LIFE IS GOOD

Each morning when leave my
hive | render thanks that I'm alive
for life is surely sweet; and | enjoy
each passing day, though | am fat
and old and gray, and have rheuma-
dawns, I've. gazed upon the dewy
lawns since Hector was pup; and
each new morning has its charm !;
| seek the summit of my farm to
watch the sun come up. Each
morning when | leave my coop
give a loud, exultant whoop, and
speak the name of Heck; | wave
my hat and cry "Hurroo," and
dance around among the dew, SO
glad I'm still on deck. This world
is not a vale of tears, it is the
choicest of the spheres, it's in a
class alone; and I've but little use
for gents who jar the welkin with
laments, who hand out sigh and
groan. Each morning when ] leave
my shack. | say. There's nothing
out of whack, the world is fine
and fair: it never seems to me a
wreck, though have boils upon my
neck, and falling of the hair" If
any man is prone to think that
this bright world is on the blink
he ought to emigrate; he ought to
chase himself to Mars or try to
find some tinhorn stars that well,
come such skate sit in my en-
broidered robe, and | indorse this
good old globe on which I've lived
so long; its folks are worth their
weight in gold. and hearts are
warm. though feet be cold, and
life's grand sweet song.

Must Have Approval.

There is a proper regulation cover
ing the situation in force at the pres
ent time I'm the District of Columbia.
And for a number of years il has been
generally understood that the APP
proYal of any project looking to the
raising of any considerable sum of
money for any purpose by any post of
the American Legion should first have
the approval of the proper department
officials.
1T has been the accepted policy in
the American Legion TO discourage
/ any Embarrassing effort where private
individuals were to profit. And very
generally this policy has been adhered
to. The result is that throughout the
United States. although but five years
have passed since the world war and
the establishment of that organiza-
ton, local posts are. today housed in
substantial clubhouSeS from which
radiate into the affairs of the respec-
tive communities that they adorn a
wholesome influence.
Interested In Project.
The project of the Vincent b
Costello Post of obtaining such a
headquarters for its membership is
one that should appeal to any per-
son who is interested in the activi-
/ ties of the men and women who
went into their country's uniform in
the world war, and the officials of
| this department are interested in
that project and hope for it's realiza-
tion.
! "At the present time it is true that
the matter is under discussion. The
! steps thought proper To fully protect
the interests of the general public in
/! Washington and the interests of the
Vincent b. Costello Post, and, last,
| but not least. the good name of the
American Legion itself. are being
: taken.
! Posts Independent.
1T should he borne in mind that
! each American Legion post is within
! very broad limitations an independ
ent organization. Its members are
not expected TO engage in efforts
! that are contrary to legion prin-
ciples and doctrines. 1t is entirely
! possible for the higher authorities
| in the department organization and
in the national headquarters to take
the proper disciplinary action should
this step become necessary.
In the present instance every ei :
fort is being made to effect an ad-
justment which Will not harm the
ultimate success of the movement by
the Vincent B. Costello Post to OBJ

gion in the District of Columbia, anC

class of merchandise which he has a
perfect right to market to advantage.
The band is not composed altogether
of owners of business houses. The
personnel of the band is largely clerks
and other salary workers. To main
tain their musical standards calls for
long periods OF rehearsal and more or
less application over period of years.
