Born in a bOx-caT on the way to the
battlefields of Poland last fall, and
with its membership today sadly de-
pieted by casualties, Kosciusko post
of the American Legion, formed out
of the American aviators who COM
pose the famous KosciuskO squadron,
is regarded a the s%trangest and most
adventurous of the $500 units of the
veterans organization.

the fate of the Polish capital hung in
doubt the L~egionnaires of the Kosci-
uSke squadron We're battling night and
day against the advancing waves of
the bolsheviki. When the tide of bat
tie turned and the reds retreated the
machine gun fire from the planes Of
the Americans went far to turf their
retreat into a rout.
The men of KosciuSkO post are
hardened veterans. A year ago they
signed up for service with the Polish

the Germans in the World war. Sent

LEGION AND LABOR QUESTION
Position Of National Body, Adopted at
Cleveland Meeting, Made Clear
in Bulletin.

A clear and well-defined exposition
of the official attitude of the American
Legion toward organized labor is con-
tained in a bulletin sent out by ma
tional headquarters of the Legion in
Indianapolis, setting forth the state
ment On the question issued by Past
National Commander D'Olier, which
IA adopted by the national conven-
ton as the Legion's platform in indus
trial difficulties. The statement fol-
lows:
1.-THE attitude of the Legion toward
organized labor is the same as its at
titude toward all groups of American
citizens who are interested in a square
deal for all in the maintenance of law
and order, and the protection Of the
institutions handed down to us by our
forefathers. In any controversy be-
tween capital and labor, the interest
of the American Legion is confined to
that of the maintenance Of law and
order and, without taking part on
either side. in case a situation should

Good Year for Violets,

Sweet peas have been forced for the
Christmas market only for many years
past. They must be started blooming
before the cold weather begins. Then
they will bloom all winter. Daffodils
do not get in until February, but al
most all the rest of the spring flowers,
hyacinths, narcissuses, bavardia, and
SO IN, are on the Christmas counters.
Easter lilies, too, though rather cold
and white for Christmas, are sold. vi
Diets, are fine this winter, deeply,
darkly, beautifully blue. Some mi
%gnOnette nov zones in enormous
sprays. There are carnations but the
bright red Christmas carnation is the
%favorite. Holly comes from the hills
of Maryland and the south. The wild
holly supplies the market and there
has eve seemed to be any percepti-
BILE diminution of the supply. Great
quantities Of it are purchased by all
sorts Of dealers, who decorate their
stores with it and send out a sprig at
tached to every Christmas parcel.

BY the time that the salad course
arrives at the Christmas dinner all
that surround the festive board are
apt to be warm. 1t will be refreshing
to see the salad come to the table in
a block of ice. Smooth the ice square
with a hot fiat iron and make a cavity
in the center with the same utensil.
Border with crisp lettuce and sprigs

Funny Christmas Habit.

There is not a drug store, cigar shop
or barrOOm in the larger cities which
has not been made the storage room
for Christmas presents bought before
the rush sets in. The strange part Of
it is that every man who utiliZes the
friendship of his favorite place round
the corner thinks he Is the only one
who thought Of the plan. Realizing
that the stores will be crowded, many
far-sighted heads of families bought
their presents a week in advance, and
then, fearing the nature of the mystic
riOus package would be discovered at
device Of making q cache in some re-
sort near home.

ASKS FOR MILITARY ESCORTS
Philadelphia County Committee Ap-
peais to President Wilson to
Provide Firing Squads.

Following advices from the adju-
tant general of the army to the effect
that it Is impracticable for the War
priation for transportation expenses,
to provide military escorts for the
burial at Philadelphia of soldier dead
whose bodies are being returned from
overseas, the Philadelphia county COM
mittee Of the Legion has appealed to
President Wilson to provide at least
two firing squads for this purpose
from Camp Dix or through the Frank
ford arsenal, at Philadelphia.
"The American Legion representa-
tives," the letter reads, were not sat
istied with the excuse offered by the
adjutant general Of the army for re-
fusing to assist in meeting this emer-
gency. The bodies of soldier dead of
the A. f. F. are being returned to
Philadelphia daily, and as many as
five requests a day are being received
by the American Legion. The Legion,
through it's representatives in the
county organization, took the position
that it cannot avoid it's responsibility
to honor these men who gave their
lives for their country.
"The United States army Is now re-
cruited to a strength Of 100000. 1t
was the unanimous opinion among the
Legion representatives Of the 76 posts
in this county, that as commander in
chief Of the United States army, you
might consider 1t a privilege to assign
to Philadelphia 16 men who might
serve as military escorts, thus assist
ing the American Legion in perform
Ing a paramount patriotic duty"
The letter was signed by Roman G.

BOOKS ONES BEST FRIENDS
Assertion Made That In the lmagina-
ton Of Great Writers Complete
Happiness Is Found.

When once the love of books has
come into n mans life he can never
be lonely, he can never be bored, he
oan never lose his interest In life, he
can never be quite unhappy. Books
are the friends that never fail, and the
men and women that only live In books
are the best and the most real friends
If all.
If | we're to set down the names of
he 20 friends who mean most to me, i
should find that more than one-half OF
them lived In the novels of Dickens
and Thackeray, Dumas and Daudet,
Wells and Hardy and Meredith.
The happy life is not spent altogeth-
er In the world Of streets and shops
and offices. A large part of 1t must be
lived in the world Of imagination. And
living with the imagination Of great
writer's we. too. learn to dream, and
the happiest homes in the world are
the castles in the air that we build for
ourselves. They are, indeed, the only
homes the foundations Of which are
unshakable rocks.-Sidney Dark, ii

sas. Holds Rubber Supremacy.

Until ten years ago rubber meant
rubber from Brazil. Today BraziPs
supremacy is gone. In less than n
decade the far east has jumped to the
front and now is producing nine-tenths
OF the rubber of the world. In the
late sixties, just when the first expert
ments with the automobile were under
way, an EnglIshman, Fl. A. Wickham,
who had spent much time In Brazil,
conceived the idea that rubber plants
could be grown on plantations.
Securing a commission from the In
dia government he boxed up thousands
Of seeds. chartered a derelict ship up
the Amazon, and started for India.
The first trees grew at Heneratgoda
In 1881, and that same year the first
experiments in tapping began.

,ror and steel Work In India.

India has already laid the basis of
steel industry in the establishment OF
two important and successful iron and
steel works; namely, the Bengal Iron
and Steel works at Kulti. which turns
out 100000 tons of pig iron per month,
and the Tata Iron and Steel works at
Sakchi, about 155 miles from Calcutta,
which has monthly production of
about 10000 tons. Most of this pig
iron Is converted into steel, which Is
largely used locally In the production
of rails and the smaller structural
shapes, but even with the additional
furnaces now under construction,
which in the case OF the Tata works
will more than triple its previous ca
paclty, not more than a fraction OF
India's needs of iron and steel will be
supplied from these two works.

In this connection the inhabitants Of

occurrence takes place IN Samoa once
year for period of AZ hours. To-
ward the end of October, a dense
mass OF sea worms appears on the sur

These forms. which are of various

as they only stay on the surface of the

1t is in connection with these weird
worms that the SamOans' superstition
arose. The story is that Tangaloa, the
chief god OF the Samoans, sent his
daughter, Turf, down to earth TO
search for a home. In all the waste of
water there was only a bare rock, and
she went and told her Father Of the
shortage Of dwelling accommodation.
He thereupon gave her wild vine to
plant on the rock which she had found,
and 1t flourished for time, then died.
Turf was vexed to think the vine
would not thrive, but her father or

leaves had turned to worms, and that,
