The second annual convention Of
the Oklahoma department of the Am
eric4n Legion will be held at Tulsa
September 6 and T. 1920 The meet
ing will bring together probably one
thousand 10 fifteen hundred ex-serv
ice men and many former buddies
will have an opportunity to talk over
their experiences in the army and
navy.
Outside Of the regular business ses-
sions Of the convention, considerable
entertainment will be provided so that
there will not be a dull moment dur
ing the stay in Tulsa.
There is no doubt but that this will
be an extremely important convention
and that momentous decisions will
b. made by the ex-service men Of
Oklahoma on some very important
questions. 1t is known that various
posts are going to bring up questions
upon which there is considerable di-
verslty Of opinion among the various
posts throughout the state. This will,
OF course, precipitate 4 general de-
bate on these subjects. The sponsors
and opponents of each measure will
present their arguments in full so
that the delegates will have complete
information on every important ques-
ton before casting their votes.
II is understood that the Oklahoma
City post is going 10 try to have
the convention go on record as favor

that some of the strongest men in the
legion in Oklahoma are unalterably

tion going into politics this question

division served in Germany as part
of the army of occupation. The di'
vision was made up almost entirely
,of the first contingent Of the select

from Texas and Oklahoma. Nearly
all Of the junior officers Of the dl-
vision were made up OF men who
secured their commissions at the tlrst

active service on the fields of France,
suffered over 5000 casualties and
many lad from Texas and Oklahoma
who went out with the division, now
