"Let us hav faith that right makei might, and in that faith let us to the end dare to do our duty at we understand it." Abraham Lincoln. The Lc?:on "Home" . A Boost For Tlu "Kx" And The "Ex" To Be After months and months of waiting and hoping, members of the local American Legion post are happily looking forward to the completion of their new building. Some refer to it as a "home," and truly, it will be a "home" for the ex-service men. Terhaps in no other civic body is there so much in common, one member to another, as that of one ex-service man to another. Necessarily, for the ideals they fought for, and the privations they fought under and endured for those ideals make the bond of brotherly love one of the highest degree. The local legion has carefully nursed its savings, visioning always that "home" which, with the coming years will grow more dear in the hearts of these country men. Let us not forget that there are from 700 to 800 ex-service men here. This "home," it is to be hoped, will also become the "home" of the Boy Scouts for what is more fitting than Boy Scouts and American Legion members, acting in a big way toward the same big cause better Americans, to make n better America for all. Let us not forget that the local legion is going to throw open the doors of its proposed new building for the use of the public. Its athletic equipment and its as sembly room space may be used by the masses. In fact, it will be Klamath's only gymnasium, Klamdth's only large meeting hall, perhaps for some time to come. The pageant committee of Klamath Falls has an old fund of $1,000 to be used for the erection of a community hall. Is this not literally a community hall, offered the public, with the exception of a night or so each week, when the legion will use it exclusively, and barring a meeting room which will be regarded as the legion's sanctum? Perhaps the pageant committee will see fit to expend this .xum for the good of the lpgion and the Boy Scouts and the public in geneval It would be a fine spirit, a big step toward giving Klamath's youth a most needed ath letic training, and a lasting friendship between Klamath's most successful business men and those who fought for permanency of American ideals. A Part for Everyone A Little Cooperation A Big Result Trees 10,000 of them will be added to the residen tial districts of Klamath Falls this fall, if the head of every household, property owner or not, will respond to elaborate preparations being made by the Rotary club and the chamber of commerce for the big tree drive, which will open within the coming 10 days. The cost of the trees will be nominal. They will be planted free, and instructions will be given free of charge as regards care of the tree. Several weak attempts have been made in the past decade here toward this important step in beautification, but they have not met with results. The plans of the chamber, however, on this latest drive, are elaborate. There will be nothing lacking in the plans. IT IS UP TO EVERY CITIZEN TO CO-OPERATE simply by spending a dollar or two for the trees. This is a chance for every one in Klamath to help show his civic pride. Stop for a moment and think of the impression it would make upon outsiders, long avenues of trees on every thoroughfare. Stop and think of the pride of the thing. Six or eight years from now, when those trees reach their full growth, Klamath will be proud of its trees. o The framers of our government were far-seeing men, but we doubt if any of them ever dreamed the time would come when congress would be known as a widows' home.
