 When the employment bureau of the American Legion in St. Paul enrolled four hundred ex-service men out of jobs, O. w. krause, sec retary of the bureau, appealed to the public of St. Paul through the local newspapers. As result more than one hundred men found employment in one day.
 4 plan by which thousands of members of the American Legion might be given a free course in government is proposed by Represen- tative Hamilton Fish. Jr., of New York, an American Legion member. MT. Fish suggests that each member of the house and senate bring a Legionnaire to Washington for three months as one of the secretaries permitted him in his office and re- place him at the end of the period with another and so on. Mir. Fish has already started relay of New York members in his office. An appeal has been made to Ma tional Headquarters of the Ameri- can Legion by officers of the Amer ican and French Children's League to aid the League in its distribution of several millions of peoples, which the women of France have made to be worn on Memorial Day.

 Development of tuberculosis in ] former soldiers who were gassed m action during the world war has in
 creased at q startling rate in the
 last few months, according to the i report of the director of civilian re- l lief of the Southwestern Division, American Red Cross.
 Prosperity and high wages that prevailed from the close of the war until the recent past caused hun dreds of former soldiers throughout the southwest to neglect proper treatment afforded them by the gov ernment in order to fill position that
 paid the unusual compensation Of the postwar period This resulted in the development of chronic bron- chitis which is now running into tuberculosis in 8 mounting propor- tion of cases.
 Needs of ex-soldiers for assist ance in obtaining vocational train ing compensation for wounds and disability, and disqualification have mounted with unprecedented rapidi ty since last June. The report of the Director of Civilian Relief shows the total number of cases handled at St. Louis headquarters for the month of December, 1920, stood at 10,500 as against 7,700 in June, an increase of more than 40 per cent in the half year, and of 66 per cent over December, 1919, when monthly total of 6,000 cases were handled by the home service de paItnlent of the division. This is largely due, according to the re- port, to the break in the demand for labor and the high wages that were paid. Former soldiers of the south west who neglected to take advant- age of the benefits due them by the government for disability are now turning to these agencies by the thousands with the advent of low wages and the small demand for labor.
 Three recent developments con cerning service Inen and their prob lens:
 First-V Vocational training is be- ing offered hy the Y. NJ. c. A. to es-service men not eligible for this training under the Federal Board. The fund appropriated for this pur- pose is available for disabled ex- service men who are American citi- zens, but who, because they served in allied forces or for other techni- cal reasons, are not eligible for

training under the Vocational Re Mobilization Act. Eligibility for, training under the Y. NJ. c. A. fund will be determined by the Federal Board, and submitted to the Edu- cational Service Committee of the National War Work Council. Y. NJ c. A.. for final approval Further information on this subject can be secured from the Department of Civilian Relief.
 Second-The italian Legion, with headquarters at Z24 East i4th St., New York City, is open to all men who served in the Italian army or navy during the late war. 1t has been incorporated for the purpose of reuniting and keeping together those men who fought in the Ital- ian forces. Mutual aid, sick benefit. social intercourse and welfare of members are stated as among the activities of this Legion, the mem hership dues of which are one dol lar per month. Seventy-five thou sand men are eligible to membership in this organization.
 Third-Head stones for graves of deceased soldiers are being provid- ed by the government. Each grave in national cemetery is furnished with a head stone, and all expenses attached to It's erection are borne by the government. However. in cases where soldiers are buried in city or private cemeteries, it is necessary for the deceased's fam fly to make application to the Quartermaster General of the Army. The head stone will be furnished free of charge by the government, and sent prepaid to the freight yard in the city where the cemetery is in which the deceased is buried. Expenses from this point must be borne by the family.
 Information has been received at National Headquarters, Washington. D. C., to the effect that original dis charge certificates have been de- handed and accepted as security for loans made t0 eN-service men. Any one holding such discharge certifi- cates as collateral are urgently re- quested to return same to the own CTS. These invaluable documents should be in the possession of the man as the War Department con templates a campaign at an early

S. s. NEIGHBORHOOD HOUSE

The South Side Neighborhood
House was started as Sunday school
under the auspices Of the Council of
Jewish Women in four small rooms
on 18th and Franklin. Realizing that
some Social Center is necessary to
keep the children off the streets, the
Council decided to institute some
phases of social work. AS result
they secured the services of Miss
Emma Abrahamson to supervise the
work. This year it was found that
the quarters were too small for the
demands of the community and the
settlement house was moved to resi-
dence, and now under the supervision
of Aaron M. Rosenbleet.
Activities of last year included three
boys clubs, three girls clubs, two
sewing classes, two dancing classes,
story telling class, an Americaniza-
ton class and dramatic class.
This years activities are: Nine
boys clubs, six girls clubs, boy
scout troop, three dancing classes,
game room, dramatic classes, mothers
club, three Americanization classes,
four sewing classes for girls and
women, and four gymnasium classes.
A club has been organized Of recent
arrivals to this country for the pur-
pose of promoting social activities
among them. Every Saturday night
they meet for dancing. Through this
activity they are interested in Gull
tural activities. A class has been
formed to study dramatics and pro-
duce plays. Some of them who in
Europe were interested in athletics
are now coming to the regular gymna-
SUM classes and are organizing
soccer team to put on the field next
spring against the crack American
teams.
The mothers club has been organ
lied for the study of child welfare.
