 IS ACCUSING INTEREST

IO MUUOlNU MllMOI
 A new interest in the local post of the American Legion has sprung up rather suddenly as it's members have come to realize the importance of the organization nationally and the in- teresting possibilities of the same. To- cally.
 For some, time the American Legion has been on trial, so to speak, for ex-service men all over the coun. try have hesitated to join the Legion, lest it prove to be a mushroom growth, and have anxiously awaited developments in the Legion that would prove it to be substantial or ganization. Having become satisfied that the Legion has come to stay and will in time prove to be of great --.--. tional importance, ex-service men all over the country are hastening to join the American Legion; and Legion Posts have become more &C., tive and have sought means to arouse interest in their organization among the people of their community and especially among the ex-service men who have not yet come to realize the importance and the worth of the Legion to themselves and the Nation.
 The local post of the American Legion has launched upon an active campaign for increasing it's member ship and is offering special induce ments to ex-service men who join the Legion during the month of Decem- Der of this year. No initiation fee is to be charged new members who join the Legion for the coming year if they join during the current month. Dues for the coming year is all that will be collected from either new or old members if they pay same before January 1, 1921.
 Plans for intertaining the general public by giving dances, band con- certs, and local talent shows have been formulated, and action is being taken to start the ball rolling at the earliestspessible date in January.
 The local post of the American Legion has established itself in new headquarters in the Central Conner cial Building on Beale Street and the new quarters are being used as club-room. Books, magazines and are being supplied by the members of the local post and all ex- service men are cordially invited to avail themselves of the privileges of the club room and to attend the reg ular meetings of the local post which are now held on Thursday of each week at 7:30 p. m.
 At the last meeting of the local post of the American Legion, which was held on Monday December 6, new officers for the coming year were elected ,and several questions affecting the Legion and the public interest were discussed.
