CON VIONTION ; Since the offiriiils anil tlie doli'satcs wore prinliiiily re .spnnsilile fur the Imbues .seKsitms of the Legion convention La (Irande was cliicl'ly concerned with the housing and en tertainment of vi.'.itois. That the community did itself proud was evidenced liy the j:renl mimlier of unsolicited comments of praise at the close of the affair Saturday nigh'.. Every one was anxious to express approval and appreciation for the hospitality of La ( Irande. We believe and hope that it was merited because it. means much to a city to have such a convention entertained successfully. Ilundniils of ciliwns winked to make the convention what it was from a hospitality and entertainment stand point. Pusiness men cooperated almost without exception in every way possible. The ie:d work, however, and the long hours of planning', was done by the members of the local American Legion post and tin' Auxiliary. They deserve a great deal of credit--more than they will probably receive and they can well feel gratified at the result of their efforts. Judge r.rady, Fred Kiddle, K iy Williams, and tho entire group of committee chairmen were directly responsible. The Aux iliary officials, headed by .Mis. rainier, were eipially effective in their work. No one knows, except those, just how strenu ous a job the staging of the convention actually was. They have consolation in knowing that the job was well done. Not only the organization members themselves but all visitors to the city seemed to have a good time and to enjoy the three-day entertainment. Theie were a few incidents that were probably objectionable some people but they were no more numeiom. than could be expected from any crowd of similar size an.wOicie. Taken all in all, it is sur prising that so many th.nr-nnds of people congregated for such a celebration established .,uch a record of good conduct. Iiji (Irande people should have no regiels, should be thor oughly pleased. It was a most successful convention and one whose features cannot be easily excelled in years to come.
