CHAPLAIN ROBB COMING
WILL TELL OF IOWA'S PART IN WAR AT ROYAL NEXT THURSDAY
Chaplain Robb, of the 168th Infantry will be in LeMars Thursday,
October 30, and deliver a lecture at the Royal that evening under the
auspices of Wasmer Post, American Legion. Chaplain Robb tells a
thrilling and interesting story of the part the Iowa boys in the 168th
played in the world war. He was with the 168th during all the time it
was in foreign service and served with the regiment on the Champagne
front, the Marne and in Argonne forest. He saw Iowa boys win
everlasting fame when they checked and drove back the best trained
soldiers of the world and buried with his own hands many who paid the
supreme price. Chaplain Robb talks about our own boys as they were seen
by one who shared their hardships and no person who wants the truth
about the campaign in France can
afford to miss his address at the Royal, October 30. Tickets are
50cents.
