 On Organization
Children of Legionnaires Will Be Recruited Election of Officers and Further Details to Mark Next Meeting Idea Discussed at National and State Conventions

In what is believed to be the first movement of its kind in the United States. Mary Gormley post of the American Legion of this city, took steps at it's annual meeting last night toward the formation of d new organization to be known as American Legion Heirs" The new organization will be composed of children of legionnaires and soon will be nationwide in scope.
 Discussion of such an organiza- tion has already taken place at the national legion convention at De- troit and at the state convention at New Britain. No other legion post is believed to have taken action on the project.
 Mary Gormley post members, ac- cording to plans decided upon last night, will secure the names of children of local legionnaires who are eligible for membership and a call of a meeting soon thereafter for organization purposes. Elec- tion of officers vii be the first step. After the officers are elected the "American Legion Heirs" will be under the guardianship of the Gormley post and the local legion post until the junior organization members have grown old enough to conduct their own affairs.
 In discussing the project this morning, Mrs Mae E. Dwyer, com mander of Gormley post said the American Legion Heirs will com pare in many respects to the Sons of Union Veterans and the Daugh- ters of the American Revolution, in the latters' connection to the G. A. R. She pointed out that there are a good many eligible chill dren in Waterbury around the ages of 12 to IA.
 If the Gormley post is success full in bringing about such an or ganization for Waterbury 1t will be the first veterans outfit in the country to receive the honor. Ac- cording to legion heads in this city, other posts throughout the country are contemplating such organiza- tions in their respective cities.
 Gormley post elected the follow ing officers at last nights meeting: Commander. Mrs Helen B. Fitz- gerald; first vice-president, Miss Helen Weinhusen; treasurer. Miss Ebhe Anderson; adjutant, Mrs Agnes W. Smith: chaplain. Mrs William J. Cavanaugh; sergeant-at- arms, Mrs Anna L. Bergin. The

Mothers, Mix This At Home for
 a Bad Cough

You'll be pleasantly surprised when you make up this simple home mixture and try it for distressing cough due to a cold. It takes but a moment to mix, costs little, and saves money, but it can be depended upon to give quick and lasting relief.
 Get 2h ounces of Pinex from any druggist. Pour this into a pint bottle: then fill it with plain granulated sugar syrup or strained honey. The full pint thus made costs no more than small bottle of ready-made medicine, yet it is much more effective. It is pure, keeps perfectly and children love its pleasant taste. ~r
 This simple remedy has a remark able three-fold action. It goes right to the seat of trouble, loosens the germ laden phlegm, and soothes away the inflammation. Part of the medicine is absorbed into the blood, where 1t acts directly upon the bronchial tubes and thus helps inwardly to throw of the whole trouble with surprising ease.
 Pinex is highly concentrated com pound of Norway Pine, containing the active agent of creosote, in a refined, palatable form, and known as one of the greatest medicinal agents for severe coughs and bronchial irritations.
 Do not accept a substitute for Pinex. It is guaranteed to give prompt relief or money refunded.
