Neville, chairman of tho convention naval a it a 1 r s commit tec, who has been in Wash ington com plctlng arrange ments. Commander Nevlllo obtained the promise of Assistant Secretary Koosevelt that he would send ono bat tleship and a uumber of destroyers to participate In the program. Arrangements have ulso been made to have the Eagle boats now at Jack sonville, St. Petersburg, Tampa, Gal veston and St. Louis called Into ac tive service with a view to directing tho nnnunl cruise of the naval reserve men, who form their crews, to New Orleans. A Heel of 12 hydroplanes will fly from Pensacola to New Orleans a few days before the convention and will remain on the river for exhibition flights. While In Washington Commander Neville also arranged for Invitation to the naval authorities of England, Canada, Australia, France, Italy, Bra zil and Cuba for their attendance nt the naval show. A flotilla of subma rines, now, en route to the East from Mare Island, Cal.,' also may be a fea ture of the naval display. THE LESION'S SWEET SINGER Charles Young, Popular Tenor, Will Warble at the New Orleans y Convention. Down New Orleans way tho word's gone out, that tho American Legion's "sweet singer," CharleST Young, Is going to be on the j o b again this yenr at the big national con ventlon, n n d there's rejoicing. The thousands of Legionnaires who attended the Kan fins City conven tion and expect to go also to New Orleans, have been asking tor weeks whether Young will bo there. Young Is odlclal soloist with the National American Legion bund, and announcement has just been made tie will break away from his concert, oratorio and opera work to accom pany the band on a tour, and appear with It at the convention. He per haps is one of the best known of tho rminger singers, and nt" the Kansas City convention was In constant de nnr.d. Young" became a member of the ?rew of the U. S. S. Louisville In the early days of the World war, having pnllsted In the navy. lie then was chosen as soloist for the famous band of .Tolin Philip Sousa and toured with the bend on Its remarkable recruiting campaigns. Following his discharge from serv ice, Young started on an active and successful career as n public singer. He Is a member of the American Le gion nnd of Las Sbclete des 40 et 8 Chevaux, After the Fakirs. Persons who havo suddenly ac quired World war records, wound stripes and a desire to help other dis abled veterans by soliciting subscrip tions to equally bogns magazines havo so aroused tho American Legion and municipal authorities at Syracuse, N. Y., that the two forces havo combined against such fake soliciting. Anyono seeking a license to sell magazlnoi Is turned over to the Legion for Inves tigation. That Local Color.

Letting Him Down Easy. A rich man, lying on his death bed, called his chauffeur, who had been In ills service for years, and said: "Ah, Sykes. I am going on a long and ruggotV journey, worse than ever you drovoj me." "Well, sir," consoled the chauffeur, "There's ono comfort. It's down hill." American Legion Weekly. IS IN FAVOR OF SALARIES James Wicker, Jr., Director American Legion Tour of Europe, Urges Pay for Commanders. James J. Wicker, Jr., director of tho American Legion tour of Europe, t h I n k n depart ment commanders of tho Legion should bo paid salaries. Just beforo sailing from New York on tho S. S. Presl dent Koosevelt, which carried tho party to the bat tleflelds of France. Wicker sent a message to his comrades In Virginia, refusing to permit his linmfi to bo mentioned as department com mander In the election by tho state convention. Ills letter follows: "Tho department commander should devote his principal tlmo to tho Legion Its work, Its growth, Its welfnro should command his mind, his heart nnd soul, and should always bo upper most In his dally life. Tho position of department commander is a very high office and It is worthy of tho very best men in the Legion. It is a man-slzo Job, requiring tho very best efforts and tho hartfest work to handle It with tho grentest success. "Given a commander who would practically surrender himself to tho Legion, nnd who could make Its prog ress and success his chief aim and objective during his term of otllcc, wo would see this, Legion of ours expand and grow in membership, Influence and healthy nctlvlty almost beyond con ception. I am of tho sincere convic tion that if the Legion culled a man to serve as leader asking him to glvo practically his wholo time and provid ing for his support he would, If of proper caliber, consider that call as leading him to n wonderful service, just ns serious, as noble and as patri otic as that which brought him Into uniform against the eneftiy." The question la one which has been much discussed over nil the country by Legionnaires, nnd probably will come beforo the national convention at New Orleans. CHEERS FOR FORMER SOLDIER J. N. Hoffman, Disabled Ex-Servlce Man, Rescues Woman From Death in Lake Michigan. J. N. Hoffman, former service man, didn't stop to consider the fact that ho was only an In different swimmer and that a dis ability incurred In his nmiy serv ice made swim ming even more difficult for him, when he saw a woman, flounder ing in Luke Mich igan, off Ardmore beach In Chicago. Fully clothed, he rushed Into the water, his sole thought that of rescue. Spectators stood on tho bench and wntched tho heroic struggle. For many minutes they feared both Hoffman rind the woman would be drowned. It was night, and only by the lights of the beach could tho crowd watch the two dark forms bobbing up and down on the water. And there were cheers when Hoffman, exhausted, towed his limp burden onto tho beach. Tho woman declined to divulge her mime. She snld she had gone out for a drive In her limousine and decided on Impulse to go swimming beforo she returned home. She swam beyond the sandbar and, finding herself In deep water, became panic-stricken nnd shouted for help. She declared she would havo drowned In a few moments more had not her rescuer renched her.

Illuminated by 2S.000 electric lights nnd decorated with flags, banners and streamers, the downtown streets of Now Orleans will bo In holiday re galia during the Amerlcnn Legion na tional convention next October. For live days tho conventional names of business streets will ho thrown Into the discard and they will bo rechrlstened with designations moro appropriate to the Legion gath ering.

WHAT TO EAT The right kind of breakfast, ns any other meal, begins tliti day, beforo, which means, be- la to many house keepers tho most difficult meal of all. Of course, if you go without breakfast tho problem Is solved; It saves trouble, food, mm gives ono n few minutes longer In bed; however, tho breakfast habit Is fairly well es tablished, having been active for any number of centuries, so that tho housewife, present and to come, will probably still plan nnd execute break fasts. It Is wlso to remember thnf tho first meal should bo a happy, quiet ono, starting tho family off to their various duties In n cheerful frame of mind. There havo been no stntlstlcs compiled which tell us of tho tragedies, crimes nnd miseries which havo been caused by poor food, bolted in n wild and disordered household; who can tell the far-reaching effects of such condi tions? When proper thought has been given tho menu, thoro Is no reason thnt It should not bo vnried, as thoro nro countless ways of serving tho com mon things. Heavy, hearty fowls nro not good for Inactive people and when 'one feels stupid and dull an hour or two nfter eating It Is wise to look Into tho menu. Most people enjoy n bit of fruit In senson the first thing, then n dish of cereal of some kind, which, because of tho varluy, may bo different every morning; nn egg or bacon and toast with a cup of coffee, will bo sufficient for tho averago appetite. Hot breads, waffles, grlddlo cakes may occasionally take tho placo of toast, though tho season and temper nturo nffects the appetite. Southern Pudding. Take two cup fills of mashed sweet potatoes, add tho yolks of four eggs well beaten, two pints of milk, one-half cupful of sugar, nnd n teaspoonful of cinnamon; stir in lightly the white's of four eggs beaten stiff and turn Into a well buttered bnklng dish to bake.
