AFFAIRS OF THE POST.

NJ
y most successful affairs ev-
w. va: given ss.s y 5 sss { ss 5ss;s
members present, and ev-
cry one seemed 10 enjoy the program.
The address of ex-National President,
Horace c. Starr, on Inland Water
ways" was greatly appreciated. and We
believe that Mr.. Starr delivered one of
best efforts.
The talk given by Perry Freeman
was likewise thoroughly enjoyed.
The excellent lunch done great cred
it to our lunch committee, and shows
distinctly that Marion Shreeve is an
artist" in the capacity of chairman
of that committee.
Z. L. Lebo received the endorsement
Of the Post. as candidate for state pres
ident at the convention to be held at
West Baden in May.
Michael O'Brien's speech placing Mr.
Lebo in nomination was done in Mich
ael'S most clever style. 1t was a gem
in its line and showed the possibilities
Of the clever handling of a good sub
ject.
Post C.'s officers and members, who
SO willingly worked for the success of
the Smoker" feel highly elated at the
appreciation shown by the member
ship.
John B. Hegger, who did the receiy-
ing, acquitted himself in fine style.
The success Of an affair of this kind is
in a large part in the hands of the re-
ception committee, and the way Mr..
Hegger made everybody feel at home,
and acquainted members with each
other, did him credit, and more than
ever showed the post his value as a
worker and prince of good fellows"
Leroy Brown, E. E. Lebo, John Min
Mich, Jim Lewis, Ed. Findlay, Chas
Pierson and other assistants of the
lunch committee chairman showed
they were the right fellows in the right
place.
The regular meeting OF the Post was
held early in the evening. The bust
ness was confined to the nomination of
candidates for the various offices. The
following members were nominated to
be voted on at the regular election on
March 2Sth.

O'Brien, Julian Thomas, C. w. Morgan.
| In presenting the name of E. E. Lee
| DO to the state convention for the next
president of Indiana Division, Post C.
does so, believing they have a candi-
| date worthy of the support of the
| posts of the state. While we feel we
are entitled to consideration at the
hands of the state, on account of our
being "a live member of the DIVISION
that fact alone would not have been
sufficient reason for coming into the
| field with candidate for state honors
at this time, had it not been we felt
we had a man to present who would
be valuable to the division as its pres
ident.
1t is casting no bunch of violets,"
when we say that our candidate is one
Of Post C.'s most popular members. He
is always ready to devote his time and
| work to the interest of the Post, and
never shirks any duty imposed. He
has served three terms as post presi-
| dent, a deserved honor no one else has
| had Elmer Lebo has the support of
every T. P A. in Richmond, and as he
is widely and popularity known over
the state, we feel he will no doubt be
a strong candidate in the convention.
