POST GETS ARTISTIC RANGE
Chicago Organization Acquires Use of Famous Worlds Fair Field
 Museum Building.

The American Legion will soon have the use of building known to mil lions in America as the embodiment of beauty in art and architecture, the old Fine Arts building of the 1893 Worlds Fair. The crack of army rifles will be heard in the famous structure, for it has. been turned over to the Hyde Park post, No. 34 of the Legion in Chicago as an indoor rifle range
 The large editice. known as the old Field museum after the Worlds fair, was evacuated with the completion of the new Field museum. Various or ganizations of Chicago immediately heSieged the park commissioners for permission to use the building, but the Legion posts request alone was granted.
 Legionnaires now have rifle range de luxe, one that will tend to erase the veterans memories of sweltering days, shiveriug days and cold. moist days spent in trying to locate the )ullSeye on the army's outdoor fir ing points. The building is so large that q 200-yard range was established without difficulty, along with the shorter distances

BOOKS FOR DISABLED HEROES
Congress Appropriates $10o,000 for Reading Material for Soldiers
 Confined to Hospitals.

Disabled heroes of the World war are not to be without good books to read while they are fighting to regain health in the hospitals of this coun- try. Congress has appropriated in the civil sundry bill the sum of $10O 900 for the purchase of books, with the result that each of the 23,000 disabled veterans will soon have three or four new books 10 read.
 The American Library association, which still has charge of the libraries in the larger hospitals has been em- barrassed by q shortage of funds, and up to this time posts of the American Legion have taken over the duty of supplying books to the disabled in hundreds of the smaller hospitals. The appropriation by congress does not mean that either the services of the American Library association or the American Legion in this respect are to be dispensed with, but that they arc to be greatly augmented and rein forced.
