He cited the manufacture of certain
products by cooperatives in Sweden

happy to get back to the North Star
State with its fertile fields and beau
tiful landscape as compared with the
mountains and deserts in many parts
of the west. He commended the
Legion for the work its officers and
members are constantly doing in pro-
viding disqualification, and in other
ways caring for their buddies and
their families who may be i'll and
in need of medical care or hospitaliza-
ton.
Program is Good.
A varied program of singing, music,
reading and dancing rounded out the
evenings entertainment and the Lee
gion post ratified off several turkeys,
ducks and geese. Music for the dance
