JUNEAU MADE
 HEADQUARTERS
 FOR THE LEGION
Territorial Headquarters For American Legion Moved From Anchorage
 To Juneau City

The Territorial headquarters of the American Legion has been re- moved from Anchorage to Juneau.
 The change was made recently be- cause Juneau is more centrally To- cated, and owing to the fact that George Getchell, who was the only Alaska delegate to the National Con yention held at Minneapolis on De- cember 10, was named National Executive Officer for Alaska and will have his headquarters here.
 On account of the difficulty in getting mail to and from Anchorage is thought that the change will make it easier to speed up business matters.
 Anchorage was the first city in Alaska to organize a post of the 'merican Legion and received the first charter. It is likely that Ju- neau will now remain headquarters lntil a Territorial convention is held and place chosen.
 Two new posts of the American Legion have recently been organ zed. The new posts are at Wran- gell and Ketchikan.
 The Elks have donated the use f their hall to the Legion here md in the future all the meetings will be held at that place.

TREES IN ST. JOHNSBURY

Att he Woman's Club meeting in
St. Johnsbury Monday the chairman
of the forestry committee, Mrs.
Helen c. Thompson, made several
pertinent suggestions as to what
might be done in this town along
forestry lines. One was that we
mioht follow the splendid example
of some other Vermont towns ond
plant memorial trees or avenues to
honor our soldiers. .
Another suggestion which if car
fied out might be of far more practi-
cal value was to acquire and cultivate
a municipal forest. This would serve
as recreation ground and also, by
proper care. become a source Of
revenue to the municipality by the
sale of wood and lumber
These suggestions arc worth think
ing over and adopting.
