THE 'Che. 0 f ADAMH SCHUMANN- - 1V1 HEINK, the great German musician, but greater American war mother, recently delivered a profoundly Impressive address before the American Legionnaires of Cheyenne, Wyo., in which she extolled the Legion, and In a voice still suggestive of her native land, she expressed with beautiful simplicity her sentiments for this, the land of her adoption. The war mother of Sehumann-Helnspoke when she said: "Just like you boys, I simply did my bit what every mother ought to do. I love it, America, because America took me into its anns and gave me everything. I was poor when I came. America was good to me so good to me. It made It possible for me to educate my boy. I have I had six boys and two girls. I have only four boys now. When the war broke out I saw my duty, my opportunity to pay back pay a little back for the goodness America had been to me. I could serve these people I adore and love. I was made a better woman by the war. As long as I can I will serve the soldiers the soldiers who were, and the soldiers now. I will serve with you any time you call." Copy for Thi Department Supplied by th American Legion News Servle.)
