A special train will arrive in the

o'clock from Endion and points
along the line having on board the
Transportation Brotherhood of the
Duluth & Iron Range who will hold
their Fourth Annual Picnic at
Sandy Point. The train will gather
up all the employees and their fam
lilies along the line and the program
as arranged promises to entertain
the party from the time of their
arrival to their departure at
O'Clock in the evening.
Those attending are requested to
bring their lunch baskets and swim
ming suits. Coffee, cream, pop and

festivities.

hold especially firm that new sector
of the line created by me war and
its orphans.
There will always remain after
home restoration and adoption have
been provided for many children, a
group of orphans unsuitable for
adoption because of physical or men,
tai inferiority or unattractiveness.
Those are the children whom "no-
body wants. The American Lee
gion wants them. For this group
there may be required permanent
care. They shall have it.
The Legion will build no large
orphan homes or asylums. A series
of cottage type homes, called
American Legion billets, is being
provided for the temporary abiding
places of children needing them.
These cottage groups afford a FAM
lily life in each for about nine
youngsters under a house mother.
No schools are established, the child
rem attending nearby public schools
with other children of the COM
munity.
The Practical Problem.
Americas duty to the disabled
and the war orphan is clear. OF
Americas wholeheartei intent to
meet that duty there can be no
doubt. The American Legion ac-
cepts the responsibility for the task
after a full demonstration of it's
peculiar fitness both of the heart
and of the hand. H. program
meets the approval of serious,
thoughtful people everywhere. 1t is
the right program, and happily it
is also the practical, economical
program. 1t is right to restore the
disabled man to health, self-con-
fidence and independence. 1t is
vastly less costly program than to
support him permanently as a help
les, Incompetent charge upon soci-
ETY.. 1t is right to give every help
less and homeless child the help
that will provide for :. a proper
home. 1t is far less costly than to
let that child grow up untutored
and unfit, into a life Of weakness,
disease, vice, pauperism or crime
More than 90 per cent. Of crime Is
the result of neglected childhood.
In cold dollars and cents the Ameri-
can public saves several thousand
dollars every time child is divert
ed from squalor, ignorance and mis-
cry into the way Of decent home
life, education and character build
ing. 1t is cheaper to save the
child than to later confine the adult.
The great life work of The
American Legion for the disabled
and the children, for which it re-
quires an endowment backing of
five million dollars, would be nee
essary, right and just if it were to
cost five hundred million. If it is
neglected it will throw back upon
the government or upon public or
private resources a vastly greater
task and vastly greater cost. The
Legion, with its especial duty to its
comrades, would do the job at any
cost Finding it practical to sus-
tain this nationwide program on
the income of a relatively small en-
dowment, it asks for the prompt
provision of that endowment dur
ing the coming few months. It
feels confident that it need not beg
for this need, but that it can ask it
knowing that all who give will do
so gladly and proudly, thankful for
the privilege of sharing this re-
sponsibility to those whose sacrifice
to their country was beyond money
and beyond price.
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1925-08-14

There rests with The American
Legion, in conjunction with govern
mental agencies, the major RESPONSE
bility for the care and cure of the
disabled men of the United States
forces in the World War, and for
the proper care, upbringing and
education of the orphaned children
of those who gave their lives in
battle
This trust, imposed upon the Le-
gion when it was chartered by
Congress, September 16, 1919, was
invited by the founders of the Le-
gion, and is welcomed by every
member of the Legion. President
Coolidge in his message to Con-
gress, December, 1924, expressed
his confidence in The American Lee
gion as the chief and most repre-
sentative organization of service
men of the World War. The duty
imposed by Congress, the confidence
expressed by the President, and the
purpose deep rooted in the heart of
ivery service man, have been met
by a national organization of more
than 1900 posts locates in prac-
tically every city and town in the
nation. The active, working mem
bership of the Legion today equals
in numbers the total of mature, eff
.fective male population of the
United States over which George
Washington was President, and
which hewed out nation upon a
raw continent. Its power for good
Is but beginning to be understood.
That power is ANONYMOUSLY en-
HANGED by the American Legion
Auxiliary with 6,4O0 Units and a
membership exceeding two hundred
thousand women.
All America Helps.
During the first six Years of re-
construction which have followed
the World War the very large re-
sponsibility for the disabled and the
orphans has not been met by the
Legion without assistance from
other Americans. 1t could not have
been met without help, and it
should not. The duty is one shared
by every citizen, and claimed as
the direct privilege of the Legion
because the comrades of those who
gave most to their country are
peculiarly equipped to perform this
service
The Legion has used freely it's
own financial resources, and has had
from time to time the gifts of
groups and individuals. At times
it has borrowed money. At times
it has seemed impossible to see the
way clear for a week or a month
ahead. The work has gone for
ward, but its financing can fairly be
described only as ''hani to mouth.
Very clearly such a policy is
neither adequate, just, nor econom-
zeal. Americas duty the dis
abled and the orphans is only
equalled by Americas willingness
to fulfill this duty to the utmost.
To that end nothing can be left to
chance.
In realization of this fact, as
shown by experience, The American
Legion is raising, during the early
part of 1925, an endowment fund
of five million dollars, of which the
income ESTIMATED ut 1925, 700,
yearly will guarantee a solid fin
ancial basis in perpetuity for the
programs of disabled mems rehab-

ELY WINS HARD
CAME At VIRGINIA.
VIRGINIA PEOPLE CLAIM THE
BEST GAME OF THE SEA-
SON SUNDAY-HARD
FOUGHT.

Outside of a few inexpensive err
rors, Sundays game at Virginia
was an exhibition of base ball well
worth seeing-and 1t must be said
that large crowd of Ely people
did see it in conjunction with a
large attendance Iron sIlg.nIa and
Eveleth.
Shoulder, while hit rather hard
at times, was very effective in the
pinches and Tommy Lawrence and
Kid Anderson took Kindly to the
offerings of Canton as did the
others of the team, eleven hits be-
ing charged against the Virginia
pitcher.
Next Sunday in connection with
the railroad picnic at Sandy Point,
the Ely team VIII stage a swat-fest
with Hibbing. The Invaders are
laying great stress on the work of
Repola, the effective young hurler of
the Richest Village. Repola has
been going big but we feel that Ely
will fathom his hard or es for sew
eral fathoms. The Virginia Daily
Enterprise in accounting Sundays
game had the following:
Although losing by a 8 to Z
score to the fast Ely nine, the Vir-
ginia Ore Diggers played the incest
game of the season yesterday after
noon at Oliver Park and more than
satisfied the comparatively large
number of fans who answered the
S. o. S. call for support last week.
"The contest proved smuggling
tussle, with the visitors having the
ndrn in ho -
a one run lead in the second inning
Ely was tied and passed in the third.
From then until the seventh it was
anybody's game, with first one team
in the lead and then the other.
"Severa spectacular double plays
for Virginia added to the spice of
the contest.
Ely garnered II hits off of Wolfe
Canton while the local batsmen
nearly equalled this total with 10
off Shoulder. Both teams copied
several two and three baggers.
"A pretty combination double.
Vellella to Anthony to Hare, in the
first of the eighth helped to retire
Ely during a dangerous period. and
a repetition Of the play, Kent to
Anthony to Hare, sent the Vermilion
men to the field after the first of
the ninth
"Exdspt for the fourth and fifth
innings, when the visitors brought
in three and four runs. respectively,
Wolfe Canton had things well in
hand and the Virginia fielders out
played their rivals. One score in
the second and another in the sew
enth completed the scoring for Ely.
Virginia made two runs in the
third, one in the fourth and two in
each, the fifth and seventh.
"The spirit and dash of the local
tam has shown great Improvement
and the good crowd in the grand
stand added considerable.
