pass on the case. The Legion has never indorsed a lawless action by a subordinate post. On the contrary it has always repudiated it and sometimes, as in the case of the Wyoming post, has expelled the offender from the organization.

YEARS

Cll TODAY

THE AMERICAN LEGION Announcement is made that the charter of an American Legion post in Wyoming has been annulled because, it is alleged, it tolerated gamblir.tr in its clubrooms. How extensive the gam

bling was is not known, but unless it was on a j

large scale, or there were other factors in the case which aggravated the offense, it does not neem probable that any other great national organization of young men, other than those of avowedly religious character, would have taken such severe disciplinary action in such a case. The affair serves to emphasize the lofty ideals of the American Legion. Its members are pledged to uphold the constution and laws of the United States. Gambling is unlawful, but the law against it, like the Volstead act, is not taken very seriously by numerous persons who respect other laws. They see no harm in playing a sociable game of poker, for example. There is card playing for money in many perhaps most clubs maintained by young men for social purposes. But the American Legion apparently takes the law against gambling as seriously as any other law and will not tolerate its violation by one of its posts. The annulment of the offending post's charter, while a severe punishment, must be approved as reflecting a stern determination on the part of the Legion to uphold the principles for which it stands. ' .With a membership running into seven figures it is inevitable that men belonging to the Legion should sometimes do unlawful things. They may do them in the Legion's name. Before condemning the Legion, however, let the national organization have an opportunity to

SOUSA AND THE MARCH John Philip Sousa, with his band, has begun his thirtieth annual tour. That is a noteworthy event. Sousa's indentity is strictly American, and the story of the stirring march music which lifts the feet of marching men loses none of its charm with age. Sousa believes in the band as essentially masculine music in contrast with the orchestra, which he characterizes as feminine. His secret, expressed by himself, is simply rhythm, and one may recall any one of his own famous marches as evidence of his mastery of that. The band anv zood band always remains the greatest

musical experience for the greatest number and, j

as Sousa has said, its secret is rhythm, tlaoorated it is the challenge it reiterates with irresistible repetition, until the pulses throb in sympathy. Nor is the band limited to the march. Sousa has presented wonderfully charming music of a semi-classical character although he has expertly avoided an endeavor to interpret essentially classical music through a medium confessedly not well suited to it.

But. in the open air particularly, there is a j

gay pleasure in the strains of band music few are able to resist, and few are those who have not some special memories of leafy evenings

where the band, not too closely abvious. fram-j ed the night in music. When Americans think j of these things they think of Sousa who, in all

the world, stands most definitely for the development and enlargement of band capacity. It is impossible to imagine America without th3 Sousa band and the Sousa marches, so essential a part of the national character have they stimulated. In the course of those 30 years one wonders how many Americans have heard Sousa and his organization? And how many have not? It is a certain blessing that Sousa, priding

himself on his violin-playing, has consented to give himself to band mastership.
