DELEGATES ATTEND
APPLETON MEETING
DIR. r.. w. JONES, EDWARD p.
OERTEL, ID. A. CALDWELL
REPRESENT LEGION

The Talbot Montgomery post of the
American Legion was represented at
a meeting of post commanders, post
adjutants. and delegates of all Legion
posts in Wisconsin at Appleton last
Saturday and Sunday by DR.. Richard
w. Jones, local post commander, Ed
ward P. 0ertel, eX-commander, and
ID. A. Caldwell, secretary of the Cham
ber of Commerce. The three attend
ed practically all the sessions and en-
tered into its deliberations besides
hearing the address made by Judge
X. NJ. Lands.
There were about 500 representa-
tives of Legion posts present and the
discussions that took place were ami
mated. After the first session had
been called to order at 1000 a. m.
Saturday, Bailey Ramsden, of Eau
Claire, formerly of this city, who is
vice-post commander of the Legion in
the Badger state, was called upon
to preside.
Unemployment
The question of unemployment was
first taken up. That every effort
should be made to place ex-service
men in permanent, satisfactory jobs
was the concensus of opinion among
the delegates. The Milwaukee posts
of the Legion announced that during
| the year past 1400 ex-service men
had been placed in jobs and that 900
of these were permanent. Unemploy-
ment has been quite satisfactorily
cared for in smaller cities, the dis
cussion revealed
More attention will this year be paid
fto ~ex. service men who were wound
| ed and who are now receiving hospi-
tai care. The Legion, according to
Mr.. Oertel, will shortly provide form s
| for names of eX-service men, their
| history of service, wounds sustained
and other information, which will be
| filed at national headquarters. 1t is
hoped to obtain not only the names
| of members of the American Legion
but the names and records of all ex-
service men.
Want Compensation
| The bonus was quickly disposed of.
EX-service men want adjusted COM
pensation" and not bonus the dis
cussion at Appleton revealed. The del
egates there were heartily in accord in
their demand that congress dispose
of this question.
"The Women's Auxiliary was proved
to be a most Desirable organization, y
said Mr.. Oertel on his return. "The
ladies served the 600 guests "a de-
licious banquet caring for that num-
ber without apparent difficulty. We
received most hospitable treatment at
Appleton" He also declares that Su-
perior is working for the 1928 conven-
tion of the Legion of Wisconsin and
that Wausau was mentioned for 1924,
this city having a good reputation
as convention city

congress to take some immediate ac-
tion On a soldiers bonus was passed
and Major Gottschalk was authorized
TO send kilograms to Senator Irvine L.
Lenroot and Congressman E. E.
Browne.
Following is the telegram forward
ed to these representatives:
In behalf of a mass meeting of ex-
service men, representing all ex-ser-
vice men of this community, l am
authorized to request you as our rep
resentatiyeS to use every means in
your power TO see that the soldiers
bonus measure is passed immediate
ly and in such form as to bring imme-
diate and adequate financial aid to

and as to provide adequate compensa-
ton to all other ex-service men. Pa
pers and petitions will be forwarded
to you Immediately substantiating the
telegram.
Major Frank L. Gottschalk.
The resolution passed unanimously
was signed by practically all of the
men present and was forwarded with
a letter to Senator Lenroot who was
requested to see to it that Senator
LaFollette and Congressman Browne
received it also. The resolution read
We, the undersigned ex-service
men of Wausau, Wisconsin, do hereby
place ourselves publicly on record as
in favor of the immediate passage
by the present congress of the sol
diers' bonus, in such form as will
bring immediate financial relief to
those in need, and as will bring Just
and fair compensation to all men who

you, as our representative, do all in
your power to secure immediate re-
SUITS
Major Gottschalk declared that the
object of the meeting was to obtain
the united support of all ex-service
men for the bonus. No particular vet
erans' organization was represented
Sunday. S. Knox Kreuizer, post COM

Wars, declared that there had already

TO
SING in WEEK
WILL BE HERE ON MARCH
17-AUSPICES OF
MUSIC CLUB

"Those who attended the American
baritone's recital in Queens hall yes
terday must have prcened their feath-
ers in sheer Joy at the rare beauty
of his singing. Seldom. alas, has such
finely distinguished diction and such
perfection of phrasing come across
the Atlantic. The name of ballad
singer is legion, but the real art
one, is rarity"
Voice of Beauty
This comment by the London Daily
Telegraph following the first recital
given in London by Reinald Werren-
rath in June, 1920. epitomizes the sali-
ent features of this singers art. 1t
is granted that he has voice of un-
usual beauty and admirably trained
but he would not have reached the
point he has today II he could not
have given the public something more
than merely fine voice.
Mr.. Werrenrath is to appear in
Wausau on Friday evening, March IL,
at the Grand Opera house under the
auspices of the Tuesday Musical club
of this city.
All critics agree that clearness of
diction is a prime necessity with sing
ers and all also agree that surpris-
ingly few singers have IT, Werren-
rath is most unusual in this respect.
His English is singularly pure and
clear, altogether free of the careless
ness and laziness so characteristic of
Americans.
Liberal Education
Every word that he sings carries
its full value and IL is a liberal edu-
cation for young singer TO listen
to this artist and observe the ease
with which he interprets song. This
is not confined to his
sor gs in English, by any means. He
is . gifted linguist and his French,
German and Italian are flawless.
AS to the phrasing, that is musi-
the result or study Too
many singers know only singing, can
play no instrument, have no knowl7
edge OF harmony or theory and have
no interest in music outside of that
which is sung Rear success can
never come to such as they. One
Thing that Werrenrath always inn
presses on those that come to him for
advice is that singing is the end of
a musical education, not the begin
ming and that no one can hope TO
achieve real, solid artistic results un-
Ill he has had a thorough training in
music.

five years have been directed toward

strengthening their organizations and
preaching the gospel or the integra-
tion of business.
Complete Data
The organization service bureau is
the repository of the most complete
data with respect to organization
methods. This information is distrib-
uted by the bureau through letters
and the spoken word, to commercial
organizations
Years spent in studying the sub
iect have qualified Mr.. Brown to rem
der expert advice with respect to ac-
tivities that can successfully be un-
dertaken, and those that should be
avoided by business bodies.
In his visits to local chambers Mr..
Brown usually confers first with the
Chambers board of directors and then
talks with the membership. AT these
conferences and meetings the pro-
gram adheres to subjects having TO
do with the local chambers problems,
and with it's relationship to commu-
nifty betterment Much of Mr.. Brown S
time is aiken up with answering ques-
tions on organization structure, activi-
ties and procedure.
During the last five years Mr..
Brown has visited hundreds of or
ganizations in the various states. His
subject here will be "The Value to
the Nation of Well Organized and
Well Directed Effort for Community
Betterment".
Mr. Brown is known as an author
of works on commercial organization.
His publication, Building and Main
tanning a Local Chamber of Com
merce", has been widely circulated.
This work is principally for the COM
munity which has no commercial or
ganization and is endeavoring to es-
tablish one. 1t is of great value, how
ever, to communities seeking to re-
organize their chambers, and to those
desiring to study the most approved
methods in organization structure and
membership building.
