THE BUNGALOW CAFE
State officials of the American
Legion have announced a gigantic
membership push to enroll a thous
and more members in its 110 posts
prior to the 27th of this month. Rep.
resentation of posts as to number
of delegates alternates is based upon
their paid up membership thirty
days prior to the convention date,
which is July 27th.
The Oregon
Department is now in the twenty-
first place among the state depart
ments in the Union and far ahead of
nearby states, California. Washing
ton. Colorado, Idaho and Texas.
Strenous efforts will be made to
move the Oregon Department up to
the tenth place by June 27th. Posts
have been asked to appoint commit
tees to Interview the eligible ex-ser
vice men and advertise -the American
Legion—the only all-inclusive sol
dier organization of World War
Veterans in existance today. Offi-
ials state that "any ex-service man
who is not a member of the Ameri
can Legion is against it." If the
Legion is fighting the ex—service
man's battles then he should be with
us. Every man outside the legion
that is qualified to be in it. is an
enemy to the legion because he
weakens the organization that much.
As long as the ex-service men are
divided there cannot be any real pro
gress made in the cause for which
we exist. "One for all—all for one
and all for the legion Is the motto
of the great veterans organization.’’

When The Tinker Came Along
Remember when you used to watch the “tinker man"
mend the holes in your mother’s pans? Solder was the
metal used—and solder is a product of lead.
Countless other products of lead add to the comfort
and convenience of your daily life. In your automobile,
for instance, there is lead in the battery, bearings, glass
of the headlight lenses, the rubber tires, the paint, and
in the rubber mat on the step.
But more important than all these is the use of white-
lead as the principal factor in good paint. The more
white-lead any paint contains, the greater its protective
power and its durability.
We, therefore, use straight “lead-and-oil” paint, made
of the well-known “tried and true”
Dutch Boy White-Lead
and pure linseed oil—for both interior and extertof
work. Any color desired obtainable.
Now is an ideal time to have that interior or exterior
job done—“Save the Surface and You Save All.” Let
us estimate on your work—no obligation incurred.
