JOINING THE LEGION

DR.. Frank Crane says that one of
the very best things that comes out Of
war is comradeship. Ex-soldiers are
held together by the strong ties of
fellowship. That is the reason, says
DIR. Crane, why he would join the
American Legion. The American Le-
gion in Brookings is a mere skeleton
of what it should be. 1t seems tragic
that such a large number Of ex-service
men should willingly cut themselves
off from the comrades and old as
sociations without a thought of how
much they might regret 1t a few years
hence. The Brookings post is con-
Quoting a membership campaign in an
effort to raise the roll up to a point
some where nea normal for a city Of
this size. Five times the present
membership should be the goal.
A good live, large American Legion
post is an asset to any city. In some
towns in South Dakota it has come to
play a far more important and far
more beneficial part than the COM
merical club. When moved by the
old spirit. there is something about a
bunch Of ex soldiers that is unbeat-
able. They car accomplish anything.
They always bring home the desired
results, provided they have a little
cooperation from the community. 1t
is worth the while of every Brookings
citizen to boost the local American
Legion post and urge all ex-service
men to become active members.

AYLESWORTH JOHNSON

The whole city and college com
munity are mourning this week with
President and Mrs. Willis E. Johnson
over the death Of their son, Ayles-
worth. who passed away Tuesday, Au-
gust 1, after a long period of illness.
Aylesworth Spalding Johnson was
born at Aberdeen, South Dakota,
January %, 1903. He attended the
public schools at Aberdeen and the
first two years Of high school. He re-
moved with his parents to Brookings
during the summer Of 1919 and was
making excellent progress in the high
school when it was suddenly dis
covered in the fall of that year that
he was severely afflicted with dia.
betes in an extremely aggravated
form. This was probably IN after
effect Of an attack of the influenza
which he had early in the spring be
fore. He was taken at once to a
Chicago hospital and placed under re.
nowned specialists. At intervals Of
about six months he was taken to
hospitals, but it was not possible at
any time to build up a tolerance for
sugar forming foods on a diet sui.
ficient to sustain life.
For nearly three years the youth
faced certain and impending death.
repeatedly being drawn out of its
| clutches BY heroic efforts. Knowing
perfectly all the situation, with every
avenue darkly Decentralization, oc.
cupation, a home of his own, even
most simple pleasures denied him
during all this time Ayleswortl Calm
ly and courageously met his fate with
a sweet spirit, with never one murmur
or complaint or a trace Of bitterness.
He possessed superior intelligence, a
fine strong body, a kind and sympa.
thetic disposition, and a deep spiritual
nature. Together with his parents
and brothers he was a member of the
Methodist Episcopal Church.
The other four sons of President
and Mrs. Willis E. Johnson of State
college are here, DR.. Willis l.. John
son of GAINESVILLE, Wisconsin, DR..
Arthur l.. Johnson of Chicago, Stanley
C. Johnson Of Manhattan, Kansas,
Clarence E. johnson of Cresbard,
South Dakota, and DR.. Johnson's
mother and sister of Campbell,
California, and other relatives and
friends have also arrived.
The funeral services win be held at
the home Friday afternoon at half
past three, Rev. r. c. Keagy, pastor
of the Brookings Methodist Church,
officiating. The High School Boys
Quartet and the Viking Quartet will
sing. A group Of his former high
