"Pay your poll tax and make no
attmept to dodge jury duty," is the
order sent out by the American Leg
ion to it? two million members, as a
part of the year's Americanism pro
gram. "Unless our Legion members
accept their full duties as citizens and
make use of their franchise, they will
be classified in the ranks of peace
time slackers," says the national chair
man of the Legion committee. "The

To buy a doughnut or not buy a

man, of 225 N. W. 16 Ave., Miami.
Fla., who had two cents remaining of
a once respectable personal estate,
cave the problem hi3 serious attention
and then, waiving the doughnut,
bought a postage stamp instead. This
he placed on a letter to John Thomas
Taylor, vice-chairman of the Ameri
can Legion's legislative committee at
Washington.
"I have never known poverty before,
but I know it now," he wrote, "It is
so long since I have tasted fresh bread
that I would not know what it tastes
like."
The case, according to Taylor, is
typical of thou.Tnid3 of others of ex
service men who find themselves down
and out, with no one to turn to for
immediate assistance. Legion officials
are making a neffoYt to see that the
two cent stamp yields better returns
than the doughnut. Rayman said that
he had been employed in Chicago as a
trainman before the war, but was un
able to do this work now. He said he
was an expert truck driver.
The famous surgeons, Drs. William
and Charles Mayo, will treat former
soldiers of the world war in a $200,
000 hospital which the American Leg
ion post of Minnesota will erect. Pa
tients will be charged according to
their ability to pay, as determined by
Legion officials.
Plans have been worked out by the
Nebraska American Legion whereby
basketball team3 representing the
greater number of '320 posts in the
state will contest for county congres
sional and state championships. The
arrangements were made by the Leg
ion athletic committee; Harry H. El
lis of IIoIdiTge, Lum Doyle, state
Iwxing commissioner, and Walter
Raocke of Central City.
The tournament for the all-state
American Irion title will be played
on March 17 and 18, in some central
town. Effort will then 1 made to
match the Nebraska champions against
the Legion winners in other states,
and a try made to place the Cornhus
ker ex-service players on the top of
the list.
The Nebraska Legion is also de

man, howexer, there will be enough fat
without adding any extra.
Grind the trimmings. Spread out
one-half the meat and sprinkle the sea
soning on top. Place the other half of
the meat rbove the seasoning; then
grind again, thus thoroughly mixing
the slices. Put the sausage in a pan
and add the one-half cup of cold water.
Mix the knead thoroughly with the
hands until the sausage becomes very
sticky and dough-like. The two grind
ing, the water and the kneading with
the hands make it possible to slice the
sausage and to fry it without having it
crumble. Stuff in casing or muslin or
pack tightly in a granite pan or fry it
down for future use.
This recipe will give a well seasoned
sausage. The sage may be reduced to
suit the taste.

The pile of flints still to bs broken
was a very large one, thought tha
stone-breaker, as he gased at it discon
solately between his bits at a larjr
sandwich of bread and cheese. A min
Ister came along and gave him a
cheery "Good morning," remarking
afterward that he had a deal of work
to get through yet.
"Aye," said the eater, "them stones
are like the Ten Commandments,'
"Why bo?" inquired the genial par
son.
