There is a general tendency Of the

once the change to the better stock
is made the farmers seldom change

LEGION WANTS
ALL FIGHTERS
Importance of Joining Local
Post Pointed Out to Re-
turned Service Men.

Importance to returned service
men of joining the American Legion
is pointed out by the committee in
charge of the membership drive OF
Grand Forks post which is to begin
next Monday.
1t is pointed out that in no other
way 5than. joining the Legion can a
service man SC effectively preserve
the association made precious to him
in the great war, and at the same
time continue to serve the country
with active patriotism. w
If the Legion is t o work effectively
to serve the country, and assist the
returned, fighters, 1t must have a
membership embracing as many as
possible of those eligible.
The Grand Forks post is already
filling an active part in the life of
the community, and with the increase
in membership this activity will
steadily increase.
The formal membership drive will
open next Monday when teams of the
Legion will begin a canvass of all the
business places of Grand Forks.
