member in the organization. Succeeding Captain McKean as Company Commander in June of 191 1, he carried on the work with the intrepid zeal and dogged determination which won for him the love of his men and respect of his fellow officers. The fortune of war separated Captain Thomsen from his men shortly after his arrival in France, being assigned to the Army School at Langres, France, as Battalion Commander and Instructor. The signing of the Armistice kept him from receiving the rank of Major, for which he had been officially recommended and which he so deserved. Richland County may well be proud of his service. Leo H. Dominick, son of Mrs. Cora Norton, of Pueblo, Colo., was born September 21, 1892, at Albert Lea, Minnesota. He entered the service May 6, 191 2, and when Company I was mustered into Federal service on July 15, 1917. he had earned a Second Lieutenancy. Before going overseas he was promoted to First Lieutenant and while attending the Army School at Langres, France, was commissioned Captain. Company "I" 1HLAND County was extremely fortunate in having a truly repre sentative organization of soldiers, a band of young men from all parts of the county, sturdy, well drilled boys, many of them vet erans of the camp and march, to carry her glory o'er the seas into that most gigantic struggle of the ages. Richland County may well be proud of the part played by her sons, and should take steps to make Company "I" an organization which will live forever, not only in the pa°;es of history, but in a concrete form, carrying ever with it the traditions which have won it honor in two wars.

PAGE EIGHTY-TWO Company I was organized on the third day of May, 1897, by Captain C. L. Brockway, a very efficient officer with ten years previous service. Captain Brockway, with the very able assistance of William R. Purdon, First Lieutenant, and William B. Aspinwall, Second Lieutenant, developed during the summer of 1897 a fairly efficient military unit. On October 30th of that year Captain Brockway resigned, and a vote by the Company resulted in the election of Wil liam R. Purdon, for Captain; William B. Aspinwall, First Lieutenant, and Jos. A. Slattery Second Lieutenant. These men were duly commissioned Jan. 26, 1898. Among members of the Company were such men as Robert T. Barber, Mark I. Forkner, Fred L. Bowman, Robert Hughes, Robert Lunday and Karl Mikkelson. At the opening of the War with Spain the call was sounded for volun teers. The Guard at that time was purely a state organization and could not be forced to serve on foreign soil. Company I immediately offered itself for Fed eral service and was accepted. The unit left here with about eighty-two mem bers as Company I, First North Dakota, United States Volunteers and served for eighteen months in the Philippines, as part of the Eighth Army Corps. During these eighteen months they took part in eighteen engagements. George Schneller was killed in action and Otto Boehler won the Congressional Medal for distinguished service, while serving as a scout. All through the cam paign they remained intact as a unit and the glory they won reflected directly upon the county which sent them. All through the "piping times of peace" which followed they continued their drill faithfully. In 1908 Captain Purdon accepted a commission as Major and was succeeded by Arthur McKean who had served in the Philippine cam paign as First Sergeant. William R. Purdon will ever remain one of the bright est stars in North Dakota's Military History. At the time of his death in 191 1, he held the rank of Lieutenant Colonel. His meteoric career was the logical result of his unstinted patriotism and fervent love of action. The blast of the trumpet was to him the breath of life. He was, above all, a true gentleman and faithful soldier. May his kind never perish. Thomas J. Thomsen came to light at about this time. Having enlisted on June 21, 1900, his faithful service won for him a consistent promotion. Upon the retirement of Captain McKean on June 13, 191 1, he was elected Captain and immediately proceeded to build up the organization which was destined to win so much renown in only a few years. On July 25, 1916, the organization was mustered into Federal service for Border Duty. They arrived at Mercedes, Texas, on August 22, 1916. A few months of patrol duty put the unit in excellent condition as soldiers, and when they returned in February of 1917, they were indeed in a high state of prepared ness. It was this body of men then that passed the Federal Examination with a snap and were brought back into active service on July 15, 1917. The Com pany at that time consisted of between eighty-five and a hundred men. This number was rapidly increased until on that memorable night of Sept. 30th, a crowd of over four thousand people from all parts of the county bade farewell to One Hundred and Fifty-four of the finest officers and men who ever should ered a ride. They were gone. Most of them have returned, some could not and never will. Let us hope that Richland County will always be ready to give America such fighting stock as went with Company I.

Richland County Chapter American Red Cross

jHE organization which carried to the people of the world the expression of the finest side of the American char acter, was the American Red Cross. The function of this organization was not to occupy a sector in the front-line trenches— the object of its sacrifices was not to force its opin ion on the men who grappled hand to hand with the enemy; it existed to serve those who every hour of the day faced death. It administered that service to our soldiers and sailors wherever and whenever that service was needed, in the hell of "No Man's Land," in the rest camps, in the training camps and to the dependents of those who went, at home.

The field for relief had no limit. Half the world was a pool of blood, and suffering was everywhere. Only the highest degree of efficiency could meet the situation and hope to get any results. The peace time Red Cross organization which consisted of some 300,000 members throughout the country had one headquarters at Washington, which worked in direct communication with the Chapters, which were only established in the larger cities. Although this plan served its purpose admirably, our entrance into the li War increased the membership of the Red Cross to 5,000,000 almost over night, and as the desire to share in the work increased this" number rose in pro portion—it was quickly seen that the handling of the problems of so many chapters from one headquarters was impossible. Accordingly, the country was divid ed into fourteen groups, which covered all of the states and also our insular and foreign possessions, each one of these groups having its headquarters in its own sphere and as much as possible a replica.of the national Headquarters. By this dividing of the territory, North Dakota came under the Northern Division with headquarters at Minneapolis, and the work of organizing chapters, branches and auxiliaries proceeded. It was to this decentralizing of the or ganization that the wonderful results of the entire work can be credited, for \* brought the individual members into closer contact with the actual field of service, by giving them a share in the responsibility and management of the Red Cross.

PAGE ONE HUNDRED FIVE RICHLAND COUNTY! .ISSE?.« _—/ 1.. . :

The Richland County Chapter was organized May 30, 1917, and an election of officers was held. By this election W. E. Purcell was made chairman; W. A. Farnsworth, Sec; John P. Reeder, Treas.; and an auditing committee was formed, consisting of three members, namely, F. B. Schneller, H. W. Rife and J. W. Green. Under this Chapter organization, Branches were established throughout the county and the machinery of government set in motion. Much credit is due these pioneers for their work during this period, for as yet the Red Cross, as a whole, was very inefficient, and many questions arose which were mastered only by the tireless toil and masterful ingenuity of the local leaders. In the early fall of 1917 the National Red Cross had developed from its crude, clumsy form into a powerful, well balanced, smoothly running machine, and the call for uniformity was sent out from Division Headquarters in order lo expedite the work. Hence, on Sept. 12, 191 7, the Richland County Chapter was reorganized to conform to the revised laws and to take advantage of the many suggestions offered by Division Headquarters. Under this reorganization the following Board of Directors was elected, to serve under the provisions of the By-Laws until Oct. 31, 1919: W. E. Purcell, J. P. Reeder, W. A. Farns worth, Henry Connolly, Rev. A. Jande, Rev. W. M. Walton, Louis Fligelman, Fred E. Smith, Rev. A. Ridder, Victor Fandel, Mrs. P. H. Murray, Mrs. Sarah Falley, Mrs. Mary Lane, Mrs. Annie Braun, Mrs. R. II. Devine and Mrs. R. T Barber. The following officers were duly elected by and from the Board of Direc tors: W. E. Purcell, Chairman; W. A. Farnsworth, Sec. ; W. S. Lauder, Vice Chairman; J. P. Reeder, Treas. The following were named as the executive committee: W. E. Purcell, W. A. Farnsworth, Louis Fligelman, Mrs. R. T. Barber, Mrs. R. H. Devine. From then on the work progressed with leaps and bounds. Additional branches were organized; memberships increased and results soared high above the realms of hope. A task assigned became a task completed. Literally many hands made the work light, and there was work for all hands. Although only a few ambidextrous males mastered the art of wielding the needles with ease and accuracy, their deficiency in socks was made up in enthusiasm, solicitations, and subscriptions. The reckless abandon with which pink packages were purchased at the auction sales was only matched by the ingenuity and skill of the nimble fingers which had so deftly camouflaged the wicker wonders. These figures will in part tell the story of the way about 2,000 patriotic Richland County women, the volunteer industrial army of the Richland County Chapter of the Red Cross, backed up the cause of humanity and justice for which their sons and brothers battled. In the weary months of war the tireless fingers of these loyal workers produced 12,062 knitted articles, 18,030 hospital supplies, 6,775 refugee garments, 66,073 surgical dressings, 548 miscellaneous articles, 17 afghans and quilts and 12 property bags—a total of 103,517 neces sary articles turned out while keeping the home fires burning. The work put into these articles, at an estimate of 20 cents each, would be worth over $20,000, but no statistician is capable of estimating the spiritual value of their product— the tenderness, the patriotic fervor and the prayers that have gone into each article. They have helped in a great work. Theirs lias been an errand of mercy. Their reward is not the thanks of the world ; their reward is not the tribute of an appreciative people; their reward is their own keen satisfaction in a noble work well done.

PAGE ONE HUNDRED TWKNTY-EIUUT The Champion Knitters and Others jN the foregoing pages it was of course impossible to include everyone who had assisted in Red Cross work. The editors, when asking for photographs, had decided upon eleven persons as the average num ber desirable in branch groups—to include the executive committee and some half dozen active workers—and left the selection of those in the picture to the Branch itself. However, there are a number of workers in various parts of the county who really deserve special mention, and whose work may be considered typical of the spirit of the home folks during the Great War. Some few of those are mentioned here. It should be distinctly understood by the reader that the choice of photo graphs published here is in no case that of the editors. Each branch was re quested to furnish photographs of any such workers. The photos shown on this page are the contributions. _^^| 1^^. Mrs. Mont Thompson of Fairmount, in addition to being an active worker in the regular line of Red (Toss duty, purchased an immense Service (lag which she presented to Fairmount, after having personally sewed one hundred and four stars upon this Hag, each representing a man from Fairmount or vicinity. Six blue stars were replaced by gold ones, in token of those who gave their lives; five by silver stars, for those who were wounded ; the remaining ninety-three stars representing the men who came safely through to the end of the war. Mrs. Thompson kept the flag in her care during the war, and saw thai il was dis played upon all fitting occasions.

This photograph shows Mrs. Martha W. Ballard of Fairmount, at the age of eighty-one, taken while busy plying her knitting needles for the Red Cross. She was a most industrious worker, and her total out put of knitted articles surely entitles her to second place in the race for the title of Champion Knitter of the county. Hers is a record of which the whole county may well be proud.

Mrs. Harriet Merritield of Hankinson was one of the most industrious Red Cross workers of the Han kinson branch. Her photograph was to have been included with the Hankinson group picture, but was received just too late. The publishers are glad to give it space on this page.

PAGE ONE HUNDRED TWENTY NINE gttreitMiiiiiwIMEEBS^ HIGHLAND COUNTY & EMJjJiijjiijjjiiauum^

The title of Champion Knitter of Richland county undoubedly must be awarded to Mrs. Helen T. Sleeper of Wahpeton. Mrs. Sleeper was eighty-three years of age at the time of the organization of the Wahpeton branch. Almost from the first day, she devoted nearly her whole time to knitting. Having been a skilled worker with the needles in her younger days, she found that time had not slowed up her fingers. "A sock a day" was Mrs. Sleeper's motto, and she continued at that rate with hardly a hitch straight through to the end. Mrs. Sleeper's photograph will be found a few pages back in the group picture of the Wahpeton branch. Her record is one equalled by few women of any age during the war.

Liberty Loans

EVER before in all financial history has there beeen an organization capable of undertaking the tremendous task of raising the billions of dollars neces sary to carry on the war. Certainly, one of the greatest of the many distinctively American achievemenets in bringing the Central Powers to their senses was the efficient manner in which the government "put over" the five mammoth Liberty Loans. But still there was another factor which helped mightily, which made millions seem paltry and which branded every penny with the generous seal of a liberty loving people—patriotism. It was not the siren call of usury which prompted the people to buy bonds; it was not the "coupons attached" which caused the people to lend, although certainly these coupons served as seasoning in the soup; the reason why every one of the five loans went over the top can be summed up in one word—duty. Much of the credit for the success belongs to those who bought; but those who worked should receive the thanks of the entire country. They worked without compensation and in many instances at great sacrifice; they worked and obtained the results which will ever live as one of the brightest chapters of democracy's history, ever efficient, ever patient and ever cheerful.

Richland County's response to the calls of the five Liberty Loan issues during the war was wonderfully prompt and generous. The patriotism of her citizens was concretely expressed in the purchase of more than a half million dollars worth of bonds over the quota, making a total of over two and three-quarters million dollars. Much credit is due to William F. Eckes for this remarkable showing. As county chairman he divided ••>. the county into nine districts, using as much as possible the same methods of administration in the county as were adopted by the national chairman in covering the entire country. Each of these nine dis tricts had its chairman who again divided his ter ritory along township lines and appointed township chairmen to take charge of the work within the limits of their townships respectively. In several in stances these township chairmen did all soliciting themselves but in the majority of cases a committee was appointed to cover the ground, thoroughly and systematically.

PAGE ONE HUNDRED THIRTY-THUEf , :M

In the Third, fourth and Fifth Loans, Mr. Eckes was assisted very mate rially by Mrs. Dan R. Jones, as chairman of the woman's committee, Joe Dietz, as chairman of the Publicity Bureau, and Victor Fandel, as chairman of the Speakers' Bureau.

The division of the county into districts was as follows:

I • Paulson, Chairman City of Wahpeton Village of Abercrombie Center Township Colfax Township Dwight Township Abercrombie Township, East Half ?.'

Berg, Chairman Fairmounl Townsh: De Villi) Township Ante lope La Mars Township ey fownsh P As soon as the county quota had been learned from the State Headquarters, it was divided up among the nine districts in proportion, mainly to the taxable property within the district. 'This scheme was carried on by the district chairmen and was responsible to a very large degree for the success of the Loans, as it gave each township a certain goal to reach and placed them on a competitive basis.

The first loan, of May, 1917, was absorbed entirely by the banks of the

PAGE ONE HUNDRED THIRTY-FOUR asr 'saasEatinairinsEirii MCH1LAND COUNTY

county. Mr. Myhra, of Wahpeton, acted as chairman and with the assistance of W. F. Eckes, the entire $72,500 worth was sold "over the counter."

In the middle of October of 191 7, the call of the Second Loan was made. Two hundred thousand dollars was asked for, nearly three times as much as was subscribed in the preceding loan. With only a few days for preparation, W. F. Eckes accepted the position of county chairman. A hurried organization was effected. Long faces and ominous predictions greeted the solicitors but with the aid of the banks the quota was over-subscribed $91,540. The second loan taught a great lesson to the workers. Other loans were looming up in the very near future. Larger loans would have to be made. Where was the money to come from ?

The entire situation was studied scientifically. 'The greatest problem was to organize the people of the county so that they might work in harmony, regardless of their great differences of nationality and temperament. It early appeared lo the leaders that this organization should have for its purpose, not only the dis tribution of the government's securities, but also, to so conduct its campaign that it would at the same time make better American citizens, for without a deep and abiding faith in American institutions, and American ideals, the proper distribu tion of the securities would be impossible, and a failure to distribute properly the securities meant that instead of the people purchasing them it would be necessary to have them taken up by the banks, a process wrong in principle as well as practice. To that end, then, a comprehensive educational campaign was con ducted, through the medium of the press, through speakers and through personal contact. How successful these campaigns were can be appreciated by a glance at the results obtained.

In the Third Loan, with a quota of $200,000, $431,350 were subscribed. The Fourth Loan, with an allotment of $825,000 was over-subscribed nearly $200,000, the final total being $1,000,150, and then came the big "Fifth" in which the quota of $945,000 was made to look like an ant hill. Richland County established its right to go down forever in history as a community of generous, home loving, patriotic citizens who "finished the job."

'The five great loans are now history and this county has indeed reason to be proud of its record and of its citizens who made that record what it is. They not only undertook the task but accomplished it magnificently. When we think of the splendid manner in which they took hold of their work, serving without compensation of any kind, giving so magnanimously of their time and energy, with pride alone in their hearts that they were going to see that their township, district and county came out with due credit, we have reason to he proud of them. It has provided them with a wonderful opportunity to demonstrate their loyalty to their country.

United War Work Campaign

HE decision to consolidate the work of raising funds for the various welfare and relief works for soldiers in camp and in the field, brought about the United War Work Campaign for funds in November, 1918. When the government asked for a gift of $170,500,000 from the American people to support the seven training camp activities for soldiers, it asked for a gift more than twice as great as the world had ever seen

Leach before. 'This huge war chest was raised in order that our American soldiers at home or overseas, might enjoy the churches, homes, thea ters, schools, clubs and athletics that had been estab lished for them by the various independent organi zations, doing training camp work, and that they might be reassured that the folks back home were with them, heart and soul.. The United War Work Campaign was undertaken to do away with the many separate drives neces sary for these various societies to carry on their work. The same efficient decentralization, which characterized the Red Cross and Liberty Loan or ganizations, was largely responsible for the wpnder- ful success of the War Work Campaign. Divisions and subdivisions of territory brought the responsibil ity directly upon the shoulder of the individual workers. Richland County, with Ransom, Sargent and Dickey counties made up a district which did credit to its state and to the United States. Mr. O. A. Leach, of Wahpeton, served as district chairman and was rewarded for his untiring work of organization

PAGE ONE HUNDRED FIFTY ONE MCHiLAri : : ;.': : i nELlDiWr COUNTY

The success within our county was due chiefly to the splendid organization of the workers under the direc tion of Mr. Dan R. Jones, of Wahpeton, who, by virtue of being Chairman of the Y. M. C. A. Drives, acted as County Chairman of the United War Cam paign. He was assisted by Geo. F. Reeder, chairman, Knights of Columbus; Miss Lilian Mirick, chairman, Y. W. C. A.; Mrs. Jessie C. Searing, chairman, Amer ican Library Association; R. M. Lunday, chairman, War Camp Community Service; and Aaron Stern, Jewish Welfare Board. The drive began throughout the country on Nov. II, 1918, and eight days of work revealed the figures Reeder which proved again that Richland County was a won derfully loyal and patriotic community. To obtain photographs of all who aided in the noble work would obviously have been impossible. The names of the district chairmen are listed be low. At the time that these men put over this drive, the influenza epidemic was at its height and even the elements seemed bent on making the work difficult for a succession of heavy rains had made the roads almost impassable. William Roberts of Colfax, Louis Fligelman of Wahpeton, Math Lynch of Lidger wood, and E. J. Hasty and John Miller of Summit Township, deserve special mention.

Richland County Draft Board

LEFT TO RIGHT—P. 0. WOLD, F. A. BURTON, DR. R. II DEVINE, GEO. VAN ARNAM, A. H. MILLER

NDER the Selective Service Law of May 18, 1917, a Local Draft Board was organized to furnish Uncle Sam such men from Rich land County as were needed for military service, without crippling the wheels of industry at home. This board proper consisted of three men, P. O. Wold, chairman; F. A. Burton, secretary; Dr. R. H. Devine, surgeon. Judge Geo. Van Arnam was appointed Government Appeal Agent, and Arthur H. Miller, clerk of the board. To examine the men and classify them for military duty; to carefully act upon exemption claims, that injustices might be reduced to the minimum; virtually to direct the man power of Richland County into the channels which would best serve the nation in its grave crisis—this was the tremendously responsible task assigned to these men.

On June 5, 1917, all men of the county between the ages of 21 and 31 registered for the big lottery, 1,896 in all. On June 5, 1918, those young men who had reached the age of 2 1 since the first registration day, were called upon to enroll themselves, numbering in all 177, and again on August 24th of that year a call brought in 47 more who had crossed the threshold of 2 1. On Septem ber 12, 1918, in response to a more drastic law calling for all males between the ages of 18 and 45 to register, 2,393 more Richland County men prepared to answer the bugle's call.

Thus we have a figure on which to base an estimate of the work done by our Draft Board; 4,513 men had to be weighed in the balance; 4,513 men had to be examined, questioned and classified, and certainly the object for which these men were classified did not make their task a very pleasant one.

According to the figures of the clerk, Mr. Miller, 742 Richland County men were accepted by Uncle Sam, through the selective service system. On the night of September 6, 191 7, the first of the drafted men, consisting of five per cent of

PAGE ONE HUNDRED FIFTY-THREE LEFT TO RIGHT—DR. IYI. U. IVES, DR. I. C. J. WIIG, DR. H. H. PFISTER, DR. T. O'BRIEN

the quota, or three men, left Wahpeton, for Des Moines, la. 'The second contin gent, 26 in all, left for Camp Dodge, Iowa, September 22, 1917, making a total of 29 men of the county's quota of 66. In December 1917, the "questionnaire" system was adopted as the most equitable manner in which to handle the draft as well as the most efficient means of mobilizing a large army and at the same time maintaining a great working army at home. The questionnaires were mailed to every registrant, in the twenty-day period beginning December 15, 1917. Within seven days from the date of mailing, they were required to be returned to the local board. Upon the return of these papmphleets the most irksome drudgery began. 'There being five classes provided for, the work of classifying the men into their proper group meant long nights of weary grind. The mass of data had to be checked with the greatest of accuracy; every detail had to be given due consideration, lest some slight oversight should place a burden on shoulders too frail for the task. They worked faithfully, without remuneration. Commissions were to be given them at one time, and salaries at another, but they have received nothing. They wanted nothing, and were glad and willing to do their work for their country's sake.

In order to settle questions of physical ability more advisedly, a board of Richland County Doctors was appointed. This Medical Advisory Board was made up of Doctor M. U. I vers of Christine, and Doctors Wiig, Pftster and O'Brien of Wahpeton. They devoted much of their time to their government and gave freely of their professional ability. As the Medical Advisory Board passed upon questions of a physical nature, so did the Legal Advisory Board direct, as much as possible, the work along the proper lines in regard to an interpretation of the law. This committee was made up of three of the county's ablest attorneys, namely, Jos. G. Forbes, Chair man ; W. E. Purcell and W. S. Lauder. This committee was authorized to ap-

The Agricultural Agent's Part •

George P. Wolf

JMONG all the things which from time to time were declared to be the most important in winning the war, food stood No. i in the front rank. Food was necessary, not only to feed ourselves and our armies, but to feed our hard-pressed allies in Europe. Accord ingly, the production of foodstuffs of all sorts was of the greatest importance. Richland county, normally one of the greatest food producing counties in the Northwest, outdid herself during the war period. Every demand of the government for more food production was met. And the county agricul tural agent, George P. Wolf, played an important part in this production. The greatest difficulty to be met was the shortage of labor for harvesting the enormous crops. Most of the young men being "in service," it was necessary that each man remaining at home do more than his regular share of harvest ffl work. But that would not meet the emergency, for the thousands of laborers who annually in normal times appeared in the harvest fields seeking work did not appear in 1918—they were in the army, also. Only the most careful co-op eration could make the supply of labor adequate. The county agent's office, by co-operating with the federal labor agencies, placed hundreds of men in the harvest fields that year, and by so doing literally saved the enormous crop which otherwise would have remained unharvested. In this work he was greatly assisted by volunteers from the cities and towns, who formed a wonderful army of "shock troops" and made daily trips to the nearby fields to assist in shocking the new cut grain. The county agricultural agent's office may be said to have been the center of the county's agricultural activities. By bringing about organization of the far mers into groups and clubs of various natures, for the purpose of getting more ef ficient cooperation ; by consulting with the farmers and advising them in many cases as to the most profitable and most needed crops; by explaining the govern ment's requirements; and by inducing farmers and other land owners to seed and cultivate every available acre of ground, and then furnishing the men to sec that the resulting huge crop was saved—by these means the county agent played a most important part in the success of the United States and her allies in the Great War.

"Four-Minute ' Men HEN the United States entered the great war, many people there were who as yet had not fully grasped the significance of the step. There was much confusion regarding the purposes and aims of the government. Many war-time regulations had to be put in force, and certain restrictions had to be placed upon the people. In addi tion, it was necessary that the public be "educated" to the necessity of subscribing to Liberty bonds, the various war work funds, War Savings Stamps, etc.; to help win the war by observing all regulations which governed the use of coal during the shortage; to particularly observe the rules regarding consumption of food, in order that "food might win the war;" and not the least part of the work of this branch of government activities was the educational campaign which taught true Americanism. To bring these lessons home to the people, it was necessary to talk to them. This was done by a volunteer organization known as the "Four Minute Men" whose duty was to make speeches of about four minutes duration wherever a crowd was assembled. The topics on which they were to speak were furnished by the national headquarters, and an outline accompanying the topic was to be • followed, thus making the teachings of the entire organization uniform through out the whole country. Speeches were made nightly for long periods in all the larger towns, and less frequently in the smaller places. Every performance at a theater, during certain periods, gave four minutes for one of these speakers. Public gatherings of all sorts heard these men on many subjects; and it is believed that their work was largely responsible for the success of the government in putting over many of its greatest projects. 'Their work was entirely without pay, and was gladly and thoroughly done. Joseph G. Forbes of Wahpeton received the appointment as chairman of Four Minute Men for Richland county. Mr. Forbes received the topics and out lines of the four-minute talks from headquarters, and made his assignments of speakers and places. Rare indeed was the report of a failure to appear for duty —and when it occurred, there was always a valid excuse. Those whom Mr. Forbes appointed and who served actively in the county were:

Haugen, John Hell, Jr. War Savings Stamps HEN the United States entered the war, it became necessary to raise billions of dollars for use in carrying on the war. The greater part of this money was raised by means of the Liberty Loans, and when this money ran short, funds were raised for short periods by issuing certificates of indebtedness. However, it was plainly seen that if the war continued for several years it would be necessary for the people to begin to save their money carefully, and invest the surplus in government securities. To promote thrift among the people, and to induce the habit of saving, the plan of the War Savings Stamps was introduced. This was an adaptation of the plan already in use in England and France. War Savings Stamps were in reality five dollar government bonds, put out in the form of a stamp, for convenience in handling, and were affixed to a printed card. "'Thrift cards" were issued to anyone free, to be filled with "thrift stamps" at twenty-five cents each. These thrift stamps and war savings stamps were on sale at every postoffice in the land. When a purchaser had accumu lated enough twenty-five cent thrift stamps they were exchanged for a war sav ing stamp. Better to induce the thrift habit, these stamps were placed on sale at every bank in Richland county, and at many of the stores. People acquired the habit of asking for a thrift stamp or two whenever receiving change for a purchase at a store. Children started thrift cards, and everybody took a hand. The Thrift Stamp idea being something new, and the American people not having any too great an inclination to watch their spending of small change, a campaign of education and solicitation was necessary, much the same as for the sale of Liberty Bonds. For this purpose it was necessary to form an organization.

PAGE ONE HUNDRED FIFTY-EIGHT R. J. Hughes of Wahpeton was named chairman of this organization. He appointed a district chairman or moderator in each township, city and village in the county. Public meetings were held at which the idea of the savings stamps was explained, and subscriptions were taken. At first most of the subscriptions came in larger amounts from those who had a little money free for investment. The development of the thrift idea came more slowly, but when this book was written, late in 1919, the second year of the War Savings Stamps was drawing to a close, and the gvernment had decided to continue it through 1920 and in definitely thereafter, because so many people had come to demand it. In the following list of the moderators and workers of the county, the greater part of them have photographs shown elsewhere in this book; a few pho tographs could not be secured. Some are shown at the head of this article.

PAGE ONE HUNDRED FIFTY-NINE S THIS volume is intended to give to the people a concise history of the activities of Richland county people during the period of the war, it could not be complete unless mention were made of the work of the Boy Scouts. 'Their work was so important that Uncle Sam himself recognized the organi zation, and awarded many a handsome medal to the young sters for distinguished services. Wahpeton Troop No. i was organized in April, 1917, and was registered at national headquarters at New York on June 15 of that year. The original membership numbered twelve boys, and five men as officials, as follows: Scout committee, Dr. R. H. Devine, 0. A. Leach, C. H. Hanson; scout master, H. W. Rife; assistant scout master, Rev. E. L. Hobbs; scouts, Robert Heath, Vernon Forbes, Lloyd Fisher, Victor Parsons, Paul Wiig, Clifford Peterson, Jesse Good, Carl Anderson, Norman Ross, Roman F'orman, Donald Johnson, Wesley Matthias. As soon as the organization was completed, the troop took up the war pro gram which was issued from national headquarters for the guidance of all troops. One of the first steps taken by the troop was the, halving of the candy-consump tion by the members, both as a sugar-saving measure and a health measure. While the enrollment never reached that figure at any one time, during the war period some forty boys took part in war activities as Scouts. Ten Scouts helped the food production program by working on farms during vacations; ten boys cared for garden plots, and ten others had large war gardens of their own. In the campaign for books for the use of the soldiers in their cantonments, the Scouts gathered 100 books which were acceptable. In addition to which, the troop raised fifty dollars in 1919 for extension work in the national organization. Probably the greatest service rendered by the Scouts was their assistance in the various government loans. To the Scouts was given the disagreeable part of the task—that of "clean-up" men, after the regular solicitors had completed their rounds. The boys sold government securities as follows: 2nd Liberty Loan, 9 Scouts selling, 65 bonds $ 3,550 3rd Liberty Loan, 7 Scouts selling, 37 bonds 3,000 4th Liberty Loan, 6 Scouts selling, 33 bonds 5>3°° 5th Liberty Loan, 10 Scouts selling, 100 bonds 6,000

Total Bond Sales $17,850

For faithful and distinguished service in the Second Liberty Loan cam paign, Uncle Sam awarded medals to Paul Wiig, Donald Farnsworth, Vernon Forbes, Victor Parsons and Robert Heath. In the Third campaign a medal was awarded by the government to Gordon Reeder; in the Fourth, to Robert Barnes, • and in the Fifth, John Wiig, George Fisher, Robert Barnes, Olin Lunday and Vernon Forbes. George Fisher and Robert Barnes also received German helmets as awards of honor for work in this campaign. 'The total sales of War Savings Stamps made through the Scouts was $15,143.75. Gordon Reeder made the highest record, disposing of $6,818.50 worth of the green stamps. The boys who received government medals in this cam paign were Scout Master H. W. Rife, Gordon Reeder, Olin Lunday, Maynard Hedrick, Donald Farnsworth, Clifford Peterson, Vernon Forbes, Paul Wiig, John Wiig, Robert Barnes and Jerome Oppenheimer.

Junior Red Cross

In April, 1918, the Junior Red Cross Auxiliary to Richland County Chapter was organized, the members being pupils in the Richland County Schools. The following committee was appointed to form the or ganization and to supervise its labors: Mrs. Ethel K. Mertz, chairman; Miss Martha T. Fulton, Mrs. Hanson, Sister Meinrod, Mrs. Geltz, Gilbert Reeder, treasurer. Mr. Reeder was succeeded by Miss Ruth Whipps after he entered military service. No com plete history of the great war can ever be written which does not record the achievements of the school children of Richland County, who responded so will ingly to the call for service under the banner of the Red Cross. The service of the members of the Junior Red Cross has taken many forms. It has sometimes Mrs. Ethel K. Mertz "begun at home" and meant only staying home with baby so that mother could go out and make surgical dressings; or running errands, and doing odd jobs for the Red Cross. For our men in the service they have contributed large numbers of socks, sweaters, fracture pillows, a few knitted blankets, many comfort kits and simple surgical dressings. Fruit pits by the bushel were gathered, later to be burned to charcoal and used in the manufacture of gas masks. Dainty layettes for infants were made, and refugee garments for children collected. No record of production, however, can measure the service of the children in the world war, nor the effect which it may have upon them in later years.

The following schools were enrolled as Junior Red Cross Auxiliaries:

Richland County Press •Ij N gathering photographs for this book, the publishers came in con tact with many modest and unassuming people, who, when asked for a "likeness," quivered, blushed, and shifted uneasily from one : lit rw foot to the other; a few there were who looked indignant, some sus 1 picious, many uneasy, but one and all registered, beneath that su U'I perficial cloak, a look of pleasure—all except the newspaper men. Tactics which would have put Jesse James to the blush, were re

Likewise had the clothier, the baker, the druggist, or any other mer chant been called upon to donate a part of his goods each week for the success of the war, he would have protested vigorously, and protests would have been justified. And yet the newspaper publishers of Richland County, every one of them, were called upon every week that the war lasted, to devote their space to winning the war. They never grumbled. Besides their sacrifices in "stock in trade," they gave generously to all of the charities and were ioo per cent boosters for every war activity in their community. And yet we had to ask them five times ere they would donate a picture. Photographs of the "wartime" editors of the Wahpeton Times and Lidger wood Broadaxe were not obtainable, because of changes in the management toward the close of the war period.

Certificates of Indebtedness N spite of the fact that millions upon millions of dollars were raised by the government in the various Liberty Loan drives, the enor mous expenses incurred in carrying on the war made it necessary to issue short time notes, usually five months, known as "certificates of indebtedness" which served to keep "money in the coffers" at all times. 'These notes were handled altogether by the banks and, as usual, Richland County did more than her share. Mr. E. T. Martin of Galchutt served as county chairman of this department of war finance and disposed of each issue in turn by asking each bank to take its share, in proportion to its resources. Just how large this burden was, can m be appreciated by a glance at the ledger. From December 5, 1917, until May, 1919, the Banks of Richland County, beside aiding very materially in the Lib erty Loan, bought $2,073,800.00 worth of United States Certificates of Indebted ness.

Civilian Relief NE department of the American Red Cross, which has worked wonders as an agent of comfort and good cheer, and yet has remained almost obscure to the public eye, is the Bureau of Civilian Relief. Serving as a medium between the Military and the Civilian groups, they acted as cushions which dead ened the harsh jar of misunderstanding and alleviated much of the worry and anxiety among both soldiers and civilians by making out of themselves a public information bureau. Their work started when the boys left for camp. Then came the innu merable flow of inquiries from all hands concerning allotments, insurance, Lib erty Bonds, addresses, casualty lists, vocational training and many other things. William F. Eckes of Wahpeton was appointed chairman of the Richland County Bureau, and by. establishing deputies throughout the county he has created an organization which, in more cases than one, has truly been a Godsend to some anxious heart. Following is a list of the names of those people who aided in this work, silent, diligent, thorough, unostentatious all—let us thank them. G. O. Haugen, Wyndmere M. R. Olson, Dwight John A.

PAGE ONE HUNDRED SIXTY-FIVE Fuel Administration

HE fall of 1917 awakened, to a painful intensity, the necessity for stringent economy with the nation's fuel supply. Shortage of labor in the coal fields was a continual threat at the supply, while the de mand was increased by a nation working night and day. To meet the situation efficiently therefore, a Federal Fuel Administrator was appointed. He was assisted by State Fuel Administrators who in turn controlled their territory by appointing Administrators for one or more counties. Hence it was, then, that Mr. W. W. Thomas of Wahpeton was made the "Fire King" of Richland, Sargent and Ransom Counties and for nearly two years Mr. Thomas worked faithfully in the execution of duties, so necessary, and yet so often misunderstood by many people. Beside keeping an accurate check on the amount of fuel consumed in every household, certain regulations restricting street lighting, electric advertis ing and the number of hours that places of business which were heated and light ed by coal could be open, were enforced. Statistics on the amounts of coal saved by these regulations and economies in Richland County are unavailable, but the records show that in the state at large, fully 30,000 tons of anthracite were saved in the winter of 1917-191 8. Generally speaking, Mr. 'Thomas received splendid co-operation from the families in his district. A few, however, who "never could understand," made the work anything but pleasant.

The Girls Drill Team The Girls' Drill Team, conceived in a spirit of fun, under the leadership of W. B. Aspinwall, became proficient in military drill; its members were improved in health; and, having a smooth working, efficient military organization, the drill team was always ready to take part in war work. It co-operated with the Reserves on many occasions. Wahpeton will long remember and be proud of its Girls' Drill Team.

The Reserve Company Before the departure of Company I many felt that a military organization was needed here. Accordingly, at a meeting held at the Armory, a Reserve Company was formed. This company received hard drill by the officers of Com pany I. Later the Reserves elected their own officers and continued the drill. Wahpeton is noted for the number of commissiond and non commissioned offi cers among its service men. The reason—the drill received while in the Reserves prepared them for the jobs. The Reserves also took charge of many war activities. Every departing group of service men received a big send-off. They took charge of Company I property and the Armory, paid the Company's outstanding bills, and were of great service to the city and the nation. Officers—C. E. Lounsbury, Capt., W. B. Aspinwall, 1st. Lt.; John -Cain, 2nd Lt. Originally, W. B. Aspinwall, Capt.; J. P. Olson. 1st Lt.; John .lunge, 2nd Lt. Aspinwall and Olson resigned to enter Training Camp, and Junge entered Breckeridge Home Guard. C. E. Lounsbury was elected Captain and II. W. Rife 1st Lt., and John Cain, 2nd Lt. Rife later resigned, W. B. Aspinwall succeeding him, Olson later became 1st sergeant, secretary and treasurer.

Company "I" Auxiliary

Company I Auxiliary was formed by the women relatives and friends of the men of Company I during the summer of 1917, with the object of helping them in every possible way. Comfort kits were made; other equipment fur nished; social functions given; money raised for the Company fund. When Company I left Wahpeton, the Auxiliary became busier than ever, for the needs were greater than before. And the community was benefitted by having an ener getic organization ready for any call of duty.

Food Administration

Perhaps the most thankless job in the whole list of war work positions was that of Food Administra tor. However, the job was as necessary as it was thankless. W. B. Aspinwall of Wahpeton held the position of county food administrator of Richland •#fcv county. Just as it was of the utmost importance to produce every ounce of food possible, so it was likewise necessary to save every possible ounce. Waste and extravagance had to be eliminated. Wheat, meat, sugar and fats, being the principal items in the list of human foods, had to be used most economically. A federal food administrator was appointed by the president. He in turn named W. B. Aspinwall state food administrators, who likewise divided territory and appointed county administrators. Many regulations were announced governing the consumption of these foods. These regulations were changed from time to time as the exigencies of the situa tion demanded. "Wheatless" and "meatless" days were named, and a part of the duty of the food administrator was to see that on those days no wheat or meat was consumed. The quantity of sugar, flour and meat which one person or family might purchase or have on hand at one time was limited. It was a duty of the administra tor to see that these regulations were complied with. As in every crisis, there were some who would not comply willingly. It was his duty to see that those who would not comply willingly were made to do so against their will, and several heavy penalties were imposed in this county upon violators of the regulations. In order that all the wheat grown might be available, farmers were forbidden to hold their wheat, but had to sell it. They might hold only enough for seed for the following season. Some there were who objected to this ruling, but their efforts to avoid compliance with it were futile, when the same was reported to the food administrator.

The government also exercised certain supervision over prices of food stuffs, and a part of the food administrator's duty was to see that dealers did not raise prices higher than the regulations permitted. And so, while for many months American housewives made bread from barley, rye, corn, oats and rice flour, and made cakes without sugar, drank coffee the same way, and otherwise used the most strict economy, there was never a serious shortage of food, and this coun try was able to export foodstuffs in quantities never before dreamed of. thus did food again help to win the war. The first time the help was in enormous production; the second time, by the most strict economy in consumption. Mr. Aspinwall had a corps of assistants, all volunteers like himself, in the various towns and cities in the county. Their efforts nobly seconded those of their chief, to the everlasting glory of Richland county.

Afterword There are about ioo Richland county men who served in the army or navy whose pictures are not included in this book for no other reason than because the publishers were unable to secure them. No expense was spared in the quest for pictures; but we could not compel a man to have a photograph taken even though we offered to pay all expenses; nor could we compel any man or his friends or relatives to lend us a picture when they did not desire to do so. Some of these omissions are due to negligence on the part of those who always waited until "tomorrow;" some to the fact that the men themselves had left the county and their addresses were not obtainable; some few objected to having their pictures in the book at all; a few felt that their picture in the book would carry an obligation to purchase a copy, and for that reason refused. In addition, there may be some omissions due to our own mistake. For any such, we offer apologies and regrets, with the assurance that it was indeed unintentional. 1 —The Editors. i
