We are very much surprised and grieved to learn, that it is being, whispered or talked, by some people that our rooms, or quarters, are nothing but a gambling joint. The name, American juegion, wunin its self, should mean more to you than your title. It not only stands for the men and boys who fought and would have died for you but for the greater portion of America,s besti manhood and the ideals of a true American citizen. We have given the general public an opportunity to visit and inspect our quarters on special occasions and they also stand "I'or inspection at anyj time. We would thank you who have formed this opinion to make yourselves satisfied and correct your erroneous statements.

Neglect to drink as much water as a healthy person requires, which is three pints each day. Neglect to take enough exercise to keep the body in a healthy condition. Neg lect to establish a regular habit of having the bowels move once each day, whether there is an inclination or not.
