New York Times and his point seem
to be well taken.
He contrasts the lot of the clergy

Most Of our local taxes go for

Jersey We have many teachers
who have held their positions I'M

have studied little since their
graduation from normal school.
In the main teachers salaries
are adequate. And they have
from two to three months a year
vacation. Is it any wonder that
there is an oversupply of teach
ers?
Contrast the clergyman. Four
years of college equip a high
school teacher. But most denom-
nations now require of their
clergymen four years of college =.

training in addition. Discounts

You get that way upon the first
visit to the country, after a year in
New York! Funny, but New Workers
can sleep through the thunder like
rumble of elevated trains; through
the echoed roar OF traffic and the
whistling Of a thousand boats-but
three crickets, a frog and a couple OF

In spite Of the chaotic conditions,

bismarck Scores at Convention

Bismarck's delegates to the Ameri-
can Legion convention at Valley City
return home with many honors.
Awarded the Kamplin trophy for the
most outstanding community service,
the local post also won second hon
ors in the drum corps competition
and a Bismarck man now heads the
Forty and Eight organization.
Members of Lloyd Spetz Post No. l
have every reason to feel proud OF
their past years accomplishments.
The Kamplin trophy was won for
sponsorship of Boy Scout work, junior
baseball teams, a drum and bugle
corps, an open Your Heart" cam
paign, promotion of the Memorial
building and contributions to the
state camp for tubercular children.
All these were undertaken in addi-
tion to the heavy program Of strictly
Legion matters. Few persons ap-
preciate the activity of this organiza-
ton in general community affairs.
The report of Jack Williams. adju-
tant of the organization, served we'll
to focus attention on the many
sided activities of the American
Legion. A portion of his report Is
we'll worth repetition in these col
urlns:
"A survey of the American
Legion posts in this state which
has just been completed reveals
some very interesting data.
The community service work
sponsored by the posts in this
state covers a wide scope of activ-
tiles and includes: School awards,
ice Kinks, roller skating Kinks,
swimming pools and bath houses.
bathing beaches, playground
equipment for parks, gymnasium
equipment for schools, building
parks, building and sponsoring
golf courses, up-lieep of cemeter-
les, sponsoring home and garden
contests, juvenile bands, scnool
play days, city athletic fields,
snow slides and ski slides. One
post built a dam to improve the
towns water supply and another
post built the village we'll to i'm
prove the water supply. These
activities show that the American
Legion posts have adopted 'serv-
ice to the community as a part
of their program"
Legion activities show ccnclusively
the membership is engaged in mat
tiers which have no selfish bearing
upon their " interests as former
service men. Many citizens have
come TO believe that the American
Legion concentrates its tremendous
influence upon pension or bonus leg
islation or on those things exclusively
directed to promote their OWN well
fare. A closer study of Legion activ-
tiles, however, as far as North Da-
kota is concerned at least, reveals an
entirely different situation.
The American Legion is taking a
definite stand upon Americanism. Its
members assist materially at every
celebration of a patriotic nature and
the policy Of the Legion is to promote
greater loyalty to the Republic.
That is a necessary and vital function
for these eX-service men who give
willingly when the nation calls. Some
OF their peace jobs are not as spec
tacular as when the drum sounded
and the bugle called, but these duties
are just as important-if not more so
If a free government is to be MAIN
tanned.
All honor to the American Legion
The members Of the local post deserve
q community hand for their accom-
plishments.

skin to develop irrftations In ho'
weather, Because of the ultra violet
radiation, the greater humidity, the
increased activity of the sweat glands
and the increased exposure to infec-
ton, hot weather brings on all sorts
of skin troubles. Sunburn a be SO
severe as to in~capacitate an IN

posed to the sun reacts more quickly

Various ointments and creams help
to prevent sunbUrn. Recently spec
ial creams have been developed to
prevent serious burning.
A freckle that comes out in hot
weather is not a disease. 1t Is an
attempt on the part of the skin to
nut up a screen to keep off the sun
light. When the exposure is stopped
and the skin is protected, the blood
picks up the pigment from the skin
and gets rid of it. Freckle creams
that are planned to peel off the skin
are dangerous.
Many lotions and toilet waters con-
tain ingredients that tend to deposit
