FOREWORD
Because of the magnificent response of the people of Whitman County to the call by the United States government for assistance in car- rying on to a successful conclusion of the World War, it seemed a duty to make a permanent record of their unselfish acts. With that thought in mind the Whitman County Service Record came into being.
It has been the earnest endeavor of the pub- lisher to make this record as complete as pos- sible under the many trying conditions. The extreme size of the county made it difficult of access at all times, and the indifference of a few persons precluded the hope of making it as complete as was first expected. A contributing factor to this condition was that a large number of service men were of a more or less transient na- ture. Many had been residents of the county but a very short time before entering the service, and failed to return upon their discharge. Therefore it was impossible to trace them and secure the necessary photographs and service records.
It was impossible to picture the Red Cross so- ciety officers as befitted them. Not a few of the ladies were reluctant to allow their photographs and records of service to be used, and in many instances complete records of the activities of the many auxiliaries have not been available, due to the inability to record all matters during the stress of war times. However, many of these noble women have responded to the call and are shown in this volume.
The matter of securing photographs of the men who made the supreme sacrifice has been one of great concern. In a few instances photographs were not available, none having been extant, and in others those existing were of the poorest char- acter possible.
In using narratives of the experiences of men from Whitman County, there has been expended every effort to secure as many as were available and to not overlook any one. However, owing to the large number of men in service, it was impos- sible to interview each one, so no doubt there
were many items of great merit that did not come to the notice of the publisher, consequently are not incorporated in this volume.
During the many months of time expended in compiling this volume the heartiest co-operation was given by the people of Whitman County. Among those who have co-operated to the fullest extent might be mentioned the several photog- raphers of the county: E. E. Kennell of Colfax, Ralph Cline and J. R. Stephenson of Pullman, G. B. Joslin of Palouse, C. W. Klepfer of Oakesdale, and John Langbehn of Tekoa. Each rendered a most valuable service to the people of the county who were interested in making a permanent war record and to the publisher, by his great willing- ness to make photographs of service men and of those engaged in the various branches of home activities.
The many courtesies extended the publisher by the press of Whitman County aided materially in the work.
The ladies of the Red Cross auxiliaries are to be commended for the interest evinced in the work and for the valuable assistance rendered.
The chairmen of the various drives and cam- paigns in the county have been of great assist- ance in furnishing statistics concerning the county's participation in the campaigns of giving, all of which will be of interest, not only to the present generation, but of those yet to come.
To the men who responded to the call to the colors; to the many men who were unable to go and remained at home and gave of their every ef- fort and of their finances; to the noble women of the Red Cross Society who made such sacrifices that the men at the front and in the camps might be as comfortable as possible, and to the loyal citizens of the county in general who backed up the fighters at the front with their money, their efforts in food conservation and their moral sup- port, this volume is respectfully submitted.

In Flanders Fields
By Lieut. Col. John D. McRea
[Written during the second battle of Ypres, April, 1915. the author, Dr. John D. McRea, of Montreal, Canada, was killed on duty in Flanders, January 28, 1918].
In Flander's fields the poppies blow Between the crosses, row ou rou, That mark our place; and in the sky The larks, still bravely singing, fly, Scarce heard amidst the guus below. We are the dead. Short days ago We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow, Loved and were loved, and now we lie In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe! To you from falling hands we throw The torch. Be yours to hold it high! If ye break faith with us who die We shall not sleep, though poppies grow In Flanders fields.

[Written after the death of Lieut. Col. McRae, anthor of "In Flander's Fields," and printed in the New York Evening Post].
Rest ye in peace, ye Flanders dead. The fight that ye so bravely led We're taken up. And we will keep True faith with you who lie asleep With cach a cross to mark his bed, And poppies blowing overhead, Where once his own life blood ran red. So let your rest be sweet and deep In Flanders fields.
Fear not that ye have died for naught. The torch ye threw to us we caught. Ten million hands will hold it high, And Freedom's light shall never die! We've learned the lesson that ye taught In Flanders fields.
