Six New Members
Join V.F.W. Auxiliary
At the February 5 meeting of
the V.F.W. Auxiliary, six new
members oined to bring the roll
eall up to 33. Dorothy Pierson
from the Portland Pet Post was a
visitor and members are looking
forward to having her here again.

the V.F.W. Auxiliaries is the
maintenance of the V.F.W. Na­
tional Home at Eaton Rapids,
Michigan. This is a living me­
morial to those who served our
country overseas.
It is for the children who are
the innocent, helpless victims of
war through the loss of their
fathers and private family life.
This home is a beautiful million
dollar estate with fine brick
houses, farm buildings, pedigreed
stock, motorized equipment, etc.
The boys and girls love this
home because it fulfills every
meaning of that word, “home!”
There they have security and af­
fection. Some of the widows act
as house mothers. The children
have their own savings accounts
ar.d training in vocal and instru­
mental music. There is no reg­
imentation of any kind. Children
attend public schools, go to
churches of their own choosing,
and are encouraged to develop
their own individuality.
Surely
every eligible woman would want
to join an organization which
maintains such a wonderful me­
morial in honor of her own men-
folks who were sent “over there.”
