Concerning swankIno.

"Swank" Is bombastic behavior or
talk accompanied by ostentatiousness
of manner. A "swanker" is preten'
tious person who strives to Impress
others that he is superior to Others or
something different from what he
really is. The word "swank" is not
modern term; It dates back to the
early years Of the last century and
has been found In Thomas Bachelors
"Orthoepical Analysis of the English
Language" as occurring In Bedford
shire dialect. The book was publish

Two couples of Mexicans
were very happy to be acquit-
ted by Justice of the Peace
Busch in court Monday night
when they were tried upon the
charge of adultery. Elias Tru-
jillo and Tonito Trujillo (no
connection) had been arrested
at the instance of the woman's
husband, Jose, the evidence
showing that the two were oc-
cupying the same bed at the
Brown Palace" His honor
held that the evidence was in
sufficient for him to find the
parties guilty of felonious in
tent or with malice afore-
thought and he concurred with
Attorney Veerkamp that the
testimony did not amount to a
"scintilla of evidence" Ac-
cordingly, the two were dis
missed together with others
against whom the same charg-
es with different settings had
been brought.
Just now, the prosecuting
attorney and the chief of po-
lice are pondering what the
circumstances must be in such
cases which would provide ev.

MONTE VISTA CHAPTER OF
AMERICAN LEGION FORMING
AMERICAN SPIRIT MANIFEST.

The charter for the Monte
Vista chapter Of the American
Legion has been granted.
A meeting for organization
and election Of officers has
been called at the Town hall at
1880 Tuesday evening. Decem-
Der 30th, and all ex-service
men should be present so that
the Legion may be launched
here with pep and harmony.
A report must be sent to state
headquarters by January 6th.
The spirit Of the American
Legion - interpreted by Will
liam Howard Taft is admirably
expressed ~ follows:
The future Of this country
is bound up in the character
and political and social ideals
of it, young men. They were
tried In this war and not found
wanting. The fears that their
strength had been sapped by
commercialism and love Of lux
ury were proved unfounded by
their deeds. Their course not
only thrilled us in our national
pride and our love Of martial
glory, but It gave to US, in our
more deliberative moments, a
satisfying confidence that the
best American traditions of
government and society still
lived in the hearts and minds
Of our youth. To give the force
Of union and the strength of
concentrated expression to the
high ideal Of Americanism
which our boys in khaki and
our sailors in blue manifested,
the American Legion was
formed. It aims to include in
It's membership all those who
served either in the army or
the navy during the great war.
It would be hard to overes-
innate the value of the Legion
to the country If its energies
are rightly directed and it re-
strains itself from tendencies
which experience in other as
sociations have shown to be its
danger. It may properly guide
the grateful action of Congress
and State Legislatures to the
assistance Of its worthy men,
bers who because Of their SER
vice In the war need assistance.
But it should set its face stern
ly against anything which may
seem to be an organized raid
upon the treasury of the Uni.
ted States, or Of the individual
states. and use every care. to
avoid the invidious charge that
It's members only saved the
country to sack it. 1t should
see that It be not made the po-
ntlcal instrument OF any men,
Der or group Of members in the
organization. It should keep
Its motives pure and sweet and
clean Of any selfish or greedy
purpose. So doing, when the
cause Of Americanism is at
stake, when anarchy and Boil
shevism shake their CORY locks,
when ungrateful aliens or citi-
zens Of alien origin aim at de-
stroyin1 our institutions and
the public order, the Legion
will prove a mighty bulwark
against every assault upon
American life, liberty and pro-
perty by the wild fools, crazy
theorists, plunderers and mur-
derers among US who would
exalt and follow the TEACHINGS
OF Lenine and Trotsky. The
Legion will stabilize our insti-
tutions that have made for our
happiness in the past and given
