TEACHERS TOLD
BY LEGISLATURE

A new law of Arizona requires (1)
that all persons teaching in the State
must "pass a satisfactory examina-
ton upon the provisions and prinei-
pies of the Constitution of the United
States" and (2) that no student in
the schools and colleges of Arizona
"shall receive a certificate Of gradua-
ton without previously passing q
satisfactory examination upon the
provisions and principles of the
United States Constitution.
That goes to the foundation of ma
tional life and is an insurance policy
on the future of the United States.
Now 80 of the 48 states require
Constitutional instruction.
As over 4,800,000 votes were cast
in the last election against the judi
cial system set up by George Wash
ington and his associates, it is time
that the sovereign American citizen
be taught.
The teacher and the pupil now have
at hand a book explaining the origin
and the application Of 1877 clauses OF
the Constitution of the United States

language.
lust adopted by the SchoaI Book
Commission OF Kansas in pursuance
of similar new law.
Says Jno. Garland Pollard, College
of William and Mary:
'I consider it the best book for
school uses | have ever seen.
You have rendered the country q
great service in issuing this book"
Chief Justice JhDnston, Kansas:
whether or not it was especially
designed for use in high schools and
colleges it is admirably adapted to
such use and when its merits have
been brought to the attention of
teachers / predict that it will be gen
orally used as text book in the study
of our organic law and of civil gov
ernment"
Philadelphia Public Ledger:
The only regret is that he did not
take more space and use more inci=
dents showing the interpretations of
the Constitution, even at the risk OF
making book three times as thick
as he did,"
This book had eight printings in a
year and half, and has been listed
among the six best sellers of non-fic-
tion.

generously to the fund.

| Most of us are absorbed in our
routine duties, to the extent that we
rarely think of those poor disabled
veterans who gave their all in the in
-terest of this country, which we are
proud to proclaim as our very own,
and to which we are all devoted.
1t is human nature to forget such
things, but now comes the American
Legion to remind us of those whom we
should not forget; of those to whom
we are so deeply indebted. We are
asked to show our appreciation in a
practical way to those disabled vet
erans and to their orphaned children,
by contributing to the American Le-
! gion endowment fund, to the end that
the Legion may find good homes for
the orphans of those who died on the
field of honor and to cooperate with
the government in their rehabilitation
service, which consists chiefly in
training the partially recovered vet
Grams for new yocations in life where
their conditions will not permit them
to follow their previous occupations.
1t requires but moments reflec-
tiol to appreciate the significance,
the Justice, the grandeur of this move
ment We are impressed with the un-
selfishness and humanity on the part
Of the Legion which prompted this
move. Let US do our part cheerfully
and generously, and let us feel in so
doing that it is distinct privilege
and honor
As stated, the fund now being
raised for this purpose is $5,000,-
600. The interest only, or about
s225,000 a year, will be expended. Of
this amount one-half will be appro-
priated for rehabilitation; the bal
ance for child welfare.
Arizona's quota of this fund is only
$4,000, and it is the plan of the
Legion to start their drive for this
amount on the 9Th day of June and
assisting the Legion in this campaign
will be a committee of representative
citizens. The committee will be ap-
pointed during the week.
Let US be liberal in this opportunity
to express our appreciation of the
services of those who gave the most

BISBEE FIRST OVER
TOP FOR THE LEGION

First over the top of all communi-
. ties in Arizona in the American Le-
gion's endowment fund campaign is
the honor claimed by Bisbee, which
has oversubscribed its quota of $4,000
"a full thirty days in advance of June
s, the date set for formal opening of
the canvass.
Announcement that Bisbee had all
ready obtained its share toward the
national endowment fund of $5,000,-
600, the income from which is to be
used for the care and cure of dis
abled service men and for the 10000
orphans Of American soldiers in this
country, has aroused Legion campaign
workers throughout the state to a
high pitch of enthusiasm, according
to reports received here from state
headquarters of the Legion at Phee-
nix, and there is keen rivalry as to
which community shall be the next
one to add its name to the honor roll.
Tle, campaign In Bisbee was in
charge of Col. A. ]. Dougherty, COM
nander of the Bisbee post of the Le-
gion, and Jesse Yoakum, chairman of
the local committee, who have been
warmly congratulated by State
Chairman Robert E. Tally and other
leaders in the Legion's campaign.
The fact that Bisbee has filled its
quota does not mean however that eff
forts locally will be discontinued, as
contributions will continue to be re-
ceived. Local workers are confident
that when the campaign is concluded
Bisbee will show the largest percent
age of over-subscription of any com
munity in Arizona in addition to hav-
ing won the distinction of being the
first in the state to raise its quota.

AIMS AND PURPOSES OF
THE AMERICAN LEGION
ENDOWMENT DRIVE

There are in this country today
$4,000 orphans of soldiers who died
in their country's service or as the
result of injuries received or diseases
contracted while helping to uphold
those principles to which we as ma
tion were proud TO subscribe.
The government hospitals are
crowded with ex-service men, many
of whom are crippled and manned or
suffering from shell shock, while
and other dread diseases.
The American Legion, when, even
though its existence has been COM
paratively short, already has behind
it a splendid record of accomplish
ment, has assumed the burden of Sc
curing good homes fer every one of
the $4,000 soldiers orphans. In adj
dition, it is unceasing in its efforts TO
assist the government in the care of
the disabled veterans.
Almost six and one-half years have
passed since the ending of the great
World war, yet casualties directly re-
sulting from war wounds and disabili-
ties continue at the rate of fourteen
per day or five thousand per year.
The United States government Is
most generous in the care and treat
ment of disabled veterans 1t is
spending hundreds of millions of dol
lars for veterans relief. The law pro-
vides certain relief for men who were
disabled in war service, but it must
be administered without deviation
from it's terms. There are many cases
that do not come within the letter of
the law, and were it not for the.
Legion's aid in establishing the proof
of such claims, undue delays and
hardships would result Virtually all
legislation relating to veterans re-
lief has been initiated by the Legion,
whose activities in behalf of their
needy comrades never cease.
Of the hospital cases many result
in permanent cure; some result in
partial recovery; others result in
death. Those who are permanently
cured are able to resume their former
occupations. Many of those partially
cured require rehabilitation and it is
with this class and with the death
cases that the government and the
American Legion are chiefly con-
cerned.
ne Legion whose posts are scat
tered throughout the length and
breadth of the land, is able to rem
der most effective service to disabled
veterans, and to give that close per-
sonal contact which, with kind words
of encouragement, means so much to
them.
The results Of the services which it
has rendered have been so gratifying
that the Legion has decided to organ
ize along permanent and more sys-
tematic lines. The financing to date
has been largely by Legionnaires and
often at a considerable sacrifice. 1t
is therefore planned to provide an en-
dowment fund of S5,000,000, the in
terest from which will be used b.
the Legion in their rehabilitation and
child welfare program and, in view Of
the national benefits, the American
public will be asked to contribute
