Show AMERICAN LEGION The Legion Fire Department (?) made a rush call Sunday morning, with Commander A. Edsel Christensen at the wheel of the city's big red engine going about "ten" miles an hour up Main Street, and upon reaching the ,,v.ugh Boy Monument he stopped and I said "All right fellows." "This is the Place," to start and so ! Main Street was polished or cleaned very nicely by our boys. Some of the natives down the street thought the flood of 1918 was upon them again, otherwise the work was appreciated ap-preciated by all and well done. I The' Next Fight I Our next fight is "pending" so Slim iBorg tells us, but if arrangements can be completed that he has been working on he expects to show Mt. Pleasant fans a real battle sometime in the 1 middle of the month. At our regular meeting Monday night after the usual business was concluded Mess Sergeant for the night, Vernon Brotherson and his chefs, Bill Allred and Floyd Brotherson told us to "fall in" for "chow" Of course we wouldn't listen to it at all but say, it all lasted good anyway didn't it fellows? Vernon says he's given the job up to , a regular chef for next time. Be there boys and see Ern Hansen do his stuff. (I don't think much of his one assistant but the other is sure to be good.) Our membership list is steadily increasing, in-creasing, Homer Bowen, a good hard worker for the Legion, come back Into the fold again, and now we got a city dad among us, Jim Jordan came back to our ranks and promises to be of much use to us. Dud Rowe & Co. was sure doing a lot of crowing Monday night and not unjustly either. They have something to crow about, what do you say fellows? We still want new members, cause we want to bet Salina in a membership member-ship contest, and incidentally help om old buddies. -J. Faireld Larsen. |
