Marching With The Legion

When the Rev. Earl A. BIacl1man, new national chaplain of the Ameri- can Legion, returned from France to his church in Chanute. Kas., the first thing he did was to go to a dance. His congregation howled wig 1 orously. So he resigned and went l fishing for two weeks. When he came back the people of. the church had | changed their minds and refused to ! accept his resignation. MT. Black l man mounted the pulpit, pounded the 1 bigotry of the church in general and | then went down to the baseme cit and l started class in pugilism among the | boys of his Sunday school. | A challenge to box a match with I and A. E. F. chaplain of his weight | was one of the sermons issued by | MT. Blackman in France. He was | imme ediately dubbed "the fighting parson.'' On this side of the water | he fights the Blue. flaws. People l will always dance." he says. Its q | fundamental instinct" He contends l that Blue laws cheapen religion in
 the minds of the people and says the only reason he hasn't held dances in \ his church is because there was not room enough He says it is wrong l to prohibit people from doing any | specific thing That's why he goes | fishing.
 As a boy MT. Blackman did not | know he was bound for the minis | try. He did everything from firing | a locomotive to selling automobiles. A nationwide census of ex-sol- | diers will be taken by the American | Legion to discover which form of l compensation is desired in each in | diyidual case.

London, March 11.-(Specfal)- Has England's first royad-plebian Hove match" been split on the rocks of marital difficulties?
 That's the question Londoners are asking themselves today.
 And if Dan Cupid was unable to pilot the matrimonial barque of the former Princess Patricia of Con- naught and Commander Ramsay of the royal navy through the troubled seas of life will King George and Queen Mary with all their royal power, succeed where he fatled?
 The engagement and wedding of Princess Pat to the comm oner, a commander in the kings navee and without title, was of double inter est to Great Britain because of the adoration the average Britisher held for the princess. ''If Princess Pat ever marries it will be for love and love alone. they said when the whole world discussed rumors now and then regarding the dictates of her heart.

There is no incentive to striving in all the world like that of the faith and loyalty of a steadfast friend
 Each of us has to make our own fight for success. Each of us must "dree his adn weird" Each Of us must have the courage to face ob- s55acles and to overcome them-to pick up our bruised bodies and bat tered. souls and go at the strife anew even if defeat has come once. twice and again.
 But nothing keeps up the courage like the encouragement of fr1end- ship. Nothing tides over the black hours like the faith and devotion of love.
 Let me quote you q bit from a let ter which came to me today.

With the Women of Today

The English who are focIzing to this country are not all lecturers and
 authors. Miss Fife Bentham, who recently arrived in New York city,
 has come over to study American institutional methods. She is head of the Dr. Barnardo Orphanages in England, which have cared for and educated 60.oo0 children in the past 60 years. The instotution, which is international in it's scope. IS at pres lent caring for over 5000 girls and boys.
 Miss. Bentham may give a few lectures on her work in England. but her main object in visiting this coun- try is to Investigate American well fare methods.
 The booking offices of American lyceum circuits. Chatauqua and oth-
 CTS, are being swarmed by British
 au-istocrats who seek lectureN dates
 for American tours such as Margot
 Asquith is making. Other ladies of the English peerage. or widows or wives of great commoners,' are giv- ing talks on all manner of subjects at fashionable hotels and clubs. Statistics
 Official records of wemen's pro- fessionaI work in Holland show aa- together four civil engineers. two architectural, five electrical and one mechanical, qua1if1d women enga- neers.
 Recent budget studies have estab- lished the cost of living for a woman | in Texas at STATS a week. a woman in washington state at s22.19 q week l and a woman in North Dakota at 1 s16s65 week.

Nh dear Lansing: Really. ] think
Harding Is doing well, or rather that
the whole Administration is being
supported well by the country. Oh.
these Republicans have the art of gov
erning, and we do so much better at
talking. No one knows just what his
foreign policy is, but something will
work through that will satisfy very
tired people. There seem to be COM
paratively few out of work now. We
are not out of the woods yet. But the
Lord will take care of them. He may
even keep Johnson from boiling Har-
ding. They will temporize through;
that's my guess.
Good English the people don't know
Ideality they have had enough of for
time. They just want to get down
to brass tacks and make some money,
so that the Mrs. can have more new
dresses. ! do earnestly wish them luck
God gave us the great day and you
and 1, anyway, are not ashamed of the
parts we played. In fact. the party
loorned pretty large those days-the
whole country breathed lungfuls and
felt heroic. We shall not look upon
such another time nor act for a peo-
pie so nobly inspired. LANE. q.
ROCHESTER, Mimi, May 2, 1921.
The country seems to be liking Har-
ding and his Cabinet more and more.
They do have a faculty for getting
things done. those Republicans, and
they are subjected to so little criti-
cism. 1t is really good to see them do
their work and get away with things
so neatly.
