PERSONETTE
BY NIksAH

Colonel R. c. Cholmeley-Jones di- rector of the War Risk Insurance bureau is a born organizer, and his organizing genius has always been turned into welfare channels rather than used for Ais private benefit At the tender age of nineteen he was one of the most eloquent insurance agents in Manhattan, making as much as one hundred dollars a week by his inn passioned appeals. But he was not satisfied merely to fill his own pockets. so he originated the Glider Weekly In- come Policy for people of small means, paying seventy-five dollars at death and a weekly income for a year, and, (most marvellous plan for an insurance agent to further.), emitting the insur- ance agents commission. One of the greatest of his youthful triumpns was thirty-five dollar funeral, including casket, hearse, carriage, plot of ground and a bunch of flowers.
 In spite of his early preoccupation with the mortality of man, Colonel Cholmeley-Jone has anything but a funeral aspect. He is tall, dark and exceedingly plea sant looking man of surprising youthfulness considering his achievements During the war his or ganizing ability has been of great service to the government. He organ ized the sale of second Liberty Loan bonds to the army. disposing of eighty nine million dollars worth of the same. He reorganized the work of the re- cruiting committee offNew York. Then he went to France to assist in creating the A. E. F. War Risk section. He was soon put in charge of this section and cited by General Pershing for meritor- ious service in connection with it. And now as director of the whole War RISK Insurance bureau, his organizing pow CTS have unlimited opportunities of ex- ercise.
 Colonel Cholme1eyJon is glutton for work. He often stays in his office until midnight. sometimes as late as three in the morning. Recently when he was confined to his room with a severe cold he sent for his secretary

American Legion
 Nesos

Today is Christmas. To everyone this day means more than perhaps any other universal holiday. And to the men of the American Legion thiS~day holds more than the usual amountNof the festal spirit than perhaps it holds for others.
 year ago today there were more than two million men in France and Germany, and many thousands more in Russia But this year at the holiday sime almost every man is home from Inc turmoil of strife and labor on for ,ign soil. That in itself is something 70 be taken with thanks and rejoicing
 But the men are not the only ones to rejoice at the good fortune of being the land for which they fought, for the wives, mothers and sweethearts of these men are perhaps even> more grateful to the kind Providence that guided their loved ones out of the strife and back into the ways of peace.
 With these loved ones the American Legion raises its head in thankful prayer to Him whose birth we today celebrate And with the loved ones who today are saddened by the vacant chair we extend our hands of brother hood and fellowship and bid them be of good cheer. for theirs is the glory of accruing to those who made the supreme sacrifice that this beloved land of ours might not suffer the foot of the WET mad man of Europe
 It is a time of good fellowship and love and peace, and with the heart of each true American beating out it's Christmas melody we of the American Legion raise our hearts in supplication 10 Him on high for strength to carry ,n the work of reconstruction through put the coming year that we may have he blessing of a greater country and a greater manhood and womanhood when the next C. .ristmas day dawns

THE CORN COB PIPE

History moves in cycles. So the corn cob pipe. It's coming back to pop ularity. One finds it on the street, in the workshop. behind the polished doors of the bank directors rooms. It is an old friend, returning in it's old dress
 The reason? Just because. perhaps. Increased--inflated prices of cigars some charge-have driven thousands of cigar smokers back to the pipe. And pipe smokers know that there is none so sweet as the Missouri meerschaum.
 It, for decades, has been the fisher mans standby, and the hunters and the outdoorman's in general The briar, the meerschaum, and pipes of various clays and woods have their of Mark Twains favorite bowls. load her up to the top, and pull for the shore
 The corn cob pipe is cheap in price. but is worthy potentate's pocket when it comes to solid comfort. Watch the corn cob pipes go by.
