A delegation from our post served
as pail bearers at the funeral of ia
hue R. Livingston, fellow-veteran
who died in hospital in France from
wound received in battle on Octo-
Der 8, 1913, at the family burying
ground near jolly Street Sunday af-
ternoon. His pastor, Rev. S. P.
Koon, conducted the bhrial service
in the presence of several hundred
friends and relatives. The floral tri-
butes were numerous and beautiful.
Have you paid your membership
dues for 1921? If you want them to
count in the membership-cup race
they must be paid by April 9Th. We
still retain your name on our roll,
but your name was dropped from the
roster at national headquarters and
at state headquarters on February
2Sth. That is the reason you have
not been receiving the Legion Week
ly. You can be reinstated by paying
your dues, $3.50.
Fellow-veteran of the world war,
don't you want to be eligible to wear
the badge Of honor-the American
Legion button? Everybody can't
wear one. You become eligible when
you join the American legion. All
you have to do is fill out an applica-
tion blank and pay the dues, which
for Post No. "a is $3.50. Let us
have your name before April 9Th.
You ask, What has the legion done?
First will mention a few things
that have been accomplished by the
local post: 1t has repaired and fitted
up it's present quarters so that we be-
lieve we have just reason to feel
proud of our home. Especially since
this was accomplished without call
ing upon the general public for as
sistance. 1t has been pleasure to US
to grant permission for the various
organizations to use the hall when
ever desired.
1t distributed the French War me-
mortal certificates to the next of kin
of those who were called upon to
make the supreme sacrifice.
1t contributed to the fund where
by flowers and an American flag was
placed on the grave of every veteran
who sleeps on foreign soil, on last
Memorial day.
1t has taken charge of the funerals
of departed comrades of this commu-
nifty.
1t has secured Victory medals from
the government for the veterans who
have made application for them.
1t has helped veterans with their
War Risk insurance, with their COM
pensation claims; aided them to Sc
cure vocational training; and placed
some in hospitals.
1t has striven to keep holy and un-
polluted, not only the memories of the
veterans service. but the clear dis
cerning knowledge of why they serv-
ed-witness the Armistice day cele-
bration.

that Adelbert Korfanty and his Polish
irreEulars must be curbed. that the
