Keep on boosting.

Wear 7. P. A. button.
From the appearance Of our ex-
changes. there are few other up
starts scattered over the state OF In
diana.
Harvey Gard. now with the Moore
Oil Co.. of Cincinnati, is home for a
short vacation. having come direct
from Asheville. N. C. "ffarve" missed

he regretted very much.

Why can't we have more active press
chairmen? OF the entire twenty-four
posts in Indiana only seven or eight
are maintaining news columns. These
papers, we notice. are very much In
demand by our post and are read with
a great amount of pleasure and inter.
est. 1t is an excellent means of keep.
ing In touch with what other posts
throughout the state are doing and aids
materially to hold our interest in the
T. p. A. organization. So let US have
more of these press men busy. Chair
man Ryan should get out his little stick
-or big stick-as the case may be, and
line up every post in Indiana with a
live chairman of the press committee.
David Sands formerly with Pogue,
Miller & Co., has accepted position
with Hibberd. Srenser, Bartlett &
Co., wholesale hardware. and will re-

Next Saturday night is the regular
monthly meeting, and as this session,
in all probability will be the last un-
til cooler weather, a large attendance
is desired. We expect this meeting to
be real live one, with plenty Of fire
works, and great display OF oratory
is looked for. A few things have hap
pened recently, to which the "knocker'
department has taken exceptions, and
they promise to appeal their case to
the higher tribunal. Don't fail to be
on hand and help make this meeting
the best ever.
The regular meeting OF the board of
directors was held last night. g. A.
Mendenhall was elected by tho board
to succeed ]. H. Thomas. resigned.
One consoling thought-Missouri had
to come to Indiana for her presidential
candidate.
Chairman Tooker OF the arrange
ments COMMITTEES. and Chairman Heg-
ger. of the social committee. have
started a good thing. and now let
everybody push it along. Picnic"
shouted Took and Picnic came the
response from the little German band.
And 1t looks as Il a noise like 1 picnic
was coming from everybody, SO picnic
it must be. This ricnic stunt IL just
the proper thing. and every member Of
the post would be tickled to death to
have chance to get out In the coun-
try for day. OF course, lots Of good
things to eat would would be the or
der, with lots OF genuine Plymouth
Rocks, or some other good brand. as
the main show. With Took" looking
after the chicken aid all the other side
line edibles, Heggsr would be on the
job with I complete line Of amuse-
ments. He might arrange q game OF
ball between the Knockers and the
Boosters" or between the fats and the
anti-fats. or IL that failed, q game be-
tween the Dutch and tho Irish could
not fail to draw at the box once. Other
heavy attractions, such - climbing. q
creased pole. In which Quigg would
shine. or doing q double flop, or
long distance race: in such event Lebo
could be able to snow everybody how
to run some. A new game Of criss-
cross. or double-cfoss. could be tried
with O'Brien leading one side and Heg-
ger the other, with OMeara, IL he
cared to be present. acting a oMcial
referee-rules for this game being ~
vised by Pat himself. Thatcher would
show us how to go out OF one door and
come in another and never miss =
drop. With all these attraction the
day could be wound up with = grand
