What All Sing Ching Says.

'The American Legion, which is
composed of men and women who
enlisted for the defense of our
countries during the war, stands for
unity, democracy, peace and service
to God and our country" said All
Sing Ching, fourteen year old Chin
csc boy of Eva Oahu, Hawaii, win
ner of the American Legion's ma
tional essay contest on How The
American Legion May Best Serve
The Nation.
'The slogan of our country is
IN UNION THERE is STRENGTH
and it is because of this unity our
country is strong. But during the
world war we found we faced IN
ternal as well as external enemies.
Bolshevism, communism and anarchy
are as real enemies as any we had
to fight overseas, and much harder
to conquer.
1.-The American Legion can do a
wonderful service to the country
by encouraging a spirit of unity and
cooperation and by teaching for
eigners who come to the United
States, how to live under repub-
lican form of government-helping
them to understand that ours is A
GOVERNMENT OF THE PEOPLE,
BY THE PEOPLE, FOR THE
PEOPLE, and that it shall not per-
ish from the earth.
MANY foreigners come from
countries where they have been OPP
pressed and they do not understand
the word LIBERTY but think it is
a license to commit crimes. These
people must be. taught, and the
American Legion can aid in doing
this. Then too, the world war
taught us that many of our own
citizens were uneducated and that
not nearly enough money was be-
ing spent for schools. Here is a
great work for the American Lee
gion, to see that every child in the
United States has a chance to be
educated. What we want in our
nation we must put into our schools
so the need for good schools and
well trained teachers is very great.
For those who cannot attend
during working hours, night schools
must be provided to help educate
them, and those who wish to be-
come good citizens. The American
Legion is on the side of education
and will make every effort to see
that the schools of the United States
rank first in the whole world and
that every citizen will have an OPP
portunity to learn. The American
Legion can also aid by the fostering
and encouraging peace and good
will among the nations and by
standing for a fair deal between
large and small nations, allowing
the small nations to decide for
themselves how they shall be gov
erned.
During the war many of our
soldiers were wounded and returned |
home suffering from shell shock,
sick and unable to care for them |
selves. They fought in a great |
cause and deserve we'll of their |
country and comrades. The Ameri- |
can Legion can give these returned |
veterans aid and comfort, and after |
they have sufficiently recovered help |
them to become self-sustaining. |
Many of these veterans will be un-
able to follow the same occupation |
that they did before the war, but |
some kind of work can be found |
for them to do. The American

Distinguished Visitor.

1t was the bishop bold of colonial
see. and In the course of his episco-
pal visitation he arrived at an up-
country farm, many miles from any
where, the proprietor of which was
Sery proud of his knowledge of the
world and had instructed his wife to
be sure and call the visitor Lord"
whenever she addressed him. The
good wife was more generous-minded
than her husband and when dinner

Twenty YEARS AGO|
Taken from The Ely Miner Of
the same date in 1903.

Nothing new has developed IN
the political line this week over
last more than that discussion is
the order. So far there is being
more interest manifest than at this
time before previous elections. The
prospects are that there will be no
dearth of candidates as the names
at present being whispered around
tickets. The scarcity of martyrs
people at $40 year, as aldermen,
is this year as noticeable as at all
previous elections. The prospects
are however, that the new charter
will become law before the new
city council assumes its functions
and $50 will be the munificient sal
airy then distributed to the alder
men and mayor alike. No new
names have shown up since our
last issue with the exception of one
or two who do not care to be men,
toned just yet. This preference of
theirs cuts little figure, however,
and next week we will try and col
lect all the names for publication.
A very pleasant party enjoyed
themselves at the residence of Mr..
and Mrs. Bedford at the Zenith
Tuesday evening. Dancing was the
feature of the evening, for which
Spooner's orchestra furnished the
music.
Mr.. and Mrs. Harry Chinn enter
tanned at cards Tuesday evening
and very good time was had. r.
Polkinghorne and Mrs. r. Polking-
horne won the ladies' and gents
head prizes and Miss Elda and Mr..

Miss Marion Newman has been
removed from the Eisenach resi-
dence to the Shipman hospital. Miss
Bartlett, trained nurse, arrived
from Duluth Tuesday to attend
Miss Newman who is seriously i'll
with typhoid fever.

Tampico, Mexico's great oil port, is

the Gulf of Mexico. and visitors find
a choice assortment Of vigorous and
enterprising mosquitoes; but worse
still are the myriads of flies, which ex-
hibit uncanny intelligence. Melted
doors on the oil tanks attract them in
thousands, and Immediately portal is
open they fly in, to scent the where
abouts of delicacies with the initiative
OF a prohibition officer. During rain
the air Is unusually damp and mala-
rious, and In dry weather something
approaching sandstone of the Great
Sahara can be enjoyed. Americans
working In the oil fields at Tampico
earn liberal wages, which most of them
feel they thoroughly deserve.
