Meet to Organize Post

Organizer Sullivan, of the AM

men in reference to organizing a
Post in Gilpin county. An organ

men present. 1t requires fifteen
members to form a Post, and the
meeting was postponed until next

ed that all ex-service men attend.
The impression prevails among
some of the ex-service men that
the American Legion is liable to
military duty, which is not fact.
The sole object of the organiza-

benefit of those who were enlisted
in the World war. 1t is similar

The fact has now come to light
that Denver was a seething mass
of influenza prior to the stock
show but that the matter was kept
as quiet as possible so that the
attendance would not be cut down.
Thus Denver business placed the
lives of thousands of visitors in
jeopardy in order that they would
have the chance to graft off the
stock show guests with their adj
vanced prices on everything.
