Eleven commandment* In “reverse
English" have bean found useful by
William Q. Hetllff«, stat« adjutant of
tba American Legion in Ultnola. in
building up th« Legion's program for
that stat*. They are as follows:
1. Don't attend meetings If It rains.
You might get your feet wet. and you
are not in the physical condition you
went at the cantonments, or at Brest
2. Don't think of going If it Is a
warm. moonlight night. There are lota
of other things you could do that sort
of a night.
F'r Instance—Oh, roll
your own Idea.
8. If you should attend a meeting,
find fault with everything that's go­
ing on.
If your officers are showing
pep, demand to know In open meeting
what political office* they Intend run­
ning for.
4. Never accept an office In the post.
Most offices have duties connected
with them, and It Is much easier to
criticize the way the other fellow Is
trying to handle the Job.
5. Get sore at the organisation If you
are not appointed on a committee.
fl. If yoo are appointed, don't both
er about attending the committee
meetings. They often are a bore.
7. During discussion of a motion
keep Still.
After It ha* penned, tell
some one why they should have voted
It down.
8. Forget to pay your does.
The
l*»st can get along awhile longer with­
out your contribution.
9. Don’t try to get new members.
George will do It.
10. Don't do any work on post af­
fair*. or any more than Is absolutely
necevwnry. When other member* roll
up their sleeves and give unselfishly
of their time and ability to help things
along, get up on your hind legs and
howl thal the post Is being run by a
cl lque.
11. Remember, you owe no duty or
obligation to a sick or disabled buddy
—your own personal comfort comes
first

The primary purpose of the organi­
zation Is to preserve the cordial rela­
tions between the nations associated
In the war on the allied side. As one
means of accomplishing this It Is pro­
posed that the membership card of each
society shall be recognized by the so­
cieties In all the nations represented tn
the association.
The delegates who attended the
Paris conference have been Instructed
to report back to their respective or­
ganization* the details of the amalga­
mation. Paris was merely the starting
point, from which veterans of the I
W orld war may form their ewn league
of Nations.
The committee which represented
the American Legion at the Paris con­
ference Included Cabot Ward and Ar­
