Through the kindness of Mr.. Nor

was taken in Mr.. Taylor's large
truck to the County Home, near
Westminster. There were forty-six
who went along, all except four being
children. To say a very pleasant af-
ternoon and one long to be remem-
Lbered was spent il putting 1t just right.
The children, as well as the inmates of
the home looked forward to this
time. Plenty OF candy and flowers
were taken along. After the pro-
gram all were treated to candy and
enjoyed it very much. Tt also did
the legioners good to see how much
it was enjoyed. After spending a
pleasant hour with the ones who
were able to meet us, we wendell our
way to the third story where four
ladies were not able to meet with US
and remembered them also with
i flowers, candy and a song, which
they too enjoyed. All enjoyed our
presence very much and begged us
to come back soon again. Miss Mary
Shellman was present and gave us
some encouragement on the singing
and speaking after which she took
us around and showed us the place.
