spirit Of God in the Church.

There may be some who ask, Does
the Holy Spirit fill the church today
and transform the hearts and lives OF
men as He did in the days of the
Apostles? Yes He does, when the
people of the churches become more
anxious for the gift of the Spirit than
for outward showing, when the most
earnest prayers are uttered for the
.iyinr of the Spirit Of God. In our
devotion to organization, and clubs,
and guilds. we sometimes forget the
need of the Holy Spirit. And yet we
know that souls are not saved by
clubs and societies. and concerts, and
by moving pictures at the evening
services. but by the presence Of the
Spirit of God in the church, in both
pastor and people.

"all cOmers," Bouligny was one Of the
first Americans TO volunteer his
services for France and was decorated
four times for bravery with the esqua-
drlle. He Is a member Of Alvin Cal
lender post, American Legion.
Bouligny first served with the Second
regiment Of the French Foreign
Legion. When transferred to the
Lafayette flyers, his intrepid ma
neuvering over the emmy lines, eager
ness to engage any plane bearing the
maltese cross, contributed many Of the
thrilling chapters which comprise the
history Of that heroic group. He was
transferred to the American air
forces when this country entered the
fight and became an ace. He also
secured numerous remarkable photo
graphs, among them being one OF
enemy shells bursting over the Rheims
cathedral during the first lombard
ment Of this historic structure.
The organization Of which Bouligny
is president, includes American volun-
teers who enlisted In the early days
of the war, while their country was
still neutral, and Is intended to include
"the bOnafide American citizens who
served hOnorably at the front with the
legion, for the purpose Of keeping
fresh the memory of fallen comrades
and furtherlng friendship among those
surviving"

BOY SCOUTS IN HUNGARY.

Scouting Is ten years old in Hun
gary and, though the war stopped its
growth for a time, the movement was
reOrganized and put on firm basis
in September, 1919. In Its earlier
stages the Hungarian scout associa-
ton was, like the German, semi
military organization, but with Its re-
establishment it has rejected the mil
ltary element and founded itself on
the British and American nonmilitary
basis. The ACKNOWLEDGMENT Of Hun
gary was a severe blow to the progress
Of the movement inasmuch as more
than so per cent Of the Magyar troops
are now in occupied territories. OFF,
GERS, money and equipment are badly
needed. Some Of the boy scouts have
no money even to purchase shoes,
much less scout uniforms. Most Of
the leaders are professional men or
clerks who have hard enough strug-
gle to earn their own living and yet
they devote time and often money to
the cause.
1--WE are all the more proud" writes
a Hungarian old scout, that despite
hardships and sufferings, our scouts
unfalteringly. with a strong soul and
In a real scout spirit, follow the path
which leads to our great goal-goOd
citizenship and real humanity"
The Hungarian boys are particularly
anxious TO be nc : led in the Inter
national Brotht rood Of Scouts and
offer and bespeak In turn good will,
understanding and support in the
spirit of true scouting.

LEGION MEN VISIT FRANCE
American Party on Tour Of Former
Battle Sectors; at Fllrey Monu-
ment Dedication.

The new "a. E. F." Is In France
on q mission much unlike that OF the
A. E. F. of l917-191S. The new forces
are oily go strong. They comprise
members Of the American Legion who
are touring the former battle sectors
this summer as guests Of the French
government.
Every state and every branch OF
service Is represented In the peacefui
new A. E. f. They sailed from New
York on the George Washington.
There was a noisy bon voyage at the
docks as the former presidential snip
started on its course. Flags of the
United States and the American ke-
gion flew from the mast.
Commanding or rather heading the
pilgrimage was John G. Emery, the
Legion's national commander. For
ner commanders Franklin D'Olier and
Henry D. Lindsey were present.
Arriving at LeHavre, the citizen ex-
pedition was received with great eclat'
after which 1t proceeded to Paris un-
der tow of French officials. From
Paris the party set out by special train
for Blols TO attend the dedication OF
the Joan of Arc statue presented TO
the French city by the Joan OF Arc
Committee of New York.
While at BlOis, the veterans lnvauN
the old headquarters Of the army TO
classification board, known better %
the doughboy as the "benzine ooaru.
Here the Americans staged q burlesque
Of a benzine hearing during which a
score Of the pilgrims were "blooyed
as they used to say in the days OF TIL"
fighting A. E. F.
Every city visited by the former de-
tenders has received them with arms
wide-open. That France has not for
gotten Is everywhere evidenced by the
cordiality of the receptions. At Boz
deaux, the Leglonnaires received the
freedom Of the city" from the high
officials. From there they went TO
Tarbes to visit the birthplace of Cen
eral Foch. They placed a memorial
tablet upon the house that first smell
tered the famous generalissimo.
The former fighters were impressed
by the rap;dity with which many or
the ruined towns have been rebuilt.
Some Legionnaires have gone over the
exact location where they fought the
battle of liberty and where many OF
their buddies fell in action.
Probably the most impressive Ger
emony participated in by the Ameri-
cans was the dedication Of the Flirey
monument. This memorial is tribute
TO the valor Of the doughboys who
delivered the little town Of German
occupation. Flirey is familiar ground
TO many American soldiers. 1t Is on
the ridge which was the main line
of resistance of the old Toul sector.
1t was at Fllrey that the Eighty
ninth, from Kansas and Missouri, went
into conflict. Seventeen American
divisions fought In the vicinity Of the
little town, which itself was occupied
by regimental headquarters Of troops
holding the line.
At the close of their tour the Legion
men will go to Paris where they will
have three days A. w. o. L., after
which they will sail on their return
voyage. The party is expected to re-
turn about September 10.
