The American Legion Aux- Wary, will have this column every Sunday so that mem- 4) bers unable . to attend the meetings and those Interested J iln Its activities may read of Its social affairs and also the . work that Is being done by this organization. Mrs. Wm. Irfe Bricker, press correspon- dent. On Monday evening, October 28th about fifty members of the American Legion Auxiliary met for a social and business meeting. The program was in charge of Mrs. . Kd ward Leach. Tlie usual order of business was revised and ihe entertainment was put at the beginning of the evening. The members were invited to take themselves In fancy to Serbia nnd spend about an Hour and a half In entertainment, sightseeing and sillily of tills intensely Interesting little country. Dancers from the Eve Benson dancing school In gay costumes and holiday mood, brought the carnival spirit to the trip. : ; As nn encore they brought our thought hack to( Broadway tiul old New York for a few no irnm with a tap dance to the Sidewalks of New York." The dances were beautifully executed and the moral of the "globetrot ters': raised to grade "A". ' So we gathered about Mrs. Leach, our guide, and learned much of this tiny country that is not ns large as Maine and whose population does not equal that of New York City. We went to Belgrade, the capitul city, and saw where the last con ference of that great peace move ment, f'idac, was held. Enchanted by the beautiful buildings and well laid out city, we were glad to learn of this energetic - and educated people. So much has been done In so little time as it has been only a short time, historically speaking, that Serbia has had her freedom. v- In the country the patriarch sys tem still prevails, and many fam ilies combine their resources and band together under the leadership of an elder. The whole commu nity then stands good for the loss of any one man so that It is always easy to borrow money. This, and ii law which provided for only a .certain portion, of a man's pro perty being disposed of in one day bus done much to prevent poverty In this country. jbJ When a stranger comes to Bel trade, he may see tall buildings, ride upon tram curs, go to the opera, the theater, or consult the chamber of commerce about his own country or ubout another if he be interested. He may consult the trades union on .labor prob lems, and If Just bent on enjoying cafes, restaurunts, etc., of a mod ern city are at his disposul. Before , the formal opening, of the meeting Mrs. Hull, the ..presi dent, called upon Mrs. D. G. Will son to explain the meaning of the salute to the flag. She urged all to familiarize themselves with the pledge of allegiance and help oth ers to show respect whenever It passes. She laid the fact to ignor ance that many women do not put the hand over the heart at pa rades, etc. As a part of our Amer icanization work we should try and teach them by act as well as words. The new committee heads 'ex plained the work to be accomr pllshed during the year so that aomprehensive aid might be given them.' ' Mrs. Hall announced the ap pointment of Mrs. A. Ptche ns re freshment chairman, nnd of Mrs. 'Jloruce Bromley as house clialr Win. ; On Armistice day a Inrge nhirmnt DANCE -- VIC MEYER'S Columbia Record Orchestra Under Direction of BILLY ULMAN TUESDAY, NOV. 5th ORIENTAL GARDENS of whoopee Is to be made by the women as well as the men of the Legion this year.

Careful plans were mude by the entertainment committee to give a big Hallowe'en thrill. These plans caused the party to drive to a deserted house in the coun try near Ashland. The house was prepared in advance with lighted pumpkins, etc., to add to the Hallowe'en setting. It was plan ned that the supposed owner of the deserted house would appear on the scene and order the party to vacate the premises: during the controversy that would naturally ensue, some guns were to be fired with blanks.- The Ashland police were then scheduled to arrive on the scene and arrest those pres ents and search everyone " for liquor, etc. It was further plan ned that one of the party would be caught, with what would appear . iw ""c ins icijuiiru ciiuviite n flask bf cold tea); upon finding this evidence, the police were to order everyone to he escorted to the police station. But like many too carefully laid plans, the unexpected - happened. When the supposed owner of the deserted house and the Ashland police arrived on the scene, they were too late. Everyone had left the house ond were on their way back to the Parish half at Mod ford to continue their party with dancing, refreshments, etc." With out any thrill. The Ashland policemen were thariked and dismissed by one of the entertainment committee, af ter which a hurried conference was held with the party who was acting as the owner of the house. It waa decided that he should fol low the party to Medford, and during the midst of the fun walk in on them in his dilapidated at tire, which consisted of lace gum boots about three or four sizes too la rge for him, ragged khaki pants which were also several sizes too large, a ragged, dirty old corduroy hunting coat but toned up the front with nails, a greasy cap, with his hair arrang ed to appear uncut for several months, and lastly, a revolver stuck In his belt. In this. uncouth attire, he walked into the midst of the merrymakers demanding damages for the several things he charged had been broken and de stroyed vhlle they were trespass ing in his house. Of course, the bolder members of the party argued the point with him, while others of the party looked on in varying degrees of disgust and fright. It appeared for a moment or two as thoug:i oiie of the huskier members might lay hands on th Intruder and "Something AVic Every Day LtB.HOFFMANrt- PRESENTING THE NEW AND UNUSUAL IN COATS, ENSEMBLES, DRESSES, QUTLTED ROBES AND ACCESSORIES "Smartnena Without Extravagance" Children of American Revolution Assist in Dedication Ceremony I j Ji . 5 - I V J 1 Miss Lucllc Murray Miss F.I I za both Tllm remove him from their midst. Fortunately at this time . Father Black walked in and pleaded guilty for the party and asked the self-styled owner to name his damages, which climaxed the farce. The intruder-glanced nt the serving table "'lortcled dowti with good things to eat, and de clared that he woul stndy for lunch which would settle his claims In full. It then slowly dawned on those present that a trick had been successful! play ed on them, and it was afterward explained that they had escaped one trick by leaving the vacant house too soon only to fall into another. A Guest. "The Best Man" Popular KMKI Play One of the best Norris rydio dramas of the season was "The Best Man", ..which was presented by the Copco Players over station KM ED last Tuesday. The plot involved the wH known triangle of two men and a maid nnd was cleverly put over by Miss Norris, the climax being especially5 effec tive. The part of the "best man" was played to excellent advantage by Earlc Davis, while Fletcher Fish portrayed the part of the fickle lover to perfection. The feminine lead was played by Jo Murray Hostel in her usual pleasing man ner. The next broadcast by the ('opco Players is scheduled for Tuesday evening, Nov. 12, during the regular ('ripen hour . 0 , B , - a i i I Fort Lane Marker Unveiled by C. A.

Tho Inspection on this tablet reads, "Site of Fort Lane, Built by Order of the Government, 1X53-4, Occupied by Troops of the Regular Army for 3 Years. Placed by Crater Lake Chapter D. A. R., 192(1." The flagstaff pine tree stnnds proudly and majestlcnlly nearby, keeping silent watch over this sacred spot where so many years ago it. too, had helped to keep Old Glory waving for home and eoun l ry. The prngrn m opened by t ho sinking of "America," nnd salute to the flag by the audience, follow ed by a prayer by Dr. Virginia Riggs, chaplain of the D. A. R.

Historians many times differ as to the exnet time and place of events, but there Is no difference expressed in tell ing of tho heroic conduct and pa triotic fervor of these early pio neers. The speaker then told of the high regard, respect ond con fidence the Indians had for Gen eral Lane nnd stated that It was his courage more than the services o all the troops that brought per manent peace to the Rogue River valley.
