A couple of hours were spent in hearing the program, when Captain Willis dismissed the audience so that they might have an opportunity to see a war tank that was being paraded through the streets. The tank was one that had been used in the Victory loan drive in Wyoming, and was being shipped back to Kansas City on a fiat car. Chairman Spanogle was apprised by telegram of its coming, and was told that the driver of the tank could not be present, but the people were invited to view it on the car. This didn't suit the soldier boys, so they charged the tank and soon had the beast at their mercy. It was hauled by willing hands from its resting place on the car. the engine was started up, the tank was driven through the streets and the machine guns were turned loose with blank catridges to give the people an idea of what tank warfare was at the battle front. The tank had seen considerable service at the battle front in France, and had many dents in it from hard nosed bullets that had been used in vain by

the ones whom it had attacked. It was painted in various colors, as a camouflage, and was one of the most interesting things of the day. Mark Spanogle, district chairman of the Victory loan organization, mounted it and made a short speech in which he urged the people to take the loan over the top as the tank had gone over the top so many times.
