KING OF HKLGIUM A PKACTICAL

This king of the Belgians irtiprnvo
On acquaintance and that nn-ans a
pood deal, when you consider the firm
hold ho had on American hearts to he
pin with. lie is always displaying
lomo new imit or talent.
The other day, on his lour nrromi the
continent, ho climbed into the cab of
the locomotive, took iho throttle, van
the train for ton miles without a jolt
stopped it nnd returned to hin cur
Hardly nnybody on the train knew
anything About it. Albert was drcKftcil
very murh like a locomotive engineer,
with a flannel shirt und a ca( and
noboily recognized him on a royal per
mnnpe when he climbed down out uf
the engine cnb. "
It wm not a bluff, either. Albert,
benides being skilled in aviation an
vnrioun other branehoR of sport and in
dustry, in Kiiid to hnvo a thorough
knowledge of locomotive engineering
He could probably have given the reg
ular engineer on that train some
pointers.
On another occasion, when the train
fusing to etidorno the proposed leffj Na
tion now pending in rongre.-s for tin
payment of a big cash lion us to re
turned Rerviee men. Tlie decision b
Knid to represent the sentiment of tin
big majority of delegates. .Mont of thi
minority who voted to recommend tin
bonus announced that they did sr
merely in obedionce to instruction
from their pnpt, and against tla-ii
own conviction?). It is likely that pf-stt
at home will reconsider the m.itter.
The convention declared that th'
function of the American Kogion wir
gwee i to "put Hfimetliing into tho govern
ment, not to take away from it.
Many other Htrttes heanl from off i
cially or unofficially vhovf a iniiiai
disposition. It'i evident that the
American Legion in determined to live
up to its nanu- and war record.
Few people would as ert tkit the
war veterans do not deservt unythinj
that a grateful country h able to give
them, whether it be honors or mate
rial rewards. Hut there is a genera1
feeling that this particular proposa'
hardly represent the best form of
recognition. In any event, whether
the bonus is given or withheld, the
American Legion will do itself and the
nation the highest service by main
taining this honorable position ,and
refusing to ask for a reward.
