ELKS LEGION FUND
DRIVE FOR $4,000
IS ARRANGED

After careful consideration as to the
need for the money and what the
money will be used for and will accom-
plish, the FL Centre Elks are enthusias-
tically whipping their plans into shape
for their whirlwind campaign this
week to raise $4,000 for clearing off
the indebtedness of the local American
Legion post.
The drive will begin at the chamber
of commerce lunch in the Barbara
Worth hotel Wednesday noon March
90. The chamber has turned over the
lunch, for the discussion of this drive,
and all Elks and Legion men have been
especially invited.
The fact that this drive is not going
to be an "annual affair." and that it
will not have to be repeated was en-
phasized by members of the Elks com
mittec interviewed this morning. The
$4,000 represents indebtedness incurred
in equipping the Legion club rooms
The current expenses and the maintain
ance are covered each month bO the
canteen and by the legiOnaries them
selves without any deficit.
:. Any discussion as to the WOrthiness
of the cause will be unnecessary in the
drive, committee members say. 1t viii

on strong footing, for there are few
cities in America, where thisis not being
done or has not already been done.
The important part that the legion
plays in helping out needy ex-soldiers
and in solving the general local en-
poyment problem was mentioned.

helping ex:service men who drift in

HOOVER IS GUEST AT BANQUET
"DUST?" SAYS HOOVER
"MY, NO;

Clouds of dust, rolled up by the
long motor caravan, that followed
Herbert Hoover S machine from Nj
land to Calexico and back to Ell
Centre, sifted into the eyes and
clothes of the Hoover welcomers.
When the party arrived at the Bar
bara Worth, however, MIR. Hoover
stepped out smiling cordially and
in high good humor. There was no
dust on his machine; no dust in his
eyes. Governor Campbell, dabbing
his eyes with dusty handkerchief
strolled up to the secretary Of COM
merce dismally.
''How did you do it?" he asked.
"Not a fleck Of dust on you any

''I was in the front machine
the secretary answered.
''How thoughtless of the COM

"They should have had you in the

Her words have almost raised an

croft Fowler invented a new internal

All patent agents agree that women

matters. But, as experts point out,
more often than not, their husbands
manage the business and appropriate
the credit!
