Evening Republican, Volume 21, Number 38, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 22 February 1918 — Page 1 Advertisements Column 3 [ADVERTISEMENT]

John Bowie was down from Wheatfield today. John is mighty proud of iris part of Jasper county. It is undoubtedly the most patriotic spot within the confines of the state and we believe with the broad expanse of this great nation. Most of the fellows in that part of the county have volunteered and are now in the service. Those who did not enlist, with a very few exceptions, are ready and anxious to answer to the call for selectmen.
