AT THE MAJESTIC.

Everyone has possibly read Of the
wise old owl who sat in an oak,
who held his own tongue saw ana
heard a great deal. yet few perhaps
realize the virtue OF such advice as
think more and say less" until the
truth of the phrase is brought home
in some decisive manner. The les
son Of the advice is found in "rhe
Furnace" that elaborate picture
which is being presented at the
Majestic beginning today
In that production the idle threat
made just before the marriage Of
Folly Valance and Anthony Bond
caused the young couple TO be at
variance with one another when
they had everything in the world TO
make them ideally happy.
Agnes Ayres beautifully fills the
role OF Folly, the London musical
comedy star. She is easy to look
upon and a splendid actress in addi-
ton. The role OF Folly is about the
biggest thing she has yet been pre-
eented in here.

SCRIPTURE


Blessed is he that considereth the poor:
the Lord will deliver him in time of trou-
BILE.
The Lord will preserve him, and keep
him alive; and he shall be blessed upon the
earth: and thou wilt not deliver him unto
the will of his enemies.
The Lord will strengthen him upon the
bed of languishing: thou wilt make all
his bed in his sickness.
I said, Lord, be merciful unto me: heal
my soul for have sinned against Thee.
Mine enemies speak evil of me, when
shall he die, and his name perish?
And if he cine to- see me, he speaketh
vanity, his heart gathereth iniquity TO
itself; when he goeth abroad he telleth it.
All that hate me whisper together against
me: against me do they devise my hurt
An evil disease, say they, eleaveth fast
unto him: and now that he lieth he shall
rise up no more.
Yea, mine own familiar friend, in whom
l trusted, which did eat of my bread, hath
lifted up his heel against me.
But thou, o Lord, be merciful unto me,
and raise me up, that 1 may requite
them.
By this I know that thou favorest me.
because mine enemy doth not triumph
And as for me, thou upholdest me in
mine integrity, and settest me before thy
face forever.
Blessed be the Lord God of Irrael from
everlasting, and to everlasting. Amen, and
amen.

AMERICAN LEGION NEWS

Observance of Theodore Roosevelts
birthday on October 81 is urged upon
all posts of the American Legion in
instruction being sent out by national
headquarters of the service organiza-
ton. The 1900 legion units are
asked to organize celebrations of their
own or to take active part in exercises
arranged by other community bodies
THE American army in France and
in the camps at home never had a bet
ter friend than Theodore Roosevelt"
the legion instructions read. IF he
had had his wish he would have
fought and died attour side; as it was,
he fought the good cause at home I'M
til. like the soldier on the firing line,
he fell fighting, with his face to the
enemy. By his vigorous efforts for
preparedness he made all Americans
his debtors. No one will ever know
how many American lives were saved
to future usefulness by his appeals for
adequate protection before war came"
Legion posts likewise are co-operat-
ing with the Roosevelt Memorial as
ISOLATION in collecting memorials of
the former president. Members of the
organization in all parts of the coun-
try are surrendering letters which
Colonel Roosevelt had written them,
acknowledging application for service
in the division which he tried to form
for world war service, along with 9TH
er mementoes of the great American
for preservation by the memorial So
ciety.
Whether former soldiers whose
minds were wrecked by shell-shock,
wounds and gas are temporarily or
permanently insane is to be deter
mined in three suits to compel pay

government, filed in United States dis
trict court at Providence, R. l., by
James B. Littlefield, attorney. acting
for the American Legion.
The action has been taken in behalf
of three soldiers, Adam Mikillwicz,
Giuseppe Vitullo and James MCGEE.
1t is alleged by the Legion attorney
that the three are totally disabled as
result of insanity. The government
insurance bureau, LittIefield charges,
has refused to pay the insurance of
the men on the ground that they are
but temporarily disabled and may re-
cover their mental faculties.

Legion Appears at Seneca.
Impressive Demonstration by
Industrial Council Here.

Arnistice day will be widely OBJ
served in Kansas this year, according
to reports received at state headquar-
tiers of the American Legion.
Altho a bill to make November II
a legal holiday in Kansas failed in the
last legislature, the day will be OBJ
served at least as a partial holiday in
practically every city in the state, At
Salina the day is designated a full
holiday under proclamation of the
mayor.
The Topeka Industrial council and
other central labor bodies of the state
are planning impressive disarmament
demonstrations. simultaneous with
convening at Washington of the inter
national disarmament conference
called by President Harding.
The speakers bureau of the Kansas
department of the American Legion is
beginning to receive requests for
Armistice day speakers. One hundred
are on the list of available speakers.
Governor To Baldwin.
Gov. Henry ]. Allen is scheduled to
deliver the dedicatory address for the
new American Legion hall at Baldwin.
The exercises will be in the chapel of
Baker university, the governors alma
mater. Later he will be enterta in ed
by Delta Tau Delta, his collegiate fra
ternity.
Adjutant Frank E. Samuel of the
American Legion is to speak at Seneca
before the Progressive club on the
night of November 10 and at a general
Armistice day celebration on the fol-
lowing day.
I1f Leavenworth, memorial services
are to be held in all churches on the
afternoon of Armistice day. An elab-
crate parade, Mardi gras and street
dance, with two bands to furnish the
music, are other features of the cele-
bration.
Aims of Legion.
ST am urging that Armistice day be
widely celebrated by the American
Legion thru posts of the Kansas de-
partment, especially by large public
meetings addressed by prominent and
able speakers on subjects emphasizing
the aims of the Legion said Adiutant
Samuel.
Discussion of our ideals and aims
in many instances will be obtained by
arrangement with civic organizations,
such as Rotary. Kiwanis and Lions
clubs, for the appearance of a Legion
speaker at meetings occurring On or
around November II. Many of the
clergy will undoubtedly speak on
Armistice day subjects on the Sunday
preceding or following November H.

a tremendous success and its popu-

who have done so much to make the

Provision is made thru which all
Kansans coming to California may go

done they receive invitations to attend
