The American Legion
Service 10 Community.
To Neighbor, 10 Home
By ]. T. PETRICH,
Department Adjutant

Nearly a million and a hall
Legionnaires are daily dedlcatlng
themselves to service to community,
to neighbor and to home. Many
and varied are the types Of service
being rendered by these men.
And why this unselfish service
wear after year by Legionnalres IN
more than 1850 POSTS of The Am
erican Legion?
IT is true that The American
Legion has as one of its pledges In
the Preamble to its Constitution,
ITO inculcate a sense Of individual
obligation to the community, state
and nation" And that pledge is
taken seriously by members OF the
Legion. But there is another rea-
son why American Legionnaires
conscientiously apply themselves to
the Job of making home towns
better places in which to live.
During World War I splendid
community spirit grew up all over
the nation. Religious and party
lines faded before the necessity of
conserving food, selling Liberty and
Victory bonds, securing all types
of workers for war welfare organi-
cation work. This has again been
repeated in the present conflict.
However, after World War I this

Coast Guard headquarters
Washington.

Commander and Mrs Chase de-
voted considerable time to taking
me around to see the sights of war
time Washington. One of the most
interesting visits was to the home
of the Pan American Union.
This building, markedly Latin
American in style, is unique among
the buildings in Washington. The
patio attracted my attention be-
cause of its palms, coffee and
cacao trees, bananas, and other
interesting tropical and sub tropical
vegetation; fountain by Gertrude
Vanderbilt Whitney symbolizing
he America of the past and flu
ture; the Maya figures in the tiled
floor; and, under the brightly
painted cornice. the coats-of-arms
of the American republics.
On the main floor are the library
and staff offices. A relief map of
Latin America and exhibits of pro-
ducts, handicrafts, and what in
terested me very much, bird speci-
mems, in the exhibition rooms at
the rear
The walls of the Governing Board
room are ornamented with four
bronze tablets which depict historic
events in the Americas. The large
oval table in his room is of Do
minican mahogany; each chair
bears the coats-of arms of one of
the countries comprising the Union.
Behind the main building is
formal garden with a pool, pre-
sided over by Xochipilli, the Aztec
god of flowers. Adjoining the gar
den is the Pan American Annex,
the residence of the Director Cen
eral

for them. Maybe the girls are right even though the minister does have some statistics from the last war to back up his claim.
 To begin with, soldiers or tnS var are reported to have Q more serious outlook on life than the soldiers or the last war and to have Q more mature point of view.
 If that is actually the case, young men between 2l and 2S who return from overseas may prefer girls their own ages.
 The jitterbug enthusiasms of the n and i0-year-olds may leave men matured by battle critically cold. A girl who has been holding down q lob during the war instead of wear ing bobby socks and swooning over 6inatra may be much more appeal ing to the returning veterans.
 GIRLS CAN HELP
 Then, too, the girls of % or 25 will be able to help support their mar. riages. if that is necessary-and It is sure to be in many cases, until young men get . new start In civii" ian life.
 A lot of young men are going to come back home ready 10 settle down and enjoy home life. They would certainly have a better chance of doing that if they marry girls their own ages than if they marry young kids who will want to 90 out dancing every night.
 With SO much obviously In their favor. no wonder the 25-year.olds aren't worrying their heads about competition from the teen-agers, even h the face of being called ''the lnst asneTatien."

To her tn- experienced eyes, the rapidly dis- coloring bump that swelled on his little forehead was Q sickening hor- TOT. She ran with the screaming child in her arms to the telephone and started to dial her doctors number. familiar through frequent use.
 T wouldn't do that" her mother said calmly from the Kitchen where she already was filling the ice bag. Tt will be at least an hour before the doctor can come, and in the meantime We can stop the swelling just as he would tell Us to do if he came. I don't need to remind you this is wartime and that busy doc- tors should not be called for trifies like bumps and skinned knees"
 SAVE DOCTORS TIME
 The woke before, Bobby had fallen in the gravel path behind the house and hurt his leg. Again it was his grandmother who saved the doctors time. When the dirt was washed away and the injury treated with antiseptic, 1t was not nearly so frightening.
 A little while after such an accident, young child is usually capering about again as though nothing has happened. His beauty may be marred temporarily. but no permanent injury is done. Of course, in the case of deep cuts where stitches are required. or where various burns have been suffered. the home nurse should get . doctors help as quickly as possible. Telephoning an accurate description of the accident will give him an idea of its seriousness.
