bilities of organizing a 103rd 1nfan-

ed that the Legion Is the most ex-
elusive. yet the most democratic
organization in the country. He said

biggest heart and most willing
hands.

gram was a selection by male quar-

Roger Doyle with William Luce at
the piano. An enthusiastic audience
asked for and received an encore.
DIR. J. Fred Hill president of the
Fathers Council. was called upon to
speak and the first thing he said
was that the real reason for the
celebration was because the members
of the Post wished to pay tribute
to the father of the Post, Robert
Stobie and that the fact that It was
called Fathers Council night was
because of the extreme moaesty Of
Mr.. Stobie. He gave a brief account
of Mr.. Stobie's life, telling about the
80 relatives that fought in the World
War and the enthusiasm with which
Mr.. Stobie had contributed to every
worthy cause during the war and

Christmas Cheer
Given by Red
Cross ORGANIZATION

The WatervilIe Chapter, as a unit
In the National American Red Cross.
has again this year sent its quota of
christmas kits. to cheer the boys
who are located in Porto Rico.
Last year the bags were sent to
Port Au Prince, Haiti, and the fol-
lowing letter was received from the
field director there:
my dear Secretary:
If 1t was possible for us to describe
to you the expression Of pleasure on
the races OF some eighty hundred
Marines. when Santa Claus handed
them their Red Cross Christmas kits,
you might understand in measure
how large part the ladies of your
Chapter played in making our
Christmas in the Tropics a bowling
success.
All told we received over seven
teen hundred Christmas kits from
Chapters all over the Eastern part
OF the United States. enough to give
one to every enlisted man of the
Marine Corps and Navy throughout
the whole of Haiti.
1t Is interesting to note the var
lous means OF transportations en-
ployed in getting these kits to the
men in some CT the more isolated
parts of Haiti After they were re-
ceived here at Port Au Prince. The
kits for the men stationed at Guam
tanamo, Cuba, were sent by water
Those to Cape Haitian. some two
hundred miles from Port. went by
the most direct route of all, by aero
plane. while the kits for st Michel,
little station, far up in the Haitian
hills, went first by water to the Port
s.,>
gauge railroad to the tiny village of
Emery where the railroad ends, and
the kits were loaded on Il truck
which carried them up and over the
steep mountains, and their final des-
tination.
Here at Port Au Prince, all organ
izatiOns in this vicinity joined togcth-
or at the Recreation Hall in the
Marine barracks, where at the foot
OF real honest to goodness Christ
mas tree, the Red Cross kits were
heaped until Santa Claus himself
came down the chimney to distribute
them to the waiting crowd.
We would like to thank personally
every one who made a kit for wheth-
err they realize it or not. they brought
to our boys in this far off Black Re-
public. a taste of home and Christ
mas cheer which will not soon pe
forgotten"
This year the Waterville Chapter
accepted its quota OF twenty bags
which It made and filled. These are
attractive. bright colored screaton
tags. each containing a pipe. a pack
of cards. two linen handkerchiefs. 4
face cloth and jaCk-knife.
The boys IN the Army and Navy,
who are on duty away from home.
and can not get back for Christmas
time. appreciate this link which re-
minds them that at least they are
not forgotten. They look to the Red
Cross to keep unbroken this connec-
ton with home, both at this time.
a,;t. Mt all other times during their
Sc, vice, and the Red Cross Will not
fail them. This hit Of Christmas
cheer which the Red Cross brings
them. Is only one of the many SER
vices which 1t offers to the boys.
