Ever increasing popularity leads to dozens
of individual designs and colorings. You
need look no further than these most pop
ular fabrics to be sure Of that. For the fancy

SPEAKER--POST WILL AT
TEND STATE CONVENTION.

The Eugene MeKibbin post of the
American Legion held a special
meeting Tuesday evening in the leg
ion club rooms to effect plans for
sending a delegation to the state

program for Yankee Doodle day, the

legion will wear their uniforms and
the citizens will be dressed in some
distinctive and uniform fashion.
A definite date for Yankee Doodle
day has not yet been set, but the
local post is trying to arrange 1t to
come between August II and 21.
An executive committee was appoint
ed last Tuesday which will select the
date in accordance with the arrange
ments for talent for day. Sew
eral novel features are now under
consideration, including a troupe OF
Russian ballet dancers, old fashion
ed balloon ascension and parachute
drop into the lake and a slide for life
on a wire stretched from the hotel
roof to the lake.
A telegram has been sent to form
er Judge Landist. of Chicago. in an
effort to arrange a date with him
for lecture, but no reply has been
received, which leads members OF
the legion to believe that he is Civ
ing the request consideration.
Several members of the local post
will leave here tomorrow after
noon, probably accompanied by a
portion of the band. for Dell Rapids
to attend Cootie day, the annual Gel
ebratiCn of the legion of that place.

TO ASK BEER TO
PAY FOR BONDS
CALDER, OF NEW YORK, PLANS
TO OFFER AMENDMENT WHEN

COMES UP.

Washington, ID. c., July 3-An
amendment to the soldier bonus bill

per cent beer and subjecting it to a
tax sufficient to raise the amount of
the bonus is being seriously consid-
cred in the senate, it became known

Senator Calder, of New York, an

amendment when the bonus bill
comes before the senate for consid-
Grafton.
The senator pointed to the results
of recent polls. ON the beer and wine
question as evidence that such a
change in the Volstead law might be
popular throughout the country. At
the same time he said it would pro-
vide a method Of raising the neces-
sary revenue, thereby overcoming
President Harding's objections to a
bonus bill which does not provide In
specific terms how the money to pay
the bonus shall be obtained.
IT the beer amendment is intro
duced II will unQuestionably pro.
woke sharp conflict between the
ultra drys in the senate who also
favor the bonus measure and those
who would like to see some modifi-
cation of the volstead law in re.
sponse to what they conceive to be
a popular demand for the return oi
beer of low alcoholic content.
Senator Calder estimates that .
tax on 8 per cent beer would yield
