MADE LEGION DRIVE SUCCESS
Bare Devil Louisiana Man Put Real
Thrills Into Campaign for
New Members.

When Anthony Kelley. was dis
charged from the navy In New Or
leans, La, he found the life Of = land
lubber terribly devoid Of thrill and
peril. He had been going to sea since
the age of fifteen and he missed the
excitement of stormy nights in the
dizzy heights of the crow'ssn nest and
hair-raising trips on the ropes far
above the deck.
With the start Of q membership
campaign of Rollin post Of the Amert-
can Legion In New Orleans, Kelley
blossomed out as a professional dare
devil to assist his fellow Legionnaires
In attracting attention. He climbed a
flag pole atop the city hall, several
hundred feet above the pavement and
rocked back and forth trying to break
the pole. A net stretched below was
all that was between the daring Le-
xionnaire and some exceedingly hard
terrain.
Kelley was unable to break the flag
pole, however. 70 he scaled an eight
een-story building and hung from the
coping by his toes. Film companies
rushed Gamer men to take motion
pictures Of the feat and the Legion
membership drive was a success.
"None Of 1t was as thrilling as the
four years and four months / was In
the war zone" Kelley declares. He

II understand you've taken a 5000
a year job" said a correspondent who
interviewed him.
Does 1t pay that?" he asked. "rd
forgotten to ask about the salary"
The salary Is a minor consideration
now, but 1t would have been different
in the days when Colonel Shaughnessy
worked as a messenger boy In Chi
cago. When he was Is years old he
became ticket agent and a year later
telegraph operator for the Chicago &
Northwestern railroad. Successfully
he was chief operator, assistant train
dispatcher, assistant trainmaster and
trainmaster. When the superintend-
ent of the road was ill he took charge.
Colonel Shaughnessy Joined the
Thirteenth engineers as first lieutenant
when the war broke out. He studied
French until he spoke 1t %fiuently, and
worked up a book Of rules adapting
American methods to French practice.
He was promoted fast. Praise came
to him from Brig. Gen. George Van
Horn Meseley, assistant chief OF staff,
for his work as superintendent of the
transportation corps in the Chateau
Thierry region, and as general super
lntendent at Is-sur-Tille during the st.
Mihiel and Meuse-Argonne offensives,
and as general manager In the zone
Of advance.
General Pershing gave him the Dis
tinguished Service medal "for excep-
tionally meritorious and distinguished
services"

forget that voice once heard, and he
was right. He remembered it. 1t was
the voice of Mr.. Duke Beamer, whom
he had had the distinct pleasure OF
b%lackballing for one club in college
and three in town. Mr.. Beamer, to his
honest mind, was the best living ex-
ample of animated slime in tailor
made clothes.
Mr.. b. was not alone; Mr.. Randolph
could just see his companion through
the slant of the half-raised window
glass, and even that distorted glimpse
was very close to q vision. The girl
was young, beautiful, and troubled.
Her cheeks were thin and pale, her
parted lips aquiver; her chin was
atremble. OF course she was very
cheaply but neatly clothed.

ing voice. ride with me or walk the

that there's no job behind you. You've

The girls wan face went through
that c~ontortion which says, Il won't
cry and doesn't, thereby achieving a
pity beyond the need of tears. The
qulvering of her lips, the trembling OF
her chin grew more pronounced-only
to steady down as she swept up strick-

"Of course, little one" said the rasp-

promising lightly to pay on demand,

The Alrl tore her doubling eyes
from his face and stepped toward the
cab. Mr.. Randolph made himself ex-
ceeaing small In the corner nearest
the curb. An unsee agent opened the
door; the girl slipped in and turned to
seat herself her escort made to follow.
Then did Mr.. Randolph suddenly lean
forward and proceed to push in the

The extent to which federal aid has
been applied to the trails varies In
the different states. Naturally, the
Western states are using much more
of the federal appointments in de-
veloping roads of this character than
the Eastern states. This is<due to
the fact that the routes in the East
ern states already had been improved
to a large extent before the roads
were selected by the pathfinders. This
was not true in the West, where long
stretches Of the selected roads were
still in an unlmproved condition when
they were designated.
Nevada leads In It's use Of federal
funds on roads of this character.
Eighty-three per cent Of Its entire
mileage of approved federal-ald roads
lies on one or the other of the trails
which cross the states. On these
roads Nevada will spend 80 per cent
of the federal money which has been
granted to her.
Indiana is q close second, with ~
per cent of its entire federal-aid mile
age and SO per cent Of its money aid

The American Legion rag will fly
In a part of New Orleans that has
been under five flags, for the city
administration has turned over q

Not far from the Legion building Is
the Spanish Cabildo where the Spanish
colors flew in the breezes from the
Gulf of Mexico until they were re-
placed by the French. The Louisiana
Purchase in 1904 resulted In the APP
pearance Of the Stars and Stripes on
the ramparts. In 1912, the British
flag flew also in that vicinity for a few
days. During the Civil war the Con-
federate colors waved proudly over
the southern city. Wher the wounds
Of civil strife were healed the Stars

young voice over Mr.. Randolph's
shoulder, but he was too occupied to
take note Of 1t at the time. He
leaned far put so that the driver could
get the full effect Of his modish top
hat and spoke cryptic words.
"Ten dollars worth of the park" is
what he said.
