The American Legion.

The American Legion is an organi-
cation of the service men, by the SER
vice men, for the service men. 1t is
purely an American organization and
is national in it's scope. Legion posts
may be found in every town, city and
hamlet throughout the United States.
Though the American Legion is in
it's infancy, we can be proud that we
already have about two million MEM
bers. Posts more fortunately situated
than ours have large percentages In
their ranks.
The motto which we are striving
for is a 1902 membership.
On November IL, 1919, post OF the
American Legion was organized in
Villas county known as the Eagle Post
No. ia. Every soldier, sailor and
marine in the county who served
during the World War is entitled to
a membership in our post.
Now men, here's our opportunity
Let's get together and work for a
single purpose, and that is to get all
service men of the county to become
members of Eagle Post No ia.

Tree Of Health

Students Of health and life conser-
vation are greatly interested in and
impressed by a recent report Of a large
Industrial life Insurance company
that the number of deaths per
thousand of its policy holders is CON
siderably less than il is per thousand
of the people at large. This is-in spite
of the fact that there is little selec-
tion of their policy holders by medi-
cal examinations of the type employed
by ordinary life insurance companies
The company credits conside able
proportion Of its success in reducing
the number of deaths to it's persistent
campaign of education by means of
millions of pamphlets covering almost
every phase OF sickness and the means
of curing and preventing it, Another
factor is the service to policy holders
of visiting nurses WHO are credited
with reducing death and even sick
ness by timely aid and personal adj
vice and suggestion.
The company claims a general re-
duction in it's death rates of Is per
cent between 1911 and 1917 as against
federal statistics Of | per cent in
crease among the general population
for the same period. The improve
ment among policy holders as COM
pared with the general population is
26 per cent for tuberculosis; 80 per
cent for typhoid; IS per cent for, chill
dren's diseases; 10 per cent for dis
eases incidental to'childbearing.
Throughout Wisconsin there has
been very intelligent interest in
willingness TO contr butte privately
and to appropriate public funds to
begin to do for al people what this
company has done for its policy hold
ers. 1t is comparatively new work for
the public, and conclusive proofs of
it's full value are not yet available.
But neither were they in the instance
OF the insurance company until a
sufficient amount Of time had passed
to permit Judgment sof accumulated
results.
Nobody expectsa fruit tree to bear
until it reaches the bearing age.
Then we expect it to increase steadi-
ly for many years. The tree of public
health work bears some fruit at once.
Only now, however, are we beginning
to get measure as TO quantity. The
figures cited are worthy of study by
all who are interested in improving
their own and their neighbors' health
In one way or anbbher, this Includes
everybody, of course, but the very
young and the feeble minded.

Phelps Plays Here Sunday.

The first game of the season will be
played on the fair grounds Sunday af-
ternoon between, the Phelps and
Eagle River ball teams. The game is
called for three o'clock sharp and will
be a good one judging from the
reports that come down from the
Phelps camp and the way the locals
are getting into shape to meet their
time honored rivals on the diamond
in the initial game of the season.
Prospects for fast team this season
are good. With plenty Of good ma
terial for all positions and plenty of
pep in the organization the local
team ought to put out winning
brand OF ball this year. 1t can re-
tire with honcrs if it equals last
years record which is the aim now.
Attend the game Sunday and help
them get started right.
