Let's make Friday a big night for the American Legion and for your selves I i Under efficient committees much work Is being accomplished. for the American Legion Auxiliary. Since October the Welfare and Hospital committees have visited many needy families and relief has been given where needed. Baskets were distrib uted to families of ex-service men (who are In the hospital) for Thanksgiving, and baskets will be distributed also at Christmas time. The Auxiliary maintains a wel fare room, where articles of cloth ing . mare made and old clothing altered for distribution to the needy Legionnaire, and family. The last two or three years the Sewing Club of the Auxiliary aided the Red Cross by making clothing at their direc tion and are reaay to aid In this work, this year, whenever needed. Jelly and Jam have been given to the hospital and families need ing the same. A large box of chil dren's clothing and magazines was sent to Roseburg to aid the wel fare committee there, as many fam ilies of ex-service men who arc confined In the Roseburg hospital, go to. Roseburg and settle there, thus creating a very serious situation. A copy of the Medford Mail Tri bune is sent each day to both the Portland and Roseburg Veterans' hospitals and magazine subscriptions are also sent to the hospitals by the auxiliary. A cash gift is sent the hospital cheer committee each month. The Community Service commit tee haa had several projects this year. The auxiliary has sponsored and organized a Women's Choral club under the direction of Mrs. Elsie Carlton Strang. This club meets each Tuesday evening In the Girls' Community club. Anyone Interested, who can read music, is eligible and urged to Join. This club fulfills a long felt want In the city. Mem bers of the auxiliary have helped in the Community Chest and Red Cross drives. The latest community project la the Nursery Home for pre-school children and for this the Auxiliary and Legion have Joined their forces and funds supplying the cots, sheets. blankets and some other things ol similar nature. Th Auxiliary's national defense program Is Identical with the Legion and stresses the Importance of de fense and preparedness as only these two things can Insure peace and happiness. Under Americanism, the program constits of teaching the young oi America, love of country and loy alty to Its teachings. We would like the "Pledge to the Tlag" given in every school room of the nation, followed by the national songs each day of the year, thus Instilling In the minds of the young, love of country. The Unit Activities committee and Refreshment committee have worked hard In furthering the activities of the Auxiliary by social bridge parties, plays and covered dish din ners. All members of the Legion and Auxiliary, and all eligible to membership are always welcome at all such events. A wholesale dealer who had a lot of trouble In getting a certain re- taller to pay hJs bills finally lost patience and wrote the merchant a threatening letter. He received the following reply: "Dear Sir: What v do you mean by writing me a letter like that? "Every month I place all my bills in a hat and then figure out how much money I have to pay on my accounts. Then I have my book keeper draw as many bills out of the hat as I have money to pay. "If youKJon't like my way of do ing business, I won't even put your bills In the hat." Parmer's daughter: "Mr. Dribbel, I'd like you to meet my fiance, Mr. Hill." Country Postmaster: "Pleased to meet yuh, Dewey. You certainly write a mean love letter, by heck." Miss A: "What were you and Herb arguing about last night." Miss B: "Oh, Just one of those little petty things." Doctor: "You must avoid all forms of ' excitement." Schef fel : "But, doctor, can't I even look at them on the street?"
