LEGION AUXILIARY
PACKING CHRISTMAS
BOXES FOR SOLDIERS

The preparation of the Christmas
boxes for the sick, wounded, and
, disabled veterans of the World War,
who are in the local hospitals and
at the National Home, will be under
the direction of the ladies of the
James Fitzgerald Post Auxiliary, and
!, the president, Miss Johanna Murray
announced last evening that from
Saturday afternoon at , o'clock on
through the succeeding days. there
will be someone on duty at the
American Legion hall to receive con-
tributiOns of articles or money for
their purchase for these boxes.
The James Fitzgerald post, as on
, previous years has contributed to a
fund for carrying out of this work
for their unfortunate buddieS in the
Augusta General hospital, the State
hospital, and in the Home hospital
, at Togus. The work of preparing the
packages is to be handled entirely
by the women's auxiliary, and a
committee of Legionaires and Auxil-
larry members will distribute the
boxes for Christmas.
That this little way of remember
ing their comrades is appreciated is
.. evidenced by an incident related by
Major Keith Ryan, recently appoint
e0 Governor or the Nat1Onal Home
: at Togus. Major Ryan told of one
| unfortunate veteran, who because of
a wound in his spine, must lie on his
back on the hospital cot. never more
to move his body and lower limbs.
This chap is q particularly CHEEKY
Individual in the ward in spite of his
misfortune. He gets exercise for his
| arms and shoulders by drawing him
self up to a bar which hangs over
the head of his bed. Major Ryan in
conversation with this boy one day,
suggested that there might be some
thing which he wanted, and the SOL
| der replied, There is an Ameican
Legion post here at the Home and
another one in Augusta, whose men,
bers remember me and are my
friends, and I shall never want for
anything so long as l live
Toilet articles, books, little appli-
anceS for the sick room, candy, fruit,
cigars. cigarettes, pipes, tobacco. and
similar articles. such as the home
folks sent to the boys while they
were in service in France and in the
training camps and on shipboard
| during the war days of 1917. 1918

eS. and all contributions from citi-
zens interested will be received at

Sonia Much Worry

Berlin. Nov. BOA. p. by Mail)-
Sonia Smilanskia used to be a care
free Russian dancer in the cabarets of
the central European capitals. 1t
was a sad day for the beautiful ar
fist when she came to Berlin to fill an
engagement in one of the big variety
theatres last month.
She made The acquaintance in Ber-
lin of a Khirghese, Serge Chanisgas-
chvilli, who protested such admira-
ton for Sonia that he proposed buy
ing, her O silk gown and accompanied
her to one of the city's leading silk
shops.
While Sonia was looking over the
various patterns, her cavalier
slipped a bolt of silk into great
pocket especially made in the lining
of his overcoat. Unfortunately for
the Khirrhese the silk house had
that detectives who were not in sight
could watch the customers at the silk
counter.
Sonia and her. "cavaIier" were es-
corted into the managerial officers
and taken to Jail after the silk had
been recovered. The girl protested
her innocence, but was locked up and
held for trial.
1t was discovered that the Khirg-
hese had been locked up in Austria
and Italy for similar thefts Conse-
uuently. when he was arraigned for
sentence, the judge sent him to prison
for five years. The judge accepted
the fearful Russian girls statement
that she had no knowledge of the
character of the man she was asso-
ciating with, but after announcing
her release he urged her in future to
be more careful in selecting her male
companions
Sonia departed to learn that her
suueamish managers had cancelled
all her contracts.
