IN COMMAND OF FLOOD CAMP
Lieut. M. L. Gelscnberger, Valuable
Aid at Natchez, When Missis
sippi Went on Rampage.
After the American I&d Cross nt
Natchez, Miss., hnd obtained from tho
government sev
eral hundred army
tents to houso
flood refugees, It
was found that
the government
had failed to send
anybody along
who could direct
the erection of
the canvas shel
ters. Fortunately
members of the
Natchez American
Legion had had
experience with practically every sort
of tent from "pup" tents on up. After
having rescued hundreds of people
from housetops and treetops, the Le
gionnaires took upon themselves tha
Job of erecting a tent city to house
these refugees.
A Legion doctor laid out the camp
from the standpoint of sanitation, and
M. L. GelsenberKer. a former lieuten
ant, was made commandant of the
refugee camp.
More than five hundred people were
taken care of during the first few
days, nnd as the flood area widened
the number rapidly Increased. The
Legion's woijc In the care of Hood vic
tims received unstinted praise from
every quarter of the country.
NAME IS NOT IN DICTIONARY
"Legionnaire" Not Yet in Official
Guide Promises to Hold for
All Time to Come.
The American Legion Weekly com
ments on a New Zealand Newspaper's
use of the word "legionary" to denote
a member of the American Legion.
"The word 'legionary' has an honored
place In the dictionary which 'legion
naire' has not as yet, the Weekly
points out. "But all the sentiment,
and It Is a case where sentiment
counts, Is on the side of 'legionnaire.'
'Legionary' connotes an embattled Ito-
nmn, toting a shield and spear for
Julius Caesur. 'Legionnaire' calls to
mind (from the French point of view)
a regiment of foreigners of the French
Foreign Legion.
" 'Legionnaire' ,ns Indicating a mem
ber of the American Legion, seems too
firmly established to dislodge. We
must remember that all Legions Ro
man, Foreign nnd American had one
thing In common: They fought In
Frunce."

CARE OF FRENCH WAR ORPHAN
Argonne Association's Plan May Bo
Used for Unfortunates in
United States.
A plan for the care and training of
French wnr orphans, worked out by
the Argonne association, an organiza
tion formed as a permanent memorial
to the Americans who fought In
France, Is said to be functioning so
satisfactorily that a similar organiza
tion mny he formed for the caro of.
orphans In the United States.
The Argonne association was formed
In 1018 by n group of Americans In
terested In French orphans. It hns as
Its motto: "To provide for the child
who has no parents, n home nnd n
family life; to secure him his birth
right of health; to educate him nnd
truln him to earn a livelihood; to de
velop his character that he may bo
come n useful and an upright citizen
and to do these things so well nnd so
economically that others shall follow
this example Is the aim of the An
gonno association."
The orphans cared for under the as
sociation's plan are placed In prlvatt
homes In a community whero they art
really wanted. They are not "farmed
out." There Is a community school
playground and vocational training
center where the children are dall
brought together to get their mental
und physical development. There nr
three such centers In France where
the orphans are given threu dtstincf
stages of training.

ecutive became

It had not been

Although he was over draft age and
a member of the state senate when

Court Robbed of Imposing Timepiece
Under Its Very Eyes and With

Thousands of law-breukcrs have

an ingenious crook posing as a repair

Tho Assyrian Is popularly recalled
as coming down "like u wolf on tho

Assyrians are moro humane than they

that tho destltuto widow bo supported
by her nona "ub tho bride whom ono

Instead of tho Assyrians being whol
ly abject, their letters, says Prof. A.
F. Olmstend, of the University of Illi

minds with tho greatest plainness, tho
kings making pathetic appeals to those
whoso support they would win. Their

those in western Europe In the Middle
ages, with charters of freedom from
taxes, and trading rights to tho four

men in Hamburg, Germany,

In n recent report pictures the trouble

Employers complain Hint laborers of
both sexes, nftcr nn eight-hour day,
bndcrtuko to do outside work for other,
people which' cuts down their efll
clency on their regular Job. Workers,
on tho other hand, consider it an In
terference with their personal liberty;
if their employers try to hold them
to tho eight-hour plan. Although the
lnw was passed to safeguard the health,
of tho workers, they appear to hava
lost sight of Its real Intention, nnd tho
authorities show reluctance to prose
cute cases of its violation. In tho ho
tels and cafes, especially, It has been'
dlfllcult to enforce the eight-hour day;
waiters arc loath to give up their
chances for more tips during overtime.
