The Legion Grows
Unusual Gains

Recent reports from the naCOndl
headquarters Of the American Legion
indicate that this splendid organiza-
ton is making unusual gains in
membership.
One recalls that the Legion was
born in Paris as the result. Of the
spontaneous demand Of all veterans
for some expression in peace of those
ideals for which they fought in the
World War.
The creation Of the Legion was in
the hands Of nearly 1000 men who
met in Paris informally in March,
1919. They came from every walk in
life, every section Of the country:
all groups, creeds and classes. Mil
ton J. Foreman, of Chicago, presid-
ed. There the Legion was named
and its principles first voiced. A
committee was named to cooperate
with those who were in the United
States and a joint committee was
formed in American under the lead
ership of Henry D. Lindsey, Of Dali
las. Tex, at a national caucus in St.
Louis. May. 1919.
The American Legion early took
the leadership in point Of numbers
Of all other societies Of war fighters
because Of the sound principles en-
bodied in its constitution and has re-
tanned this advantage through a
record Of actual accomplishment in
behalf OF the nation as we'll as vet
Grams during the brief period Of it's
existence.
To war fighters the Legion offers
the feeling Of comradeship. Of cheer
full reunions with those who served
together in camp and on battlefield
Through its influence adequate relief
OF disabled comrades has been
achieved. The organization was in
strumental in obtaining adjustment
OF compensation Of those who fought
to those who remained at home. An
ticipating a critical situation that
would otherwise arise in a few years,
the Legion is now taking steps to
provide for the orphans OF fallen
heroes.
Ihe Leglon's membership is now
almost one million. Its national con-
ventions have been attended by as
many as $4,000 persons who have
represented its 1900 posts in all
parts of the world. Legionnaires are
Climbing to posts of importance in
government, business and profess
sional affairs as the old leaders die
or TAIL to remain in contact with the
more modern current OF life.
The American people feel that this
young organization is a worthy sue
cessor to the Grand Army Of the Re-
public and United Confederate Vet
Grams, for Its principles are primarily
those of Americanism and patriotism
"a broad. unfettered type Of patri.
otism that would maintain funda.
mental American institutions un-
changed except as to their applica-
ton to fit modern economic and So
cial conditions.

FRIGID WATERS
 IN THE TROPICS
The Hulnbolt Current ReSpon,
 Sible for This

Washington. D, C. May lt--The Humboldt, or Peruvian, Current which has bathed the tropical desert coast of Peru with icy waters and SO has given rise to numerous olim- alto psradoxes, Is reported 10 he changing it's course, working havoc to animal life. A steamer captain recently passing up the coast re- ports that he encountered thousands of dead birds and fish in the sea. Other reports state that regions rainless for years are having heavy rains and that rivers have formed almost over night in the one.time parched desert.
 A bulletin from the Washington, n. C. headquarters of the National Geographic Society quotes a com munication to the society from F. F. Coker telling how Peru's cold current has shaped conditions along the coast.
 "The Humboldt Current, supple mented no doubt by the upturning of cold bottom waters, maintains its Aeady course for thousands of miles, from icy Antarctic attitudes to the Equator" says the bulletin. Thus 1t Is that tropical shores are bathed by cold ocean waters, and. with this fundamental contrast, the stage is set for an array of phenom- ena not fully paralleled in any other part of the world.
 Cold Current Has Prevented Rain
 "Only two events in that interest ing series command our present st- tention. These are the absence of rainfall and the consequent accumu. lation, through centuries untold, ot a mine Of wealth which might have been dissipated hy q few sea sons of rain.

Into which may be mixed and incorporated--in greater or less pro portion-a variety of other sub stances, such as the eggs and bodie' of birds and the deposits and thu bodies of sealions. It may be found mixed with gravel and sand in yer, small proportion or sometimes 10 al extent rendering it unprofitahIa t' extract.
