MILITARY DANCE
ON ARMISTICE DAY

Armlstice Day viii be celebrated In
patriotic style at Penn's Grove, when
the local post OF the American Legion
Will hold it's first annual ball at the
dupont Club.
This will be one OF the biggest social
functions Of the year. and every pa
triotic American who dances will rally
TO the support OF the boys who were In
the service. The American Legion is
q purely patriotic organization, 400 per
cent. American. standing only for 100
per cent. AmericaDism, and Is compos-
ed exclusively OF fx-service men, who
answered the cal1in the world war.
While the DOys will attend the ball
IN their uniforms. this will not be a
strictly military affair. and Il Is hoped
that the people Of Penn's Grove and
Carney's Point will show their pa
triotism and their ability TO enjoy a
good time, by rallying round the boys
on this, their first attempt TO break into
the social life Of the community as an
organization.
In addition TO the dancing there will
be a number Of novelty events. The
boys will play games just as they. play
ed them In the training camps and over
there There will be prize and lucky
number dances, and a touch OF trench
life will pervade the atmosphere when
