LEGION DANCE FOR
FRIDAY MITE, SEPT. 3

There is to be an American Le-
gion dance at Wolfville, Friday
night, September 3rd, sponsored by
Mrs. Lulu Hall. The expenses of
the dance are paid by Mrs. Hall,
while the proceeds will go to the
treasury of Fred Coe post of Cody.
The Cody Inn Four" an orchestra
composed of the dusky boys from
the station, will furnish the music,
and is said to be real good.
Early this year Mrs. Hall gave
her regular annual Legion dance,
but the attendance was not good,
and the proceeds were so small that
she felt that she wished to do some
thing more for the local Legion
post. The expense of these dances
runs rather high, and the gross
proceeds go to the Post. Everyone
is urged to attend.

LEGION CHIEF DINED
BY FRED COE POST
John r. McQuigg, National Com
mander, Tells Legion Boys How
They Garry On and Best
Serve as Citizens

In one of the most inspiring
talks ever delivered in Cody. John
R. McQuigg, national commander
of the American Legion, told the
members and guests OF Fred Coe
post on Sunday evening how they
could best carry on and continue
to serve their country during times
of peace. Commander McQuigg ar
rived from Casper on Sunday aft
ernoon and was enroute to Yellow
stone National park for a few days.
Commander McQuigg is a very
forceful speaker, and held the in
terest of his audience every second
he was on his feet His talk was
on on true "Am%ericanism,' and he
placed his stamp of disapproval in
no unmistakable terms upon "pac-
ifism." Pacifsm he divided into
two classes. The radical pacifist
he denounces as "un-American-"
BY his theory of life and govern
ment he would be a slave to the
more dominant nations of the
world within a period of less than
fifty years. There is another paci-
fist, said Commander McQuigg, who
is opposed to war and all the hor-
rors hat it brings because of his
observation or actual experience in
it. This paciist has probably done
his part. and wants no more of it
at any price. He would rather
bow his will to that of those who
are of stronger timbre. He, too.
would rather be OF a s~ubservient
nation than a dominant one.
Commander McQuigg is not an
advocate of war-far from it. His
talk was altogether along the lines
of peace, and the betterment of the
world. He called upon the mem
bers Of the American Lgion, the
greatest organization of war vet
Grams the world has ever known.
to each one do his part in making
this nation the greatest, the best
and with the highest standards of
any nation in the world. And in
doing this, said Commander Nc
Quigg, we must be true to our
country; we must stand ready to
fight for what is just and right; we
must at all times maintain the hon.
or and integrity of these United
States.
The national commander is a
veteran of the Standardization
war and the World war, command
ing a regiment in France and was
made brigadier general of infantry
in 1921. He was accompanied to
Cody by Will G.. Metz of Sher-
idan, state commander of the Lee
gion in Wyoming, and was taken
into Yellowstone park by Glen
Trueblood, member of Fred Coe
Post of Cody. They returned to
Cody Tuesday evening and Com
mander McQuigg took the train for
Cleveland. Ohio.
AT the dinner held at the Irma
on Sunday evening, members of
practically all the Legion posts of
the basin were in attendance, more
than twenty Legionaires coming
from Basin to see and hear the ma
tional commander.
