veteran, who has just returned TO his
home in New Zealand. after having
spent several months in the asylum
for the insane at Elgin. III.
Thompson came to the United States
after having his health shattered In
the war. Acting on the advice OF the
Canadian government, which looks
after New Zealand military pension
ers In America. he called at the Office
Of the veterans bureau In Chicago.
A week after Thompson first called at
the Office of the bureau, he says that
he found himself a regular inmate in
the asylum at Elgin, 'eceIvlng very
poor food and Indifferent treatment.
He finally succeeded In smuggling
letters out 10 a former college friend
who took the matter up with the
asylum authorities. His release was
arranged on the condition that he
leave the United States Immediately.

ORIGINATED THE GOLD STAR

Idea 10 Presented to J. M.
Buck of Omaha, Neb.

A medal purchased with funds given
by the governors OF many states, Gen
eral pershing and a hundred notables
In civil and military circles, has been
presented to J. NJ. Buck Of Omaha.
Neb., who originated the gold star
which was placed on the caskets of all
war dead to be returned to this coun-
try from European battlehelds.
Omaha was a distributing point for
the United States graves registration
service. After the federal agency be-
gan to-return bodies from overseas,
thousands of caskets passed through
Omaha. Mr. Buck suggested TO the
Omaha American Legion that a gold
star be placed on each soldiers casket.
The Legion Immediately accepted the
idea and through the Legion's orgnni-
cation, the custom OF placing the star
on all soldiers caskefs In all parts OF
the United States was adopted.
Every contingent OF soldier dead ar
irving at Omaha was met at the rail-
way station by q delegation from the
American Legion. Mr.. Buck always
accompanied the Legionnaires and su-
pervised the placing Of the stars on
the caskets. The medal was presented
Mr.. Buck as an expression Of appreci-
alton of his work.
