LEGION LISTS
100 Per CENT
AT FACTORIES
Every Ex-Soldier at Rock Island
PlOW Company and Rock Island
Stove Company Joins.

The Rock Island Pillow company
went over the top 100 per cent for
the American Legion yesterday
when, after a call from the officers
of the legion in charge OF the
membership campaign, every ex-
service man in the employ of the
company signed a membership
card. The number of those who
signed was over fifty.
The same enthusiasm was shown
at the factory of the Rock Island
Stove company, when war veter-
ans also enlisted 100 per cent
strong in the roster of the legion.
The campaign continues to add
names to the list of the legion
membership, and it is thought that
by Saturday evening. when the
drive ends, there will be fully one
thousand registered with the To-
cal post. Because of the success
of the campaign, which was to
have been closed the first of the
week, it was decided TO pro1ong
the time several days.
Special attractions are being ar
ranged for the meeting on Tues
day evening, at which the election
of officers will be made, and some
fine speakers will address the men.

GROTTO PLANS
AUDITORIUM TO
COST $4,000
Report on Coliseum Site VIII be
Made at Business Session on
Friday, Oct. 10.

When the business session is
held preceding the ceremonial OF
Amoo Grotto Friday Oct 10, the
committee on the proposed new
auditorium will be ready to report
on the selection of a site.
1t is understood that the commit
tee has secured options on what is
believed to be a very desirable lOca-
ton for the Grotto coliseum. The
tract in view is said to be handy to
all street car lines and yet suffi-
GENTLY removed from heavily trav-
elled streets so as to permit park
ing of automobiles on the thorough
fares.
The plans of the Grotto call for
a building which will be absolutely
fireproof and will have the very
latest equipment which goes to-
wards making the coliseum pop
ular place for large gatherings. The
material is to be of concrete and
steel and the structure will cost in
the neighborhood of $4,000. A
stage is to be arranged which will
be rs feet wide and so feet deep.
May Take in 800.
The ceremonial next week will be
the last under the present initia-
ton fee and for this reason the
Grotto looks forward to taking in a
large class, possibly 800. Appended
is the program for the day:
p. N. to 6 p. m.-CandidateS
meet at Masonic temple, pay bal
ance on fee.
5 p. m-Short business session
to receive application and elect
candidates.
4 to $50 p. m. Continuous service

ID. m.-Band concert and parade.
S:15 to $50 p. m.-Rituallstic
work in auditorium of temple.
$50 Grand initiatory session

Superintendent Fred w. Rinck of
Federal Employment Office
Does Not Worry, However.

An Associated Press dispatch
from Washington today bore It'd
ings that means Fred W. Rinck,
superintendent Of the federal en-
ployment Office at 1915 Fourth
avenue, is out Of one job and loses
as a result salary of 81 year.
Here's the dispatch:
The United States employ
ment service today notified its
federal directors to close the
state federal employment Of
fees on Oct 10, because of
lack of funds.
But Mr. Rinck is not worrying.
He is superintendent of the Hi
nois free employment bureau and
the federal order does not in any
way affect his services with the
state. The federal service, in cities
where the state bureaus are main
tanned secured the superintendents
TO act as federal representatives in
conjunction with the work with the
state, the government fixing a sal
airy of 81 a year
Stays With State.
Mr.. Rinck, of course, will con-
tinue in the state employ. How
ever, because of the successful
work the local Office accomplished
in the federal service, cooperating
with the war department in finding
employment for returned soldiers.
Mr.. Rinck will not relinquish the
government position without some
regret While the salary was
naturally of no consequence, it was
the opportunity of assisting re-
turned veterans to get jobs that
gave the superintendent a feeling
of great satisfaction in the success
the local office has had.

Bv Miss Pearl Mil

Mr.. President, President, Princi-
pal, Teachers, Fellow Students, Parents and
Friends.
We are about to bid farewell to you,
at this the close of Our Class Day and of
have still few words to say
First, and most important of all, we wish
to express our gratitude to all who have
helped us to attain the goal that we have
reached. These few simple words cannot
fully express our thanks, but we can show
our appreciation by the lives that we live
and by the way in which we use the talents
that we have been developing while at
tending school.
To our President, the General Overseer,
we are thankful that Zion Schools are a
reality; that through his steadfastness and
trust in God, the Zion Educational Insti-
! tutions have been established and guided
successfully through three school years.
We look to our Vice-President, Apostle
Darms, as our true helper. In chapel and
in Bible study, he has taught us not only
the history and words of the Bible, but that
it is indeed "a lamp unto our feet, and a
light unto our path"
w Z OdillIOl IOl SCl Jul L 11lANIPcAA, 4iAoo
Thompson, for her unceasing toll and
earnest efforts to make our school life happy
and prosperous.
We turn to you, our Teachers, and offer
our sincere gratitude for the influence you
have exercised in Our lives. We all have
been uplifted by your lives as Christian
teachers and you have helped us not only
with our lessons but have entered into Our
social activities = the long remembered sun
beams of school life.
For our Parents, we have a deeper feel
ing of gratitude, because only by their per
mission and help have we enjoyed school
life and privileges. They have encouraged
us to press onward and prayed for us when
the path was difficult.
We would encourage you, our Fellow
Students = the leaves that still cling to
the mother tree = to hold fast and absorb
each golden ray of sunshine, that the tree
may grow stronger and more beautiful.
Gods sunshine falls beautifully around
you Without each leaf in place fulfilling
its little mission, the tree could not accom-

plish its noble duty in the Kingdom Of God.
Before long, your turn will come to hutter
from the mother tree; may you have used
each opportunity and prohted by our mis-
takes, so that the tree may be a sturdy one
and spread a blessed influence all around
in fulfilling its motto, GLOW to Pray"
The breezes of time are about to shake
us from the mother tree to which we have
chung through showers and sunshine. Some
times the clouds hung heavy and it seemed
that we would slip away; but often the
skies were blue and the feecy, white clouds
hoated by. Many days were sunny, and
although the gentle winds blew we were
glad to stay and work
There is touch of sadness as we leave
Our mother tree, which has faithfully held
us up to the sunlight, but we have greater
mission before us. Just as the leaves, when
thew Autter to the earth and die, fertil1ze
the soil about them SO that the flowers
may be stronger and more beautiful, SO we,
as we hutter away from our School, II we
die to self. can enrich the little world
about us and help each one with whom
we come in contact to live a nobler hte
The breezes that shake us from the tree
are not too strong. Let us fall into our
places in Zion, to do all we can in building
up Gods Kingdom and in helping those who
have done SO much for us. May we not
blow far away; but if we should may we
all have enriched our little world about
us so that we shall all meet in brighter
and happier union: brighter and happier
because there will be no parting and we

The First Grade

The child Of six, now advanced from the
kindergarten, enters grade work in the
Junior Department with wealth of knowl-
edge of the world around him, gained by
close observation through sight, sound and
touch. He is ready for the formal work of
reading, but this is not taught in the old
fashioned way. The child is drilled through
object lessons and blackboard work, and in
this way, while his interest is held, he I'm
consciously learns to read.
One Of the First Grade teachers has out
lined the method as follows:
Reading is the expression Of ideas. We
must keep in mind the fact that there are two
sides in the mastery Of reading-the thought
side and the technical.
"The teacher uses the blackboard and

The Fourth Grade

In this grade, arithmetic, spelling, writ
ing, reading, geography, language, nature
study, right living, music and art are among
the subjects taught.
The Bible, as elsewhere in Zion Schools,
comes first. The children must be able to
repeat and write from memory four entire
chapters of the Bible; also, many of the
Psalms
In reading, the Bible and geographical
and historical readers are used; also the
Jones reader.
All the elementary parts of arithmetic are
taught, including fractions.
All work is put in books. Each child, dur
ing the year, has made four books: one
containing Bible language; another, geog-
raphy; another, spelling; and the other, art
and language, the two being correlated.
For instance, a rhythmic poem relating to
birds, flowers or child life is illustrated by
the pupil with pictures suitable to the sub
ject.

His message sweet proclaim,
Until He shall call us to His Eternal
Home,
Where day shall never end,
And show us the Kingdom yet to come
And fit us for rulership therein.
He shall speak Peace to all nations,
This Ruler Supreme and Divine,
Exalting the valleys of Truth long sunk
down
Between the high mountains of time.
Then Satan shall have no dominion,
And with him shall ever be bound
His unjust and wicked pretenders,
And his rulership here will decline.
For now his work is like mountains,
Towering majestic and high;
But right shall yet reign, and the hills be
a plain,
For Gods Truth = it never can die.
Then shall the worlds last long winter,
Cold and bleak, slip quickly away,
And the earth take again her scrip and staff
In glorious millennial day.
Glad in the blessed fulfllment
Of Springtime that God shall disclose.
When the earth hears His voice and the
deserts rejoice
And all nature blooms out like rose.

The Second Grade

In this grade, the regular fundamentals
are taken up, such as reading, writing,
spelling and arithmetic; but aside from this,
free-hand cutting, painting, drawing, music
and other features render the work attrac-
tive and interesting
Extending entirely across one end of the
large room, was cut out panoramic pic
ture, prophetic in character, and which oc-
casioned much comment = the Zion parade
to the Lace Factory for its rededication to
God, an event for which Zion is praying.
At one end of the picture was the Lace
Factory, while on platform in front stood
the General Overseer and number of
other officers. The parade, reaching from
the factory far back into the city, was in
deed imposing.
At the head, rode the Marshal of the Day,
in uniform, on magnificent gray charger );
next came the standard bearers, CARRYING the
National and Zion colors, followed by the
Uniformed Guard Then, in regular order,
marched the Zion Senior Band, the Junior
and Senior White-Robed Choirs, the ROBBED
Officers, the Junior Band and the Junior and
Senior Restoration Hosts.
Carried by the various divisions of the
Restoration Host were appropriate banners !;
for instance the first read, "In the Begin
ming God;;" the last, God Giveth Us the
Victory"
The hundreds of figures comprising the
parade had all been drawn and cut out and
their uniforms carefully painted by the chill
dren, many of them whose papas were mem
bers of the Guard or Band, taking great
pains to make them look just right For
instance, the drum majors little girl had
spent hours in costuming her father so that

Fine Service Held at La Grange
&C. B. W.

A splendid service was held by the
General Overseer on last Lords Day even
ing at Lagrange, Illinois, following the SER
vice in the afternoon in Central Zion Tab
ernacle, Chicago.
The hall was nicely filled with an intel
ligent audience.
The General Overseer delivered very
comprehensive address replete with facts
and prophetic interpretations. The great
events of the world were reviewed, show
ing the way in which prophecy had been
fulfilled to the letter right up to the present
hour, and using these and events transpiring
at the present time to carry conviction that
all the great events foretold in Gods Word
to come to pass in the last days would just
as surely be fulfilled.
The audience, to whom the message
was new, gave the closest and most thought
full attention throughout. The singing of
the semi-chorus evidently was much appre-
ciated.
