WHY AN EX-SERVICE MAN
SHOULD JOIN AMERICAN LEGION
Because he is helping to take care
of his disabled Comrades. Tho Amer
ican Legion during tho pnst year
helped the disabled men more than
any other organization. Millions of
dollars have been procured for these
men. This alone should make the
real American want to remain a Le
gionairc. '
Because last year the Legion men
sent over $20,000 to France to deco-
rato the graves of those comradeB who
did not return. The men who fought
and who returned crave this amoount
to decorate those graves. More that
all the other citizens of the United
States gave. Isn't that a rrocd reason
for belonging to tho Legion?
Because the Legion is doing a great
deal for the veteran who is not dis
abled. By organizing and sticking to
gether we can accomplish things. The
legion put through ton laws last
year and has many more through one
or the other branches of Congress but
not completed.

On July 26, 198, our Special Garbage Truck entered service, equipped with a

On March 26 and Apr.l 0, 1919 tvo more trucks entered service. These are equip

,The road.ter entered service May 14, 1918.
These trucks have hauled crushed ttanc, sand, cinders, ashes, rubbish and garbage
continuously over phved and unpaved tlrcett and alleys in all kinds o( weather.
The consirnption of g" nd 'l bas been very low, the repairs small, and I consider

I am told the Model "F" truck, in imice from March 26, 1919, equipped with
hand hoitt rear dump steel body and operated by the Sewer Department is giving equally
