Norman l.. Brookes stateo In re-
cent interview given after his return
to Australia that tennis in the United
States was booming and that the play
was far superior to tennis in England
The superiority, he thought, was due
to the public SCHOOLS participation N
the game in the United States, and hs
added that while in Eng:aac he was
unsuccessful in Efforts TO induce the
English public school authorities to in
troduce the game into the public
schools.
The Australians superiority over
the Americans in doubles he attribut
ed to a closer study of the game BY
] the former and better tactics. But In
singles the case was different, owing
to the large population of the United
States from which to draw first-clas!
players. Speaking of the Davis Cur
I he thought that Australia would re-
tain it IN the coming matches with
England beginning January l6 but Il
so the Americans would send down
one of their best teams in 1920 in or
der to win it. 5rookes said that he
expected to play in the forthcoming
Davis Cup matches provided he was
! in good health and in good form.

@%OR you, Mr.. Service Man,
III the American Legion ex-
lists. 1t is the democratic
army of peace, through which
you may express your loyalty to
country in peace time. 1t is the
company in which fellowship of
the camp, trench or ship is per-
petuated. 1t is the agent for
redress of your grievances, if
any you may have; the spokes-
man for your constructive
ideas.
The American Legion is
founded for the betterment of
America and its discharged
service men. 1t is backed by
the great bulk of those men.
Mushroom organizations which
sprang up by dozens have lived
their ephemeral life and died.
The legion, stronger and bet
ter, has survived.
In Pendleton, the American
Legion has made a modest
start. Its membership is as yet
unrepresentative of the men
who went forth to fight for Am
erica. The men now at the
head are temporary officers.
They want a big, representa-
tive membership before effect
ing permanent organization.
That is why they ask you, Mr..
Service Man, to attend the open
meeting tonight.
The American Legion bows
to no demagogue, has no politi-
cal affiliation, serves no class
except the great class embod-
led in the rank and file of the
men who wore the uniforms of
blue, khaki or green. Its aims
and purposes are set forth in
the following preamble:
For God and Country we as
sociate ourselves together for
the following purposes:
To uphold and defend the
constitution of the United
States of America; to maintain
law and order; to foster and
perpetuate 100 per cent Am
ericanism; to preserve the
memories and incidents of our
association in the great war; to
inculcate a sense of individual
obligation to the community,
state and nation; TO combat the
autocracy of both the classes
and the masses to make right
the master Of might; to pro-
mote peace and good will on

STRIKES AND SENTIMENT.

Atf UBLIC sentiment is neces
H sary to the success of &
n strike. In the present
coal strike, public sentiment is
already turning almost unani-
mously against the strikers. 1t
would occasion little surprise
should the miners be early or
dered back to their jobs, with
no ground gained.
There was time when a
strike concerned two classes,
the worker and the producer.
With the coal strike it is differ
ent. The public is the most
concerned in this strike. 1t is
considerably more vital to the
public than almost any strike
of recent years.
Organized labor cannot rea-
sonably be in sympathy with
the coal strike coming at this
time. Its members, in hun
dreds of lines of work, are de-
pendent upon fuel for their
livelihood and for their exist
ence. The workingman in most
lines has no full cellar of coal.
His factory is not protected
against closing down should
the strike carry on. So it is
that in this case, organized la
Dor must consider itself a part
of the great mass, the public.
Should the demands of mi
ners be granted, the effect
would be boomerang, not only |
upon them but upon all the |
people. Higher coal would |
mean increased cost of necessi-
lies of life and higher transpor-
alton rates. The miners might
ierive small benefit, bdt sure
y their brothers in toll would

ion to face, their cause must
