ENLISTED FOR AID
District Governor Appeals for
Stamp Sale Boost,

F1fty-one Rotary Clubs throughout
Indiana are being asked to swing
into the support Of the annual tuber-
culosis Christmas seal sale, Murray
A. Auerbach, executive secretary OF
the Indiana tuberculosis Association,
announced today.
Auerbach made public here a let
ter from Arthur II. Sapp. Rotary dis
trict governor, in which Rotary Clubs
in the Indiana district are called upon
to support the sale.
In recent years Rotary Clubs
throughout Indiana have consistently
aided anti-tuberculosis work in many
ways. Several times Rotary Clubs,
IN addition to working in behalf OF
the seal sale in local counties, have
collected baskets of food. warm cloth
irg and other materials for the un-
fortunate in the community.
THE cooperation again this year
Of Rotary in Indiana means that hun
dreds Of the leading business men
in many counties will step into the
ranks of statesmen Of the Christmas
seal and health bonds this year"
Auerbach said today.

COSTLY MISTAKES
BY OSCAR SCHMIDT

II Experience is a good teacher"
then this year should see a flourish
ing period for the Saving & Loan
Association. People who have learned
a sad lesson by making unwise in
vestments In the past will naturally
turn to this institution as the safe
and sane place for their savings.
Seven and a half million dollars last
year could have gone into the building
Of homes for deserving Americans
had it not been sunk into worthless
investments. In other words twenty
five hundred families could have had
three thousand dollars apiece to-
ward the building of a home with
money which was actually thrown
away.
Another thing-the owners OF this
money by investing it in Saving &
Loan Associations would have realized
besides the safety Of their savings,
dividends amounting to four hundred
and fifty thousand dollars Just fig
ures. but they convey a hard learned
lesson.

Colorado Fat Lamb Movement.

About fifty per cent Of the lambs
on feed in Colorado this year has
moved to market, according to the re-
port issued by the Chicago and Denver
offices of the U. S. Division of Crop
and Livestock Estimates. This means
that since January 1 shipments had
amounted to about 10000 head. Since
January 1 approximately $4,000 lambs
have been added to those already on
feed at the first Of the year. With
these additional feeders the number
still in the Colorado feed lots at this
date, most of which are to go to mar
ket between now and the first Of May,
is approximately 765,000 Last year re-
ports Of carlot shipments show that
the receipts of Colorado lambs at the
six principal markets, Chicago, Omaha,
st. Joseph, ST. Louis, Kansas City and
Denver from January to April l
totaled 785,OOO. These receipts In
cluded some Implications in count due
to sheep unloaded at one market ana
afterward forwarded to another and
counted as from Colorado at each mar
ket. From this it will be noted that
the marketings are much heavier TO
date this year than last year.

American Legion Plans for Endow.
ment Fund 70 Annually Provide
Proper Attention.

The graves Of 100 American
World war heroes on foreign soil will
never be forgotten on Memorial day
by the American Legion, under the
plans for an endowment fund to be
established by the national organiza-
ton. This fund will be Of sufficient
amount to annually provide for the
permanent decoration Of the graves OF
the dead Of the World war, as long as
the Legion itself shall exist.
Shortly after the close of the war,
collection Of a million francs, approx
lmately $4,000, was made by the Paris
post Of the American Legion, but the
income from this amount has not been
found sufficient to do the necessary
work annually, so that the endowment
plan has been taken up by the national
organization and the goal set at $780,
600.
AS result Of the operation Of this
fund, American Legion representatives
will visit the graves Of the dead in SIX
different countries on Memorial day
soldier, sailor or marine is fittingly re-
membered. The government is main
tanning these graves in a proper man
ner, taking excellent care of the ceme
teries and plots, but the Legion con-
siders that its duty Is to pay direct
personal tribute to those who gave
their lives to their country. According
to information given to the Legion
there are 81, 400 graves in France and
Belgium; 488 in England; 40 in Scot
land; 40 in Ireland. One American
sailor is buried in Spain.
The fund will be raised from direct
contributions from Legion posts and
members throughout the country. The
national treasurer of the American Le-
gion is authorized to receive either
contributions of posts or private dona-
tions.
