The first attempt, more than two years ago, was but a miniature compared with the last. This was a six-page, full size news paper giving a record of the ac tivities of Vernonia post of the American Legion and its sister or- ganization, the American Legion Auxiliary. Sole credit for the work of writ- ing the material, securing the ad- and vertisements, and collecting finishing up all details except the mechanical work of printing must go to Lee Schwab, local employe of the United Railways company. While the news stories did not conform strictly to the rigid rules evolved through the years for news papers, nevertheless it unquestion ably was received by its many readers with a marked degree of appreciation. Local organizations were indiscriminately praised for their work in both civic affairs and in helping the Legion. Indi- viduals in Vernonia, whether leg- ionnaires or not, 'were given much credit for help they have given. I A request made by others that they be permitted to have space to give Lee Schwab the credit that was due him in his efforts “for the good of the Legion' i” was met with prompt refusal. With all the work, worry and no pay con- ] nected with the issuing of the Flying Ape, it is hoped that its I modest editor received entire sat-1 isfaction in a job well done by the notation on a single line of the editorial page: “Lee Schwab, Edi tor.” TAKING §and fourth Tues days each month, 8 p.m. H. _ E. ____ Me- Graw, Commander.

On the school ground he is lad that will always be found the shove for the inside track, is the fellow whom the referee the football field must watch constant off-side plays. On cinder track he does his best get off just a second ahead of the gun. Later when he plays golf, he is the bird who seeks a better lie, claiming a wagon wheel or horse , hoof has left an unnatural depress ion. In politics or business or pro-' fessional life, he can never be counted on to carry through with1 associates or competitors. When they plan to do something as an association or ar a community they always look ' to him' to pull some thing that is just a little off form and he seldom disappoints them. Naturally he is unpopular with his contemporaries and competitors for his unethical actions pique them, but they are seldom hurt a great deal by his unfairness, for the pub-] lie these days is just a little quick - Chapter M.
