whenever they may be called to do
so, but emphasis will be placed on
activities designed to help the boy
maintain a proper sense of values
in a war torn society and to keep
a balanced mind with a clearer
perspective on his obligations and
privileges as good citizen in the
postwar world.
The gymnasium, swimming pool,
games rooms, club rooms and IL
brary are now open for boys and
men who can participate in the fol-
lowing activities: pre- service
training, "victory volunteers, gym

Edward Nichols said that men,
bers Of Congress serving on COM
mittees dealing with veteran affairs
will be present and discuss problems
Of the veterans.
THE public must realize" he said,
that disability is not something
which has to do exclusively with a
bandage around it. Men who are
suffering from mental reaction as a
result of serving with the armed
forces are just as disabled as the
man with bullet wound" The
State Commander continued, 1.-The
home front must be conditioned to
the tragic news of injury and death
OF dear ones which will be mount
ing. Casualties will affect every
home in every block.
This years convention, Edward
Nichols said, will be the most i'm
portant and vital meeting in our
history bec- Use we will work on
problems which have a direct bear
ing on winning the war and on the
postwar period. Problems involving
protective measures for our men on
our far flung fighting fronts as well
as those being released because of
disability will be discussed.
