N e w York City ArotlM-d by charges of the Ameri can l.txiou that the government has faileil In Its duly toward disabled vet- • runs i f the World war. the board of dir. tors of the International Associa tion of Hotary Clubs has ordered a nation-wide survey of the situation "to (»rove whether American Leglou reports are based on hysteria or upon actual facts.” Tlie llotary organization has In- tlorscd the l.eglon's consolidation pro- gram for the relief to the disabled and will support the Legion’s efforts to obtain Its enactment Into law, ac cording to Chesley H. Perry of Chi ens«, secretary-general of the Rotary clubs’ organizations. “ The 50,(100 American business and profc-clonal men who form the 800 Rotary clubs of the United States, h a e started out to gather the actual facts in their resi»ectlve communities with regard to ' the manner In which the United States government Is handling the cases of disabled ex-sol- dit rs," Mr. Perry stated In a letter to P. W. Galbraith, Jr., commander of the Legion. “ The Kotarians have been shocked by the disclosures made by the Ameri can Legion regarding the circum stances surrounding the rehabilitation of Uncle Sam's disabled ex-service meu. Each Rotary club la appointing u special committee to Investigate conditions In Its community and re- (sirt to the club. Every club will then report to the headquarters office of Rotary In Chicago. The result will be that from 800 communities in every part of the United States will come evidence of business and professional men to prove to the American people whether or not the American Legion reports are based on hysteria or upon actual facts so revolting and heart rending as to cause fhe whole Ameri can people to rise In their might and do Justice to the men who sacrificed themselves for their country." The Legion’s national commander asserted that his organization will welcome the Rotary Investigation. “ I hope Its findings will be given the widest publicity,” he said. “ It will be found that the Legion haa not overstated the case In any particular.” DREW ON HIS IMAGINATION To Put It Mildly, Longfellow waa Net Alwaya Accurate In Hie De scriptive Poem». The poet Longfellow has set an ex ample of Inaccuracy In dealing with cur Pilgrim ancestors which has been widely followed. His charming poem. “ The Courtship of Myles Stamlish," has been read by millions of his coun tryinen and doubtless accepted by great numbers as gospel truth. Yei It hus no historical basis, suys a writ er In the Boston Transcript. Titer* la not a scintilla of evidence that fearless captain, who was small of stature and red-haired, but every Inch a soldier— bad any desire to win thi affections of Priscilla Mullins. He was a very busy man durlug the first years at Plymouth. And, but for his wisdom, skill and heroic actions, there ia little doubt but what they would have all been murdered by wild sav ages, who were not wholly restrained by MassasolL It seems too had that so brave and unselfish a mun as Star dish was should now be paraded be fore bis descendants as a rejected suitor. He and they deserve a better fate. The poet la no more accurate In dealing with him than he U In de scribing the marriage of John Alden and Priscilla. What a pretty bit of fiction It was to place Priscilla on a “ milk-white steer,“ when there was not a cow, nor a steer.

Mrs. G. started for the shoe repair shop the other day with a slipper that needed mending. Once In the street she remembered an Important mes sage and stopped to telephone iu 11 little office on the ground tloor of the building In which she lives. The pro prietor showed her the Instrument in tbe rear. Just then the proprietor's wife en tered the office, and first of all she saw Mrs. G.'s slipper lying on a table. “ So you even have her shoes here!" she cried and began to weep. Her tears quickly turned to unger, and In a moment she began to upbraid her husband. Then Mrs. Q. interfered. “ That’s mine,” she said, appearing from behind the screen. The angry wife looked at her dur ing a pause In her heated language. “ I don’t believe It." she snapped. “ I'll show you.” said Mrs. G.. and. like Cinderella, though the prince was missing, she tried on tlie slipper.— New York Sun. What Is Art? The conclusion Is thut heaven born geniuses are a myth. Actora are no fonder of thinking hard and laboring hard than any other set of humans. The manager, seeing that there doesn't appear to be very much difference In their caliber, has taken to selecting them by their physical appearance. The actor is the cause, and the man ager Is the result. The public Is Bland's Orchestral Band which is the largest musical organization to visit the Chautauqua this year is noted for the unusual, dramatic, de scriptive, comedy and feature num bers it plays Mr. Ulaud builds Ills programs with worlds of dash and variety. His bands are composed eu tirely of Americans and generally col lege educated men. so that he can se cure much more effective entertaiu ment than would be possible from foreign musicians. A concert by Bland's band isn't Just a slow sleepy succession of marches and overtures, but a rapid fire mix ture of colorful stunts and entertain lug uovelty. Each evening this company pre sents the great descriptive war scene. "The Battle of the Marne” with gor geous electrical effects This num her Is probably the most thrilling at tempted by any Chautaqua band in tbe country and could be played by few if any organizations except Blands Band.
