These words were stated when Orville Easterday Unit 189, American Legion Auxiliary met for their regular meeting .lune 7, conducted by Mrs. Robert Wardman, president. Marshall County Welfare Department Director. Mrs. Barbara Rockaway, spoke to the group and remarked many years ago there were laws to protect animals but none to protect children. The first recorded case of Child Abuse was in 1880 and it was years before the neglect of a child was recognized legally. Child Abuse occurs in any social status but is more frequent in younger people. Many interesting and informative points were made known by Mrs. Rockaway and the group appreciated her attendance at this meeting. It was announced that Tammy Whitteberry had received the American Legion Auxiliary Scholarship which was rewarded on Graduation Day. Mrs. Linder Schmeltz reported on the visit made to Legion Day at Indiana Veterans Home. Lafayette.

The winners were Chantel Sheaks. David Pansier and Kevin South. I he Americanism chairman read a special poem entitled “Those We Honor" honoring the firemen and police of our country. She read excerpts of The Firing Line concerning the athiest, Madalyn Murray O'Hair and her religious views. The members were urged to attend the Flag Day program. June 14 and the ringing of the freedom bells on July 4 and to fly their flags, especially on these two days. It was agreed by the membership to have the meetings convene at 7:30 instead of 8:00 p.m. on a trial basis. The meeting closed with the Prayer for Peace. “From the cold and snowy campsite at Valley Forge to the cold and airless landing site on the moon — it has flown proudly. The American Flag symbolic of everything this nation represents. Join with the women of the American Legion Auxiliary in honoring our Flag. Remember — It’s more than a piece of cloth!” And then there was the Texan who wrote in his will: “To my son 1 leave $3 million, and he’s lucky 1 don’t cut him off entirely!” Looking for a gift for the man who has everything?
