LEGION MAN, STURDY HIKER llltnel* Kx-Boldier on Way Back From Washington, Is Completing 2300-Mile Jaunt. Romance still lies along the broad highway, according to H. H. Rufus,

r w

a climax to his adventures In Clarksburg, W. Va., In the form of “the only girl." Rufus, who is forty-four years old. an ex-soldier, a native of Danville, started out last November, bear Ing four sealed messages from the Danville chamber of commerce, which he was to “deliver In person" to the President. Stalking out of the White House six weeks later, he said: “I was all eyes and ears, looked Straight ahead, and got what I went after.” The hiker Is dropping In at American Legion posts when he wants to darn his socks or shave, and his stories have become well known. He started from his home town with with one cent and the Instructions neither to beg, borrow, nor steal. He carried a 14pound pack which, among other things, contained a cigar for “Unde Joe” Cannon. SENDS ‘NOTES’ FROM ALASKA Historian of Ketohlkan Legion Post Writes in Answer to Letters of Sympathy. "Please note following,” the longsuffering historian of the Ketchikan post of the American Legion In Alaska has written In answer to many letters of sympathy from buddles back in tbe States: 1. There Isn’t a gold miner In the post. 2. The thermometer has never dropped lower than five below. 3. The deepest snow In recent years was three inches. 4. Some winters pass with practically no snow. 5. Overcoats are often a nuisance in January and February. 6. Raincoats and umbrellas are commonly worn. 7. No one has even worn furs or snowshoes to a post meeting. 8. “Gold-fishing" is the principal industry. 9. No one reads by tbe northern lights or the midnight sun. The fact that people in Ketchikan ride in automobiles, and that the only dog sleds there are hot-dog sleds is hard to get across, according to the historian.

FINDS HIS LONG-LOST BOY Father, by Chance, Discover* Soldier Son, Missing From Infancy, in Washington Hospital. The “long-lost-boy” theme of the movie thriller has been discovered in

real life by the American Legion post at Flint, Mich., where a reunion has taken place between E. G. Morrison and his son, George, who is now a war veteran. More than nineteen years ago In New London, Conn., the elder Morrison and the

& && ’ I Si »-- 4'

boy's mother separated. The child of six months was given to the mother. She remarried and the boy lived with her until he was fifteen years old, when he ran away. He joined the navy, served overseas with the aviation forces, and was wounded. Last summer Mr. Morrison, Sr., was motoring In the East. A chance conversation with a passing acquaintance led to the discovery that his son was at that time lying ill in a hospital In Washington, D. C. The reunion was effected, and George Is now In business with his father In Flint.

Carrying On With the American Legion The Minnesota post of the American Legion is given credit for 43,202 good deeds to unfortunate buddles during 1921. • • • A surplus of $25,000 remaining from the Kansas City convention of the American Legton may go into a headquarters building. » » • Os the 300 ex-soldlers enrolled as vocational students at Pittsburg, Kan., who negotiated a loan, not one has failed to make full repayments. * • * Ladles are present even In the northland. A unit of the American Legion auxiliary has been chartered at Wrangell, Alaska. It will doubtless be named “The Arctic Circle.” • • • Compensation checks amounting to $323,447.80 were obtained for 4,924 exservice men and women by the American Legion’s service division, between October 10,1921, and January It 1922-
