Miss Wardall was there this summer, and the University granted her a leave of absence for one semester to continue her duties, but i nthe face of emergency situation here she postponed her departure to superintend the cooking for men in isolation. Results of Miss Wardall's work will be watched with interest as this is the first bureau of the kind to be established in a bank. It will be her duty to give advice to the public as to the proper expenditure of income. The Society for Savings is an interesting institution in itself. The capital funds were, in the main, deposits left unclaimed by soldiers who died in the civil war. Myron T. Herrick, former governor of Ohio, and ambassador to France, was for years its head executive officer. FLU HITS THE IOWAN The older members of Daily Iowan family have the "flue". Both the mechanical and editorial forces are working under difficulties this week. F. B. Thayer, professor of journalism, has been confined to his home with influenza since Thursday. Rowena Wellman, managing editor, and Beth Wellman, night editor on Mondays are ill and not able to attend to their duties at the Iowan office. Romola Latchem also is ill and cannot manage the business department as usual. The linotype operator, the man sets ads, and the pressman are also infected fith the siege and are vacationing in bed. The rest of the depleted force is working to the best of its ability to keep The Iowan up to standard. [2nd column] SOLDIERS' LETTERS The following is an excerppt from a letter from Profesor Sh. H. Bush of the Marocaine Division in France. September 27, 1918 "I got a brass shell case, not the usual thing, but a monster over a foot across, in a hellish ravine hear the Chemin des Dames. The place when we arrived, following up the troops, was all gas but a stiff wind and rain made it possible. It had in it a thousand and more shell holes, wrecked trees, smashed German cannon of all sizes, shells, dead Germans--all sorts of things if you were curious-minded. It was not a good place to be, but I brought up a big shell. We walked over the battle field above and saw all sorts of interesting souvenirs--a fine Mercedes auto with springs for tires, a dead chauffeur, and the Crown Prince monogram shot through with bullets. We took the door with the League monogram. My chum, Ray Coyle, a San Francisco artist, is going to send it to his club at home. One sees sights on a recent battle-field that one would like to forget. They are hideous, blasted, hellish places. You see staring eyes that will not fade out of your memory. After a few days if the army advances the field is cleaned up, but just as the fight is on it is all terrible to see. We have seen trenches underground, caves, abris, and pure open-field fighting. The last time it was cave work and trenches. We were in one post which had been taken only a few hours before and it looked it. Our man gave the Boche a terrible beating. One of our famous regiments had 600 men out one day--They brought in 900 Prussian Guards! A bad lot these birds and if it were worth while I could tell more atrocious stories about them. We slept in caves up there for over three weeks without undressing or washing decently. Whenever we tried to sleep outside, the shells or avions made life miserable. One night outside an avion dropped a sort of squirt that I thought would hit my head. After that I slept inside. . . ."
