Worthiest of Worthy Causes
Local Folk Are Asked to Assist the American Legion
Before every thinking resident of Klam
ath county, regardless of the degree of af
fluence he has attained, there looms a question
worthy of his most earnest consideration.
It is the move to secure money with which
to complete the American Legion memorial
building soon to rise in Klamath Falls.
This problem has not been considered
lightly. The public, commonly, does not
favor concentrated action with a view to se
curing funds for any cause which chances to'
present itself. It is believed that, frequently,
these cw-called "drives" are a mistake and
that, on occasion, the donations made are not
spent wisely.
In the present instance, however, Klamath
Falls has net been faced by any such "drive."
In consequence, it remains for local folk to
contribute vhat they can, that the city may
benefit from Ce c::-3oldiers contributions.
The word is used advisedly. Most of the
money already has been raised by legion men
and they have been unselfish to the extreme.
For a building which will materially benefit
virtually every family in Klamath Falls, they
Tequest local citizens to provide but a small
amount.
The people should pause for a moment and
consider the benefits which will attach to the
erection of such a structure as the legion fav
ors. At the present time, there is no gym
nasium in the city; no place where the youth
of the city and county may compete in games,
so essential to the welfare of growing boys.
In the city is no auditorium of sufficient size
to house a crowd interested in the considera
tion of a question of general interest..
The new structure would boast a gym
nasium where the Boy Scouts and students of
the high school could engage in such athletics
as basketball and handball. It would take
care of a sizable gathering when an auditor
ium proved necessary.
Please remember this: in virtually every
city of the size of Klamath Falls, business men,
professional men and working men have in
terested themselves in vhat is commonly call-,
ed the "big brother" movement a movement
of older men to associate with, and attempt to
solve the problems of, the coming generation.
The results, authorities say, have been grati
fying. What organization, it is asked, would
be better suited to help in such a movement
than the American Legion? And, answering
this question, The News will say it believes
there is none.
The American Legion, offering Klamath
;county something very much worthwhile, is
waiting for its citizens to decide whether they
shall co-operate. And the American Legion
will not wait in vain.
It would seem that New York citizens
should know by this time that the only way
to get more subways is to dig for them.-San

Itr Mrs. Kllulwlh Tliumpoua
Sun?iy Dick Says
Any' one who hat ever traveled
on the New York subway in rush
hours can easily appreciate the
following:
A little man wedged Into the
middle of a ear, suddenly thought
of pickpockets, and quite as sud
denly remembered that he had
some money In his overcoat. Ho
plunged his hand into his pocket
and was somewhat shocked upon
encountering the fist of a fat fellow-passenger.
"Aha!" snorted the latter. "I
caught you that time!"
"Leggo!" snarled the little man.
"Leggo my hand."
"Pickpocket!" hissed the fat
man.
"Scoundrel!" retorted the little
one.
Just then a tall man In their vi
cinity glanced up from his news
paper. "I'd like to get off here." he
drawled, "if yotl fellows don't
mind taking your bauds out of
my pocket."

Dear Ura honipson: I read
your teller from Ihe outcast la
your culutna. I also "graduated"
from a reform school some years
ago. and have had the same es
perlrnce alnce I Ml the state's
boardlpg house. Hlace aty release
I've made good In society, bul
paid the fiddler. I am a member
of a wall known family, having re
sided here tr I J years, eirer.!
for two years la the war I rame
here to start all over, bul III news
wilt spread and try revurd Is
known, and reflects on me who
paid for an offence I aever com
mitted. I have sines beea proven
Innocent However, that doesn't
mean anything to people. They
Just remember that I was In the
reform school. I am 14 years old,
and went to France la fight for
people who knew my record. Von
do not know the atony dealt out
to us In the stste'a hotel. Hume
bow, one sort of lost faith In hu
manity. Memory of the bast pun
ishment forever wakens whenever
one goes out at night without any
particular bualncaa In mind. We
have good reaaon to avoid the
officers of ihe law.. We mint
walk a chalk line forever or fall
Into the law's hands and then the
past means more grief. I have
gone straight but the police know
my record and I have to watch
my step or live under a phony
name, all because ! refused lo
squeal on another. Though I paid
-he state's price elsewhere, the
local police somehow knew all
ahi ut me when I ram here. They
have my fingerprints, blrthecare.
