LEGION LOCALS.
News Notes from Frank e. Whitmore
Post of Ellsworth.
Contributed.


At the regular meeting of Frank
II. Whitmore post, A. L., Monday
evening, several important questions
were voted upon. Among the most
important was the national bonus.
National headquarters is advocating
$50 per month for every man in the
service, and has sent out posters to
the different posts all over the coun-
try for their separate vote on the
matter. The post here unanimously
voted in favor of the $50 per month
bill, and committee was appointed
to take it up with our representative
from this district Mr.. Peters.
Another question was the organ
ization of ladies' auxiliary, to be
composed of mothers, wives and sis
tiers of ex-service men, and to be to
the Legion what the relief corps is to
the G. A. r. An expression from the
ladies would be welcomed
There was a large attendance at
the meeting, and everyone seemed
much interested. The post is stead
lily gaining in membership, six new
members signing up Monday evening
harry Davis, Andrew H. Turner,
Colin Jordan, Arthur Fernald, Rob-
ert Haynes and Robert p. King, max
ing about sixty members in all. If
all the ex-service men in town would
JON, the membership would soon
jump over the hundred mark. When
the Legion puts the bonus bill
through Congress, all ex-service men
will be benefited by it,. They ought
to be with us now to help.
The next meeting will be held the
first Tuesday in April
