("Daddy”) Schick, com- nander of tke Illinois deportment of :be American Legion, was a member if a military organization that hn4 heen in existence since 1S77. known then as the ‘'Governor's Guards.” This organization. In earlier days one of the smartest military organlza- tlotis, was.the nucleus of the Illinois National Guard, and Its history dates hack to the crack zouaves of the Civil war. Their proficiency in arms, whlhh made them the envy of every other organization, was founded on tactics and training given by the gallant Ma jor Ellsworth, the first northern officer to fall in tl>e war. who was a protege of Abraham Lincoln. Only five of the original company from which the “Governof'ji Guard” was formed are alive, and “Daddy" Schick, who was a member of the drum corps, Is one of them. The organisation participated in many military contests, which were frequent in earlier days, and was once In competition with the famous Meyer’s Cadets of Toledo. The Toledo organ ization went through the manual of arms hllndfohleo. hut the inin > 'ls or- drlll field and without a single command executed the entire manual.

OJ this he said:, “Instead of being an assertion of state rights, it is an abandonment of them; it is an abdication; it amounts to a confession by the state that it doesn’t choose to govern itself, but prefers to turn the task, or a consider able part of it. over to the federal authority. There could be no more complete negation of state rights." Ami this was his warning to the “nullificntionists”: “If the burden of enforcement shall continue to be in creasingly thrown. uiion tlie federal government, it will be necessary, at large expense, to create a federal po lice authority which in time \yiii in evitably come to be regarded as an intrusion ujion and interference with the right of loealouithorlty to manage local concerns. The possibilities of disast$r^1n such a situation hardly neeff to be suggested."

In order to meet this de mand for service, certain post funds were set aside and the service oflilVr nstnicted to handle these cases. Since that time demands for aid from these patients have practically ended, according to post officials, though willingness to help is still the part of the Rochester-Legionnaires. .Some d ree of Legion care is of fered to every former service man or woman who becomes a patient in tbe hospital but tbe requests for financial aid show that most of the patients are self-sustaining during the periods of treatment.
