Reynolds Talks on Legion's ^ ork at Continental Club Declares Organization Is Built on Ideals Which Inspired Founders of the Republic. Sam Reynolds, past commander ofj 1 the Douglas county post of the Amer- j ican Legion, told members of the Con- ’ tinental elub yesterday noon at lunch- . eon in Hotel Fontenelle that the le- j sion is built upon the ideals which in ; spired the founders of this republic. "We have very definite ideas of what constitutes Americanism,” said ' Mr. Reynolds. "We do not like to be ! referred to as ex-servico men: we ore service-men and we are still per forming a service. We have a pro i gram and during the four years of j our existence we have accomplished things. There are now 1.000.000 members in the legion, with 3.000 in : Douglas county.

Turn Into “Flu” Rub on Good Old Musterole That ccld may turn Into “Flu," Grippe or. even worse, Pneumonia, unless you take care of it at once. Rub good old Musterole on the con gested parts and see how quickly it bryigs relief. Colds are merely congestion. Mus terole, made from pure oil of mus tard. camphor, menthol and other simple ingredients, is a counter-ir ritant which stimulates circulation j and helps break up the cold. As effective as the messy old mus tard plaster, it does the work with out the blister. Just rub it on with your finger-tips. You will feel a warm tingle as it enters the pores, then a cooling sensa tion that brings welcome relief. 36c and 66c, in jars and tubes. Better than a mustard plaster. .VriVBBTISCMKNT. KEEP LOOKING YOUNG It’s Easy—If You Know Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets The secret of keeping young Is to feel young—to do this you must watch your liver and bowels—there's no need of hav ing a sallow complexion—dark rings und*r your eyes—pimples—a bilious look in your face—dull eyes with no sparkle. Your doc tor will tell you ninety per cent of all sickness comes from inactive bowels and liver. Dr. Edwards, a well-known physician in Ohio, perfected a vegetable compound mixed with olive oil to act on the liver and bowels, which he gave to his patients for ysars. Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets, the substi tute for calomel, are gentle in their action yet always effective. They bring about that natural buoyancy which all should enjoy by toning up the liver and clearing the system of impurities. Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets are known by their olivo color. 15c and 80c.

Mr. Reynolds referred to the work being done by the legion to promote hospitalization for thousands of serv ice men. disabled physically or men tally. "The Douglas county post sent men to 3,000 jobs last y$*r.” he added. "We dispensed $12,000. not as charity? but to help members who were in need, a sort of whacking up propo sition. Some of the men who receiv ed Christmas baskets from up a year ago last month were out last Christ mas season taking baskets to others. “Last year we helped with medical and legal assistance, paid rent, sent coal, buried babies and otherwise helped. And we did not solicit one cent from the public. We gave en tertainments that had an amusement value. We do not intend to ask the public for money. "As on* of the many little in stances of the work we are doing through the local legion headquar ters, I will cite a case that was con cluded during last week. About six months ago. otir adjutant, Ilarry Hough, observed a man at the labor department and asked if tt was true that he was an I. W. W. "The man said it was true and be came rather hard about it. Hough said ha would get the man work just the same, but wanted to know wheth er he carried a red card. The man explained that when he went into Ahe 'service lie was promised his job back %rhen he came home. He returned home from war without money and found Ills job not there for him. Ho became fertile soil for the I. W. W., wlu) signed him up and he took a card. Through our labor department he was given steady work and his appearance changed. Hast week he paid for a legion membership and tore his I. W. tv. red card to pieces and renounced that organisation."
