URGE UNIFORMS WORN Oil MEMORIAL DAY; LEGION TO COLLECT WORLD WAR RELICS
I ' A strong plea for the -wearing of the
unuorm on Memorial Day, because of the good feeling It engenders for veterans of the World war, made by Commander. N. A. Powell, wa a feature of the meeting of Harry Ray Post, No. 65, American Legion, held Wednesday evening, May 24. . .- The matter came up in connection
with the discussion- of Memorial Day
Benjamin Ball. Lester Leiter, Carl Asbury, Harry Smith, Horace Parker, Frank McCoy, American Legion. Horseshoe Team Members of a horseshoe tournament team to take part in the Community Service tournament on the South Tenth sreet courts were announced by Clarence Englebert as follows: J. D. McDaniel, R. H. Burgess. C. A.
plana and the parade of former. service ! Coyle, Robert Morrison, Clarence En
men to be held on the afternoon of May 31. Commander Powell sai,d: "You men have Jno SdeaT'of ; the emount of good feeling that results among the Civil war veterans and the Sons of Veterans when the World war veterans turn, out. in uniform. Some of you do not like to .put on the uniform because of the -heat, but we should remember the men who fought in the faded blue uniforms. We owe . them something and wearing the uniform a few short hours Is little enough for us to do." .Commander Powell "also called the attention of post members to the fact that efforts are to" be made to have the grave of every World war veteran decorated this year, and information concerning such graves should be turned over to Horace Parker, chairman of the Memorial Day committee of Harry Ray Post Relic Collection
A movement to have World war
relics belonging to post members col
lected and placed "In safe' keeping in the post rooms was started at the
suggestion of Dr. W. L. Misener, Wed
nesday evening. Dr. Misener called
the attention of the post members to the fact that many: relics are now lost in homes of .the, cjty because of lack
of proper care. - - The aim of the post in the future will be to have collected such relics as the owners care to have turned over for exhibition purposes, and these will . be, placed in the post rooms, properly labeled to show the owner and details of their history. Dr. Misener was appointed chairman of a committee to Investigate the matter, w-ith other members .to be announced at a later date., . . Flrlno Squad Personnel. Despite the approach of hot weather, ice is costing, the local post of -the American Legion less than it did last
winter. This fact was brought out in the report of a member of the house committee who called attention to the fact that reduced prices were now prevailing on pop, for sale in the post canteen. . - Purchase of a new ice box brought about the reduction in! the ice bills. Where the bill formerly was for from 600 to 800 pound3 of ice per week, the new ice box consumes but 200 pounds weekly. Announcement of the personnel of the American Legion firing squad t serve at Earlham cemetery on Memorial Day morning was made by Horace Parker, chairman of the post Memo
rial Day committee. Members are : George Kilgus, Frank Kilgus, Carl Kilgus. Charles Wirts, Herbert Bulach, O. D. Lee, Charles Carrol and Paul Andrews, with Lt. Ray Keck commanding. - . Grave Committees. Committees to decorate the graves of World war veterans have been appointed from the Sons of Veterans and American Legion posts. One member represents each organization at each cemetery. Those announced Wednesday evening were:Lutheranian . cemetery: Clarence Englebert, American Legion, and Harry Besselman, Sons of Veterans. St. Andrew's cemetery: Leo Weiss, American Legion Isaac Essenmacher, Sons of Veterans. St. Mary's cemetery: Frank Kiser, American Legion, Frank Caskey, Sons of Veterans: Earlham . cemeterv: Paul Nolte.

are the latest to be admitted to mem
bership.
" A motion to appropriate five dollars
for the decoration of graves of vet
erans overseas, was passed as was, a
motion to send a" letter of thanks to
each member of the company which
helped in the Mothers' Day celebra
tion at the high school
A motion instructing the adjutant to
Bend a letter of thanks to Frank Srayer, past commander, who donated a gavel and ballot box to the organiza tion, was passed unanimously. Reports on Convention. Reports on the Greenfield sixth dis
trict convention were made by Past
Commander George B. Hunt, Commander N. A Powell and Adjutant Ray Umpleby. Dr. Hunt said: "Statements from all over the district are very favorable to the legion. The membership of the American Legion in the sixth district is now up to the mark of last year, and a num
ber of posts have pledged an increase in membership for the coming year. With the improvement in employment conditions, a number of men have told me that they wanted to Join, in this city." . v That the town of Centerville has one of the best American Legion records in the district was the statement made by Dr. Hunt. He stated hat Centerville has 48 men and pledged two more for next year, that being the entire number of men still outside the organization there. Points Out Benefits Commander Powell, speaking on his observations at the convention, said: "Why are successful men members of the American Legion? Men who have high standings in the business and professional world, men who would not benefit materially by passing of a bonus bill, and who have no selfish
reason for belonging to such an organization are members of the American Legion.
"There is only one answer. They
are there to help the ex-service man.
Commander Gregg, at the head of tnj
Indiana department, had a good law practice in Vincennes, but when he
finishes his term as commander he will have to start in all over again, because he has lost his practice. . "It will not be long, say five years,
before you men will appreciate the American Legion much more than you do today. The American Legion is for the man who is down and out, the man who is in the hospital or the man who ought to be in the hospital. It you men could see the list of things the American Legion has done for these fellows, you would lose no time in getting out and telling others why they 6hould join."

Beginning Tomorrow Our Great
Expect to Develop New Study of Chemistry (By Associated Press) . WASHINGTON, May 25. American chemists expect the study of the
chemistry of colloids as distinguished from the chemistry of substanceswill be given a marked impetus by the impending arrival in the United States of Prof. Theo Svedberg, of the University of Upseia, a leading European
authority on the subject. He will engage in research work with American scientists this summer at the University of Wisconsin. "Oolloidial chemistry" ha3 been described as the analytical study of "bubbles, drops, grains, filaments and iilms," or as "chemistry of systems
consisting of finely divided material
in a state of suspension." It has been
declared that clothing from hats to
shoes food, furniture, paper, ink and even the human body, are largely
colloidial.
