AUXILIARY DOES GREAT WORK
Department of Minnesota One of the
Most Active Organizations; Mem
bership is Strong.

The department of Minnesota has
many distinctive features which mark
it as one of the leading organizations
Of the American Legion auxiliary in
social activities, welfare work, and
organization plans. The auxiliary mem
hership of the Minnesota auxiliary is
so per cent that of the Legion, and all
present efforts are being concentrated
in making that membership 100 per
cent.
A unique plan for bringing the
bachelor" posts to time, has been con-
ceived by the married posts and aux
iliaries." Their location will be broad
cast by radio all over the state of
Minnesota and the auxiliary will mo-
bilize and march upon their strong
holds, not with sword and gun, but
with the same tender devotion be-
slowed upon the boys in 1917 and 1918,
and will prove to the refractory posts
the utter futility of longer opposing
the inevitable.
The poppies sold last year by the
duA11Idl 1ACLlOOA0 WCIC
made by the hospitalized ex-service
men, under direction Of the auxiliary
committees appointed for the purpose,
at profit Of more than seven thou
disqualification committee made the
statement that the good accomplished
in lifting the morale OF these men by
giving them this work to do could not
be measured in money.
Minnesota auxiliary has a welfare
fund named for the first department
president of the auxiliary in the United
States, Doctor Helen Hughes He'll
scher of Mankato, Minnesota, who is
now serving on the national hospitali-
zation committee. This fund, amount
ing to $1,000 last year, was practically
exhausted during the year but the
committee is constantly being reim-
bursed for these expenditures.
Minnesota auxiliary is fostering an
other project, which as yet has not
been considered by any other state;
that of "Veteransville" where ex-
service men are helped to begin life
anew by being assisted in buying land
on the installment plan. The auxiliary
intends that this project shall be the
best of it's kind in the United States
and will encourage, support and assist
in every way whenever necessary.
Minnesota auxiliary is proud to be a
part of an organization, with a nation
al president who is internationally
known, because of her ability and ac-
complfshments, and who has given up
all other interests to serve the aux
iliary for one year. Theodore ROose-
welt said of Doctor Kate Waller Bar
rett: "She is one of the most useful
women in the United States"

Case for an Expert.

wife, aiding in the search and noticing
what she took to be guilty look on
the face of the family cat, pointed to
1t, and said:
There's the meat"
"Why, no. objected Swivel, that
little thing couldn't get away with
three pounds of meat. Still, let's weigh
her and find out"
They did so. The scales registered
an even three pounds.
''Yes," he admitted in puzzled tones,
