ARMY AND NAVY
UNION GROWS
Six More Members Added to
Local Garrison at Last Nights
Meeting

Six new members were added to
the rapidly growing local garrison of
the Army and Navy Union at the
Initiation exercises held in Wood
mems Hall, Hobart street, last night.
The local organization is known as
Thomas F. Toolin Garrison No. 81.
The six men who were initiated
are John O'Hara, Sidney Dell, Will
liam Kilmurray, Charles Cannata.
Philip Ronito and Albert Hansen.
1t was learned from headquarters
commander for New Jersey, A. S. Van
,Pelt, of Railway, that the state con-
vention of all Of the garrisons of New
Jersey will be held in this city August
16.
According to reports made by menu
bers of the local garrison, the post
here now has about 100 members and
is expanding rapidly. 1t was formed
in 1883 at Cincinnati, o., for the pur-
pose of continuing the work of the
G. A. R. when the veterans of the
Civil War were no longer capable or
taking an active work in their organi-
zation. 1t is strictly non-partlsan
and non-political and its single aim IS
to look after the welfare OF the SOL
diers, sailors and marines.
Commander John J. Clarke In talk
ing to the new members last night
said: 1.-The only qualification for ad-
mission to our Union is an honorable
discharge from some branch of the
army, navy or marines. The Union
will admit all men who have served
under the Stars and Stripes no matter
where or under what conditions. 1t
is not a soldiers fault If during the
entire period of his enlistment there
are no wars In which he can win med
ais for bravery. There are approx
mately 100 members in the Thomas +.
Toolin Garrison No. 81 and we are
continually receiving applications.
I'VE want it made clear that we are
Imposing none of the present organi-
zations but l believe that this is the
only body to include all service men
from the army, navy or marines.
