war against the Boches. There are
aviators, artilferymen, foot soldiers

their unluckiest day the day they

THE biggest task before this con-
vention of the American Legion In
Maryland is to show by It's actions
that the thoughts OF the legion are
turned in the direction OF having
duties and obligations substituted for
rights. This country is suffering now
because too many people are refec-
ting upon their rights and privileges
and not rejecting upon their duties
and obligations. The former service
man, represented by the American
Legion, has had his mind developed
along lines of service. He has with
in him the possibility of recognizing
duties and obligations and perform
ing them. That is why he has been
trained. 1t is my hope that this con-
vention will demonstrate above every
thing else the former American SOL

TO be the general idea that this CON
vention will attend TO the affairs Of
the ex-serviee man and keep out OF
national politics.
But some members. searching for
something constructive for the legion
to do, have prepared resolutions which
will be brought before the conyen-
tion. One deals with the bonus ques-
tion which is an ever-present subject
OF discussion among ex-soldiers,
while the other Is brand new. IL Will
provide that all such Institutions as
the War Camp Community Service
and the Red Cross. which have for
their primary object the idea OF
helping the soldier. be taken over by
the American Legion. The plan TO be
proposed will provide that the Aneri-
can Legion conduct these activities in
the interest OF soldiers and that the
State aid the legion by appropriations
OF suitable funds.
IDEA TO M THOUGHT OVER.
This idea will be carefully scruti-
ntzed by members Of the legion, who
feel that the organization ought not
to shoulder responsibilities nat 70

men will want to be assured, before
they vote for II. that the plan will be

The bonus resolution will provide
that in place OF cash bonus each
former service man be awarded paid
up war insurance at the rate OF $500
Tor each month he served In the army,
with the proviso that the total of no
individual paid-up policy be more
than 10000.
Both these resolutions and others
that may be presented will be con-
sldered by the resolutions committee,
which will be elected today. The

He baked, however, when he saw she had three small children with her. when, according to his understanding there was only one child included in the matrimonial agreement. It was when the woman insisted that he must accept all three of the children that Terrie became angered and proceeded to raise 3 rough house. X condition of his release. officers said. was that he shall marry the woman on the terms stipulated by her. He promised that the wedding would tHAe place between now and Sunday.

In this way we will be better able to reach the parents and succeed in getting them interested in school and community work.
