MEDALS AWAIT SERVICE MEN
Wal Ready for Distribution
on Armistice Day.

Nearly 100000 Victory medals
turned out by a lengthy and involved
process of manufacture, now are
awaiting former service men. Thou.
sands of these medals will be pre-
scented 10 veterans on Armistice day
by posts of the American Legion,
which have arranged elaborate cere-
monies in honor of the occasion. The
medal was designed by james Earl
Frazer.
Phases never before met with in
medal production We're met with by
the contractors in the making of the
decorations with their ribbons, battle
clasps and bars, and to handle certain
steps in the process of manufacture
new machines were invented. One of
these was a ribbOn-cutting machine
which turned out 90 pieces a minute
and in the course Of a day did a guam
tity of work equal to the labors of Is
people.
A striking machine with a force of
40 tons a blow was used on the
medals after the disks had been an
nealed following which there came the
application Of Il hydraulic pressure OF
10 pounds. An automatic sand blast
and an alcohol bath also were utilized
before putting the final lacquer on the
medal.
Not only legiOnnaires but many
other ex-seryice men will take part in
the Armistice day celebrations In all
sections of the country and will re-
ceive their medals with formal OBJ
servance Of their significance.
