Develops Other Types Then he made Ophelia the parent of

a nw type which included General

McArthur, Mrs. Theodore Roosevelt,

Richmond, Rhea Reid.Robin Hood and

other splendid roses to his credit.

This meant the ruthless discarding of seedlings lacking perfection. With his experience, high Ideals and standards he found a peculiarly potent parent in the Ophelia rose. Combined with Mrs. George Shawyer, Ophelia gave him Columbia; with Mrs. Charles Russell, and an Ophelia seedling, he obtained the famous Rose Premier, which was so largely in demand in 1919-20. In each of these two notable roses there is said to have been created a higher standard of sturdiness, color, beauty of form, fine foliage, endurance and freedom of bloom for rose growers. Their success has been phenomenal.

(Continued from Page One.) compensation to all the workers who

were making bullets, the clerks in Washington, the letter carriers and the contractors, why should it not pay something to the man who went out

to stop the bullets? I want to tell you that we are right on this thing and it is going to win. "We used to read about strikes, while we were in the army. Five thousand strikes during the war and all of them involved a raise in wages. Did you ever hear of a man having his wages raised while he was in the army? One man goes out on a dangerous mission, another stays at home and draws two and three and four times as much money as in peace times. Isn't it right that the man who

went out and took the burden on his

shoulders should be compensated? It

cannot be done in money alone. They

haven't nerve enough In Washington to turn down this adjusted compensation bill. Chaplain Speaks The adjusted compensation matter was touched on briefly by Chaplain S. L. Martin, of Liberty, who spoke before the Btate commander. "England has passed a bonus bill, France has passed a bonus bill, Belgium and Italy have passed these bills, and all without opposition from the civilian population," he said. "They realize their obligation. France has a per capita

debt of $1,218 and American has only $125 of per capita debt, yet this country Is talking of being too hard up' to pass such a bill at this time." "This bill did not originate with the American Legion. The government drew up the bill and asked the advise of the Legion about it. The whole measure has been gone over by members of the federal reserve board and pronounced economically sound. . Sees Great Future.

Chaplain Martin predicted a greater

future power for tne organization that It has at present. "I think the time is coming when this organization shall

mold and direct all the affairs of this country," he said. "And when that time comes I am confident it will support the things that are best for the country. I do not think the war is over. We as members of the American Legion and the American Legion auxiliary, realize that fact. I feel that a word should be spoken for the auxiliary. The greatest battles and the greatest sacrifices were not fought on the battlefields alone, but by the women who stayed behind. T believe that the American Legion should be vitally interested in the place where it makes its home, the community. It should let up on asking for things and try to do things that will help the community." Reference to American Legion Sunday by the Rev. Martin in closing. "True patriotism is the highest type of service. The slogan of the organization, 'For God and Country,' should be remembered. We cannot do a finer thing than to blaze before every citizen that' idea, For God and Country.' Survey Mentioned Plans to make a survey of the service men of the state were mentioned ty the commander and the state chaplain. This survey when completed will make up a set of files which will be invaluable in the future, they said. The files will give information regarding the military career of every service man in the state.

Col. Young was the ranking colored officer in the army, a graduate of West Point and a personal acquaintance of General Pershing, with whom' he graduated. He died in Africa recently, where he had been sent by the United States government to act as military adviser to the republic of Liberia.

Mills Given Surprise By Company Employes Joseph H. Mills, president of the Richmond Casket company, was pleasantly surprised Friday night by the employes of the company in honor of his birthday. Employes of the firm met in the assembly room of the factory. A special entertainment was given. Mr. Mills was kept away from the assembly room until after the whistle had blown Friday night and then taken into the room. He was greeted by a chorus of 12 small girls who sang "Happy Birthday." The little girls were daughters of employes of the plant. Community singing was enjoyed fol-

! lowing the big basket supper, under

the direction of P. H. Slocum, of the Community Service, and Ora Stegall. Martha Thomas sang "That Wonderful Mother of Mine." This selection was very appropriate inasmuch as the mother of Mr. Mills, who is 81 years old, was present. Leca Fay Bullerdick entertained the 250 persons present with several fancy dances.
