French government said he "volun-
teered always for the most dangerous
missions and the most perilous posts"
and the Serbian medal was bestowed
for distinguished and brilliant con-
duct under fire."
Bowe has written of his thrilling
experiences of two years in the thick
of the fight In his book Soldiers of
the Legion"
Looking back to my life over there
now" said Bowe, sit was a busy, en-
tertaining. exciting time while 1t last
ed. But the comrades are all dead
or scattered-the glory. the romance
is gOne-it hardly seems natural or
possible. more like a dream or night
mare. The suffering and the exertion
overshadow the few short hours of
furlough in Paris or London.
"We couldn't afford to lose" he said.
"The price paid was terrific, but It
was worth It. provided we can keep
the advantages gained. One thing that
gets my goat is the self-complacency
of those people here at home-they
have no conception of what is or has
been going on in Europe. and don't
seem to realize that we are just as
vitality interested in world problems as
the people of Europe.
1--WE see too many politicians in Of
fee standing idly by while the re-
sources of the country are being
wasted. We see two groups at Wash
ington sparring for an issue for the
next election, evidently trying to lose
the advantages the soldiers gained.
But I have an unlimited faith that we
shall square ourselves to meet the
new day.
"And the American Legion Is GO
ing TO have no small part In squaring
the ship of state for the new day."
The Madison journal. (Tallulah, Madison Parish, La.) 1888-current, 1920-05-01

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, l can tell you
that she is a mighty sweet little lady
to talk to-unaffected and pleasing.
''The American Legion is very ac-
tive in California just now. We have
5000 members. The local post put on
a huge carnival-circus recently. For
ty-eight posts of the San Joaquin Val
ley met and perfected a 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

So it is quite evident Little Mary"
has just cause to be proud of her
"godSons."
