boys work secretary of Kansas. He
was deeply impressed by the efforts
of Hall, who is now serving as ma
tional boys work secretary of the Y.
NJ. c. A. in China, and has devoted
a large portion of his time in arous-
ing interest in this work in the col
leges and high schools of Kansas.
In accordance with the plans ar
ranged by the student department of

When Fung entered the Puiying
grade school he appeared no different
10 the casual observer than the aver
age Chinese lad. He completed the
required course in three years and
that would probably have been the ex-
tent of his education if he had not
met DR.. Todd. Thru the efforts and
persuasion of Dr. Todd, he entered
Puiying high school where he fin
ished his course in three years.
While attending high school he. served
as president of the Hi-Y club for two
years. He became intensely interested
in the general work of the Y. M. c. A.
while serving in this capacity and con-
ceived the idea of doing something
for others.
Attended Canton College.
Upon the completion of his high
school course he continued his edu-
cational career attending Canton
cializing in journalism. While in
Canton he did Boy Scout work and
served as one of the boys work sec
retHries of the Canton Y. NJ. c. A.
So efficient was he that in the fall
of 1918 he sailed for Europe at the
call of service for Chinese labor bat
talions in the world war. He arrived
in England in 1918 and after a period
of training he was in Paris ready for
service before the armistice was
signed. In January. 1919, he went to
Belgium and remained there until he
came to America, landing at New
York in September, 1920
Entered WashbuPn College.
Fung finally found his way to the
home of Mrs. william Macarthur, 1871
Garfield street She is a sister of his
oRd friend DR.. Todd. Thru the efforts
of Mrs. Macarthur. he entered Wash
burn college, where he is a student at
the present time. During his attend
ance there he has made an envia Bile
record.
Among the friends Fung made while
in China attending high school and
college were: David Yui, peoples
delegate to the Washington disarma-
ment conference; George Lerrigo. a
former Topekan, brother of DR.. c. H.
LerrigO, and L. X. Hall, former state

AMERICAN LEGION NEWS

Back from the Christmas holidays,
congress is expected to enact with lit
tie delay bill for adjusted compensa-
ton to veterans of the world war.
AS matters now stand, the Fordney
and McCumber compensation meas
ures, both of which have the support
of the American Legion, are before
the house and senate committees. No
date has been fixed fora vote in either
branch of the congress.
Payment of compensation will, how
ever, officials here declare, be one Of
the first issues taken up by the
lower house upon resuming its session.
The senate is expected to begin con-
sideration of the bill after disposing of
legislation dealing with refunding of
foreign loans.
Several plans suggested for raising
money to pay compensation are pro-
voking the most discussion in congress
sional circles at present. The Legion
has made it plain that it would not
enter into the discussion as to methods
of meeting the payments.
A recent bonus bill introduced
to the house by Representative Volk
would provide payments for adjusted
compensation by means of a sales tax
estimated to yield $1,500,00 annual
ly. The measure is patterned after
the Canadian bonus law.
AnOInGE Suggestion LOT raising
money has come from Secretary Mel
lon of the treasury department, who
proposes the sale of light wines and
beer with a tax on the sale of bever-
ages. President Harding is under
stood to disapprove such a scheme,
but the house ways and means COM
n.ittee has given notice that it will
consider the plan.
General Pershing. Secretary OF the
Navy DENLY, a personal representative
of President Harding and other gov
eminent officials will attend a meet
ing to- discuss the>work of the Ameri-
can Legion for the coming year to be
held in Indianapolis January 20
and 21.
Hanford MacNider, the Legfon's
commander has called a session OF
the organizations executive commit
tee for these dates. The committee is
composed of one representative from
each state and from fifteen foreign
countries. All national officers and
state commanders and adjutants have
been invited to the meetings.
Commander MacNider's plans for

and routine business will be discussed
Reports of special and Standing COM
mittees will be received.
Representatives of the Veterans
Bureau and other government
agencies operating for the relief of ex-
service men will attend the session.

Our Youthful Days.

I'VE are only young once" you
often hear some person remark as
an excuse for hitting the pace"
True, we can be young but once,
and the pleasures of youth must be
crowded into that space of time.
But how long are we young?
Some men are old at 40, while
others are still young at 60. 1t
depends upon the pace they hit
and the manner in which they hit
it.
We can crowd lot of work and
pleasure into youth if we keep our
hearts and our minds and our
bodies clean, or we can reduce the
amount of both and shorten our
youth by resorting to reckless dissi-
patton. Your youth is your own.
1t will be prolonged or curtailed by

Here's to the Weekly!

When you hear someone speak of the
Country Weekly" you never think of
newspaper printed in the country.
Your impression is rather of a neat
little publication issued from small
shop in small town which is probably
the center of fairly large and pros
porous community.
Is that not correct?
Then why do we not call that news
paper Community Weekly" That
would be broader title and one far
more characteristic of its service. 1t
does not limit its news to items from
the country. Its service covers the
city, town, or village and surrounding
community. 1t is public utility on
small scale.
Give the weekly it's just dues for it
is always power in the community.
The large daily may carry more for
eign news and more scandal of the
day but the truly wholesome news of
the community will be found in the
community weekly
Along with its wholesomeness goes
accuracy than any daily can
possibly possess. The Community
Editor" takes the time to collect his
news personally or his friends, upon
whom he can depend, hand it to him,
thereby safeguarding its reliability.
Where will you find the big-city editor
who can afford to check each item,
large and small, for accuracy in details?
And that is the stronghold of the
weekly.
Therefore, because of its accuracy
and wholesomeness, and the thoroness
OF Its service to its community, the
publication representing your district
and town deserves the broader title of
The Community Weekly. ."-"Kink,
