THE LEGION To- SERVE

It sometimes seems that France is
resolved to misunderstood whatever
we may do, since she has taken to
pickering over the debt which she
owes us. We might almost con-
clude that the French soldiers had
forgotten any fellow feeling they
may have entertained for our dough-
boys. The warmth Of the invitation
they extend to the American Legion
to hold it's next annual convention in
Paris happily prevents such a con-
clusion.
And, by the way, the Legion has
just held a glorious convention at
Philadelphia and there was evil
dence of much enthusiasm over the
receipt of this invitation. a manifest
desire and purpose once more to re-
visit the scene they left behind in
France eight years ago. Likewise
manifest a resolve to continue to
serve.
The men of the Legion are older,
more mature, more involved in the
cares of living than when they set
out on the Great Adventure, but evil
IDENTIFY underneath it all there is
place In their hearts for cherishing
old relationships. And nowhere in
all their hearts may be found de-
sire to deprive their old-time ally of
any of that which may belong to
him. We wish that every Legion
naire might, before his visit to
France, come to a clear understand
ing of the American attitude re-
specting the debt, one that he in
turn might make clear to his former
brother-in- arms, who, we feel sure,
would be disposed to listen with re-
spect. The Legion expedition to
France next year should bring valu-
able relief to French misapprehen-
sion.
And this convention at Phila-
dephia reminds us that there are
many ways, other than improving
relations with our Allies, in which
the Legion is able to serve this coun-
try for years to come. We recall
that which the Grand Army of the
Republic was enabled to do over the
half century following the muster
ing out of the Civil War veterans.
We read with pride the refusal of
the few survivors of that organiza-
ton to declare it at an end, of their
determination to carry on so long as
life lasts. The real American spirit,
and who will deny that this same
spirit now animates the American
Legion?

WHY THE QUEEN COMES

One editor inquiries what Queen
Marie of Rumania Is coming to
America for. He notes that we are
told what she has for supper, for
breakfast and for dinner; we are
told that she is bringing SO trunks,
we are told the length at which She
wears her dresses-but we are not
told just what she is coming for.
Now comes a dispatch from LON
don, which may explain the matter,
which may suggest that those
trunks do not come full but may go
back filled to repletion. This ap-
pears in the Boston News Bureau:
London-West Gazette says
Queen Marie of Rumania expects
her trip to the United States will
more than pay for itself in loans she
hopes to obtain from American
bankers. Its information came from
Its Vienna correspondent, who said
he obtained the true story of the
queens visit from a source close to
the Rumanian court.

Over and over again.

ed the old rabbit gentleman. Little

At last the little rabbit shouted, "I

nimble old gentleman bunny had
spread the clean white table cloth and
set three sets OF knives and forks, he
picked up the lollypops and quickly
stuck them. into the beautiful frosted

Editors Letter Box
With God

Who are the Incorporate?
Can the degree of this sin be de-
termined by the evil that results?
How about intemperance of speech?
BE not rash with thy mouth, be not
hasty to utter anything before God,
for God is in heaven, and thou upon
earth, therefore, let thy words be
few" The tongue is an unruly
member, full of deadly poison. Who
can estimate the degree by the sorrow
and evil it causes? The most of
deaths and separatings Of earthly
ties come from intemperance of eat
ing or drink, or both many times.
Think it over. Which can throw the
stone at the other? 20, consistency,
thou art a jewel. In a parable.

MAINE GOSSIP
Autumn Tints

When the autumn equinoxial
Blankets earth with rain and cold,
Clears and freezes as a warning
That the year is getting old,
Then all nature seems conspiring
To put on a masquerade,
Starting with the scarlet sumac,
Ending with the fallen shade.
Golden sunset, bloodshot. moo9risc,
Skies of every tint and hue
Break the sameness of the gray days
And monotony of blue.
Poplars furnish brilliant yellows:
Naples, shades of rich old gold;
Oaks contribute many bronzes,
Here and there crimson bold.
Black the burrows of late blowing,
Green alfalfa growing near,
Purple wild grapes make q showing
AS their leaves then disappear.
Nature dons her crown of glory
In a brilliant afterglow.
Bows, and yields to winter weather
With it's coat Of ice and snow.
