Lemuel Bolles, Legion adjutant, eclares. The practice of prohibition enforcelent officials wearing the army uniorm to trap violators of the liquor aw caused the American Legion of Norfolk, Va., to register a protest ith Secretary of War Weeks, who jok immediate action. The Legion lleged desecration of the insignia nmortalized by American arms durlg the World War. When the wife of a wounded buddy 'as desperately ill, physicians apealed to jobless service men in the jnerican Legion barracks, Cleveland, ?., for blood for a transfusion to save er life. The blood of the unemployd veterans was too thin, it was found, nd volunteers had to be obtained iom a Legion post of veterans who ave jobs. Cupid is making such war-romance iroads in the membership of an Lmerican Legion post of Menneapolis, linr.., composed entirely of army and avy rules, that a men's auxiliary, rurinnsod of husbands of the fair -egionaircs, is being planned, Fed up upon "wrong number," line's busy" and "line's out of orer," the American Legion post of lecatur, Ark., bought the city's telehone company and after overhauling tie system, will operate it. ? Use of the Stars and Stripes to dvertise a junk shop or a fish maret now is forbidden in New York, ollowing in American Legion's isuance of instructions on how to repect the flag, the New York legisiture passed a bill prohibiting reroductions of the flag on "business tationary." When Major Clarence R. Edwards, sader of the Yankee division in the /orld War, asked a group of Ameran Legion men at Holyoke, Mass., hat type of adjusted compensation ley would take, 85 per cent, elected le insurance feature, ten per cent, le farm and home aid and the rest eclared for vdcational training. Starting simultaneously in every immunity in tne united states, on pril 30, the international associaon of Rotary clubs and the Amerim Legion will combine to observe Boys' Week" with exercises and prorams of interest and help to young merica. The part that America played in le World War will be portrayed by huge painting given by the Ameran Legion and preserved by the rench government in the World War ichibit in the Musee de 1'Armee, Inalides, Paris, France. The museum, iunded by Napoleon as a home for is soldiers, was visited by thousands f Yankee dqughboys during the war. Farmers gave a grove of 200 trees nd the village a lot to the Elizaethtown, Ind., post of the American egion when it wanted a community ome. The ex-soldiers will erect a ?g clubhouse, doing all the work lemselves. New York city is hearing voices rom the clouds as Lieutenant B. W. [aynard, former army chaplain, is ying over Manhattan with a group I girl singers. The airplane is iuipped with a radio broadcasting 2vice.

Some people think that only those ersons who belong to a humane soiety are expected to report cases of ruelty to animals which they see or now about. This is a mistake, hose who are not members, as well s those who are, should notify the earest htmane agent or police ofcer when they know of the abuse r suffering of any animal. All comlunications are confidential. Cats that are about a neighborhood i the night are a great disturbance o light sleepers or persons who are 11. They are in danger of being atacked by dogs, and in the early loraing they may catch the birds that re getting breakfast for their young. one should keep a cat who is not rilling to take some trouble to have t well cared for. People who go away in the summer nd leave their cats to suffer are guilty of great cruelty. A cat that ias once had a home is quite unfit o take carc of itself. It will suffer ,nd perhaps die from hunger, thirst ,nd lonliness. There is a law against ban^oning animals, and the people ( 20 for 18c 10 for 9c Vacuum tins of 50 - 45c v \ , I who do this should be reported for breaking a law. i j A starved cat does not make a good mouser. Feed your cat well, give it , fresh water often. Do not put a ribbon or a collar on 1 your cat's neck. Cats have been i (caught on fences, bushes and limbs ! of trees by these collars and have not been able to free themselves. ! They have been known to strangle to . death. Much needless suffering would be prevented if but one of every litter i of kittens were left to live, for it is hard to find good homes for them. ; have one male kitten for the mother I cat, otherwise she may suffer. Cats are intelligent and affectionate and respond quickly to kind treat, n-ent. They care more for persons who are kind to them than for their homes.
