LcQiOn Drive on Third Week

The drive for 200 new members
for the Birch Post No. 8 American
Legion is gaining good headway
and every effort is being made to
make the goal. The post had a
membership Of l65 on the first of
the month and many new members
have been added to the list bring
ing it up to nearly 200.
The post has been divided into
two teams, the Whites and the Blues
and at this writing the Blues have
a slight lead over the Whites. Due
to the fact that the winning team
is to be banqueted by the losers
both sides are endeavoring to be
on the winning side.
The National Drive week will be
during the week of May 1922,
during which time every post in
the United States will go after a
million new members. The South
Dakota state drive lasts two
months. May and June during
which time every post is making
campaign for new members.
There are now 10000 men in
the Legion and South Dakota ranks
high in the per cent of the men
eligible who are now members.
This state also ranks high in the
number of posts which it has.
Birch Post must make good
showing at the end of the drive,
and every member is urged to get
one new member. I'VE started to-

Training Work Progresses.

The work Of rounding up the ex
service men who are eligible for
vocational training by the Federal
Board for vocational training of
which Roy j. MADEIRA is the field
officer has been progressing rapidly
and Mr.. MADEIRA reports that more
than so of the $50 which have
made applications from this dis
trict have been satisfactorily dis
posed of.
A large number Of these whose
records were not completed in the
district office at Minneapolis and
whose applications were held up fer
this reason have been interviewed
and the data which was necessary
has been secured and the applica-
tion recommended. The Board
issues the calls for the men at
which time they are sent to the
training schools.
Mr.. MADEIRA has the four counties
in the northeastern section of the
state. with the exception Of the
southern half of Grant county
which is in the Watertown district.
He has made several trips through.
out his territory and succeeded in
getting in touch with the men
whose records were incomplete.
A number of men have moved
out Of the county and out Of the
state in which case the audit sheets
on the man are sent to the district
in which he now lives, as the drive
is nation wide and an effort is be-
ing made to round up all of the
men eligible at this time.
Service men who have disabili-
ties are requested to communicate
with Mr.. MADEIRA with regard to
securing the vocational training
and with Dr.. DeTuncq in regard
to receiving the disability compen-
sation. There will be little or no
delay in completing the records of
a man at this time and he will
know within very short time
whether his application has been
accepted or not.

Record for Tree PLANTING.

Here's one school teacher and
pupils who deserve more than
honorable mention for tree plant
ing on Arbor Day. They have
what we believe 10 the record for
the number Of trees and shrubs
planted on this day.
We refer to Melrose. No. z.
Miss Mae DeGreef is teacher in
the school. In response to the pro.
clamation Of Governor Norbeck
they planted 22 willows, S fruit
trees a apple trees. l cherry tree)
2 currant bushes and 2 gooseberry
bushes.
Some Of the, pupils who are small
now will still be here and able to
enjoy the fruits Of the trees and the
bushes which they have planted but
the little children who come Ia
years after will always have a oc-
casion to be gratAfit to the pupils
Of this school who planted the trees.
Il every school had planted that
number Of trees We would soon
have the reputation Of being !
garden spot and the school yards
would attract the pupils instead Of
repel them.

Merchants Bank Increases CAPITA
S25 0(D.

The Comptroller for the Currency
last Tuesday, authorized The Farm
ers & Merchants Bank of Milbank
to increase the Capital $25, 900.
making their total paid up Capital
stock $4,000 and Surplus $40, 900.
The bank has ADDED several sub
stantial men of Milbank and the
surrounding country to Their list of
stockholders and now have more
than thirty stockholders and nearly
every dollar of the stock is owned
by persons living in Grant county.
This good institution found it
necessary to increase the capital
stock at this time due to the heavy
increase Of business they have en- !.
joyed for some time and to give
their customers the advantage of a
larger capital stock. The Deposits
of this bank have been over one
million dollars for some time past
and its long and honorable record
Of 38 years Of careful and conserva-
tive banking make the institution
one that every citizen of Grant
COT nty can feel proud of. We
have always found the officers and
directors of this bank ready and
anxious to lend every support in
the up-building of Milbank and
Grant county and we believe the
bank merits the large business
they now have.
