MEMORIAL DAY DECORATIONS
FOR OVERSEAS GRAVES

Another Memorial Day is approach
ing. Thousands of our comrades still
sleep on foreign soil, in compliance
with desire of relatives that they rest
forever on the battlefelds where they
fell. But few of the relatives of the
fallen came go to Europe to lay
memorial wreath on the grave of the
dear departed As last year, the
American Legion will perform this
holy service.
Committees have been formed in
France and Great Britain, composed
largely Of Legion men. Posts in Eng
land, France, Belgium and Germany,
cooperating with these committees
will see that every overseas grave Of
an American soldier is as fittingly
decorated as if all our comrades slept
in the soil Of the homeland. The
National Commander feels it partic-
ularly appropriate and solemn obli-
cation that the members of the Amer
lean Legion contribute to a purpose
of this nature. He therefore issues
a call to all members of the Legion,
through Department and Post organi-
zations to give their moral and finan-
cia1 support to the decoration of the
graves of our comrades who lie over
seas 1t is requested that
l. The Department of Kansas raise
from the members of The American
Legion a sum equal to ten cents per
member in good standing as of March
L, 1921;
2 That no Post contribute less than
$500;
3. That checks be made payable to
the National Treasurer, The Ameri-
can Legion;
4. That all checks reach the Kan
sas Department Headquarters not
later than April so, at which time
entire amount will be wired to Ma
tiona1 Treasurer; dater renittancee
will have to be eah1ed.1
5. That letters of transmittaI state
checks are for the fund for the Dec
Grafton of American graves overseas.
All funds will be accounted for by
the Department Headquarters and by
the National Treasurer.
Posts are requested to send al
checks and moneys to Department
Headquarters direct AID not to Ma
tional Headquarters. (SeveraI com
munications from National Head
quarters have emphasized this pro
cedure.) We are not able to give eredi
to number Of our posts last year be
cause of sending checks elsewhere. I
is essential that Kansas receive credi
for all funds contributed by Kansas
members.
There will be instances in which
relatives of our fallen comrades viii
wish a particular scheme of decora
tion carried out, or they may wish t,
contribute a certain amount of none.

Capital Is all Set for Gay
Season After Years of
Gloom Under Wilson
Washington, With Assembling OF In
ternational Conference, Expects
Many Gala Events.

Unless all signs fail, the coming
winter is going to witness the greatest
social season Washington has ever
had. The family plate is being polish
ed by the buffers and housenlaids, dong
vacant ball rooms are being redecorat-
ed, and social leaders are giving at
tention to their wardrobes.
Washington has been socially starv-
ed for the last six or eight years. Not
since the advent of the Wilson's, back
in 1913, has there been any OF the
"old time" social life in Washington.
Mrs. Wilson was not socially inclined,
neither was the president, and, ito help
them out, the war in Europe came
along and tabooed extensive entertain
ing.
Now the sun is beginning to peep
over the social horizon. The Hardings,
both Of whom enjoy social functions,
rule at the white house; the war is
over. and, most important Of all, Wash
ington is going to be the capital Of the
world for a time this winter with the
assembling of the conference on limi-
tation of ornaments and far eastern
affairs.
The worlds leading statesmen will
be in Washington and the dowagers
are planning to send them minus the
impression that Washington is on the
edge of the backwoods. There is, how
ever, one large fly in the social swim,
This will be the first real social season
that Washington has ever undertaken
in the absence of the familiar cocktail,
highball and champagne. Private
stocks are being carefully guarded, but
it is believed that, by giving the for
eign visitors a diplomatic status, thus
allowing them to bring their own liq-
uors, that the social affairs will not
be entirely dry"

Jury was out "a hours.
Judge Bell Immediately sentenced
Hudson to be hanged, between the
hours of 10 a. m. and p. m. on Nov.

Six Wanted Mercy.
From the outset the jurors stood six
for straightout conviction and five Tor

Gradually. however, the five went over
to fhe majority. =,
Hudson received his sentence with
out display of emotion. If he was sur
Drised if he was unnerved, if emotion
of any sort stirred within him he did
not betray the fact. He heard the SOL
emn words of the court fixing the day
and approximate hour OF his execution
with a real or simulated stoicism like
that he has displayed throughout his
trial. In a few minutes he was on his
wav back to his cell in the jail close
by. there to await further develop
mentS in his case.
His wife, jointly indicted with him
for the murder Of her children, is in
a cell in another part of the jail. They
do not see each other and no ocommuni-
cation has passed between them for
DAYS She will be brought to trial dur
ing the present term of the court, the
Indictment naming her as principal,
equally responsible with her husband
for the crime of which he has been
found guilty.
Motion for New Trial.
A motion was made for new trial,
and it will be heard on November 18th.
Hudson still strongly protests his in
noCenCe.

DRINK HOT TEA
FOR A BAD COLD

Get a small package of Hamburg
Breast Tea at any pharmacy. Take
tablespoonful of the tea, put cup OF
boiling water upon it, pour through
sieve and drink teacup full at any
time during the day or before retiring.
1t is the most effective way to break
cold and cure grip, as it opens the
pores of the skin, relieving congestion
Also loosens the bowels, thus driving
cold from the system.
Try it the next time you suffer from
a cold or the grip. It is inexpensive
and entirely vegetable, therefore safe

c.. NJ. Bacon, Pioneer of
Pecan Industry, Dies
His Groves in Mitchell County Are the
Oldest in the State.

Mr.. G. NJ. Bacon, identified for
many years as the leader of the pecan
industry in Georgia, died in Atlanta
Wednesday evening, at private SAM
tarium Mr.. Bacon was seventy-tour
years old.
Mr.. Bacon devoted his energies and
unusual abilities for many years to the
development OF the paper shell pecan,
and it is largely due to his indefatiga--
Bile efforts that the present splendid
nut has been developed The Bacon
groves at Dewitt, in Mitchell county,
are said to be the Oldest in the state.
Here Mr.. Bacon. worked out the bud
ding and grating experiments, which
resulted in the modern perfected va
rieties of pecans which are now so
widely propagated.
The vast sums invested in south
Georgia pecans, and the rich returns
now being produced by the industry
are to large extent due to the sue
cessful experiments and development
carried out by Mr.. Bacon.

stunt flying in unrestricted areas was
responsible for as many casualties as
all other elements combined. While
stunt flying Is necessary to testing and
essential to warfare-and it is be-
lieved advisable that all pilots know
how to stunt, so that in case Of an
emergency, when only a stunt will
save their craft, they will be able to
act quickly, with understanding and
without fear-the habit Of stunning for
thrill is dangerous, fatal in many in
stances and always harmful to civil
flying. A governmental system of con-
troll limiting stunning to certain areas,
will meet this unfortunate mena to
a~eronautics.
1.-TWO accidents were reported
through carelessness On the field. In
one notable instance the pilot, in order
to avoid the crowd which surged out
In front Of his machine as he was
taking off, deliberately wrecked his
craft. It is observed that at every
flying demonstration, wen at locally
policed fields, the spectators ignore
warnings and must be forced to keep
back. Only federal rules, rigidly en-
forced, will meet this situation.
"Finally, five accidents are attribut-
ed to unknown causes The hope of
preventing accidents depends on learn
ing-then correcting-the cause of
each. 1t is evident government au-
thority is required to obtain informa-
ton in such cases."
