In outlining the 1928 legion program
for the Kansas department, the ex-
meeting pledged itself to a high and
unselfish program of service. While
expecting to always serve one another
within the organization it became evil
dent that the legion would attempt to
an even greater extent to serve the
community, state and nation when
ever possible. The success of the
compensation campaign just closed

The-Outpouring of the Holy Spirit
At length, on the day of the Harvest

place; when suddenly there came
from the sky sound as of a strong

The Gift of Tongues
Now there were Jews residing in
Jerusalem, deyout men from every
part of the world. So when this noise
was heard, they came crowding to-

with wonder, and exclaimed,
Are not all these speakers Cali

by them? Some o1 u are Parthians,
Medes, Elamites. Some are inhabi-
tants of Mesopotamia, of Judaea or
Gappadocia, OF Pontus or the Asian
Province, of Phrygia or Pamphylia,

from Rome-being either Jews or

we all alike hear these Galilaeans

They were all astounded and be-

But others, scornfully jeering, said.

WOULD BAR FOREIGN LANGUAGE
Urge All Schools Be Under

Ex-Service Men May Be Exempt
From Poll Tax.

Probably the most important action
taken by the executive committee of
the Kansas del -rtment of the Ameri-
can Legion in mapping out the work
OF the Legion in this state for the
ensuing year at a meeting held at To-
peka early shis week was the APP
pointment of a standing Legislative
committee. This committee, of which
Frank II. Mcfarland of Washington,
Kan. assistant United States attor-
ney at Topeka, was named chairman,
viii stress four proposed measures be-
fore the coming state legislature.
These measures would provide:
That all ex-service men be exempt
from payment of poll tax.
To Teach English i'm Schools.
That the teaching of subjects of
education in any but the English Ian
guage in any schools or colleges of
the state, except in classes where a
foreign language is the only subject
of study. be prohibited.
That all schools of the state be re-
quired to be under supervision of the
public school authorities as to teach
ing qualifications and educational re-
quirements in their standards. That
no person be employed as teacher or
tion OF Kansas who is a member of,
or who, during or before such en-
plOyment. lends himself or herself to
the teaching or propaganda of the
principles OF any LIeOry or society
which advocates the change or de-
struction of our present form of gov
ernment by force or violence.
The Legislative Committee.
Besides Chairman Mcfarland, the
legislative committee is composed of
Matt Guilfoyle, Herington, state vice
commander of the Legion. and J. G..
SOmers. Newton. chairman of the
Kansas Compensation Committee Of
the Legion.
A special committee to confer with
similar BODY from the Legion Aux
Hilary department on establishment of
a welfare fund for former service men

pointed by State Commander William

Within a year after the soldiers

probable, the plan for distributing tha

1t now is deemed even probable that
by the expiration OF the year the
actual distribution of the money will
have been started. The bonus bill was

Forty States Pass Bonus.
Up to the recent election fifteen
states had passed soldiers bonus
measures and to date, according to in
formations obtained at the headquar-
ters of the Kansas department OF the
have passed some sort of legislation
beneficial to the ex-soIdiers. Among
the states which adopted a cash bonus
measure at the recent elections, were
ably Oklahoma. 1t may take the Of
ficial count to determine whether the
project got the required number OF
votes in the latter state.
The commission which will have
charge of the distribution of the $25,-
100000 Kansas bonus will consist of
the new governor, Jonathan M. Davis;
the newly elected secretary OF state
Frank J. Ryan, and State Auditor
Norton A. Turner and Adult. Gen.
Charles I. Martin. OF course, the job
of compiling the lists OF names of per-
sons eligible to receive the bonus Will
be an enormous one. 1t is understood
that women as well as men are eligi-
BILE, so the number will include ap-
proximately 1900 Kansas women who
became army nurses and some 900
others who served in other capacities,
largely as yeomenettes.
$4,000 Kansans i'm Service.
According to Legion headquarters.
there were $4,000 young men, resi-
dents of Kansas, who Joined the armed
forces prior to November IL, 1919;
64,150 were enlisted men An the army,
1850 were in the navy, fs2o0 Eere n
the marine corps and 5000 were Of
ficers. OF this number 2.450 died IN
service and 500 were given discharges
other than honorable. The bonus law
restricts the bonus to those who "were
honorably' discharged.
It is probable that one of the first
measures to go before the legislature
after it convenes next January will
be n bill to create the $25,0O0,OOO
bond issue. The measure having re-
ceived the required vote on referen-
dunn of all the people, the legislature
is obligated to issue the bonds. The
law requires that the state officials
charged with administration Of the
bonus must make all regulations rela-
tive thereto. One of the most impor-
tant points not yet determined is the
question of what is the maximum date
for the dollar day service. 1t Is
pointed out that some Kansans re-
three years after the war ended on
November II. 1919. and there are
some who still are in the service.
1t is probable that the question of
when did the war end?' will again
have to be settled, an American Le-
gion Official said. This may be neces-
sary in determining up to what date
the bonus should be effective.

The Apostles meet in Jerusalem
for Prayer
Then they returned to Jerusalem
from the mountain called the olive
yard, whikh is near Jerusalem, about
a mile off. They entered the city
which was now their fixed place for
meeting. Their names were Peter
and John, James and Andrew, Philip
and Thomas. Bartholomew and
Matthew, Sames the son of Alphaeus,
Simon the Zealot, and Judas the
brother of James. All of these with
one mind continued earnest in prayer,
together with Inc women, and Mary

Peters Speech
1t was on one of these days that
Peter stood up in the midst of the
brethren-the entire number of per-

said.
Brethren, it was necessary that the
Scripture should be fulfHIed-the pre-
diction. I mean, which the Holy Spirit
uttered by the lips of David, about
Judas, who acted as guide to those
who arrested Jesus. For Judas was
reckoned as one of our number, and
a share in this ministry was allotted
to him.
