Nor are those his only "firsts." He
was the first subscriber to the Farmers
Mutual Telephone Company, first de-

first president OF the Yellow Medicine

AS might be expected of one who
thus broadly sensed his duties as a
citizen, he served with the 18th Min

and in the Philippine insurrection,
having been present at the capture Of
Manila and ten other engagements.
When the world war broke out,
Bowe could not wait for America to
enter, but Joined the French army,
connected with the Second Foreign
Legion, and the 10th and 1881 regi-

and the 1st Regiment, Foreign Legion.
He was never commissioned.
He spent three years In France, and
two years in the trenches. He was
wounded In the attack on Champagne,
October 10, 1915, returned to the front
and was finally invalided home.
One would never guess that this
quiet, unassuming man, as he goes
about his business In this peaceful
Minnesota town, is Legionnaire Bowe,
and you'd never know that on the
horizon blue of his uniform he may
wear croix de guerre and enough
medals to cover the breast of his coat.

TINE Karl Ross post of the Amer
i lean Legion, Stockton, Cal. claims
Mary Pickford as its ''godmother," and
the little motion picture star does not
seem inclined to dispute the claim,
having recently addressed very moth
erly letter to her boys whom she ad-
dressed as godsons.
This post included the Battery G men
of the 143d Field Artillery, OF which
little Mary was godmOther.
"Our Mary was an ideal godmother,"
said Tod Clawdsley. editor of the San
Joaquin Legion. "She did thousand
and one nice things for our regiment.
She autographed 1000 smileage books
and gave them to us; sent every SOL
der a sweater; sent US thousands Of
cigarettes at Camp Kearney and had
10000 of them waiting for us at Camp
Merritt when we returned from
France. She provided us with auto
busses to return from far out in the
country to a dance at Los Angeles,
and she did q lot of other splendid
things, including giving our regimental
standard.
"Mary was honored colonel of the
143d Field Artillery. We have been
told that no other in the U. S. ever
had the privilege of formally inspect
ing a regiment of American troops ex-
cept visiting royalty-no other woman,
that is.
Charlevoix county herald. (East Jordan, Mich.) 189?-1953, 1920-05-21

Camp Kearney to Los Angeles, Mary
met US at the city gates dressed in a
full colone's uniform and led us
through the city. That night she led
the grand march at the big Shrine Au-
ditorium military ball.
"Our regiment, every man of the
1000, 'chipped in to buy her a beau
tiful loving cup when she visited us at
Camp Kearney. So you can see that
the little film star was ace high with
the boys. Incidentally, / can tell you
that she is mighty sweet little lady
to talk to-unaffected and pleasing.
"The American Legion is very ac-
tive in California just now. We have
$4,000 members. The local post put on
a huge carnival-circus recently. For
ty-eight posts of the San Joaquin Val
ley met and perfected valley athletic
association to handle baseball, boxing,
swimming, etc.
"Our post gave $1,000 to the Stock
ton Advertising club last month to aid
In bringing the Pacific Coast Advertis-
ing clubs here, in convention. This
sort of action on the part Of the Legion
has brought out reciprocal support
from organizations. Our post is aid
ing in the Missions Restoration cam
paign, and takes part in every move
ment for civic betterment."
So 1t is quite evident Little Mary"

Day for lntrospection.

Americans could not these days do
better than commune with their own
past and make the acquaintance of
the nations heroes. The memory of
the boy who died at Shiloh, or at
Chateau Thierry Is north more to the
nation than all tie teaching of all the
cubist social reformers. For those
boys did something, set an example.
and built their lives into the life of
the country. Unknown their names
may be, but they are immortal, and
their, sacrifice is part Of the inherit
ance Of every American, and should
be precious. We found America I'm
the environments and on the battlefield.
and not in dirty Bohemia. Surely.
Memorial day will carry some such
message as this to every loyal heart
and every clear-thinking mind. It
ought to be reverently observed, with
a grateful sense of Gods mercies to
this land which has meant, and still
means, so much to the world. thank

And the room seemed filled with whis-
