LEGION NEWS
(BY JULIUS E. HILL)
(Post Publicity Officer)
The evening of April 15th, 1943
should be long remembered by
members of Theodore Roosevelt
Post No. 30 of the American Le
gion; as on that date was held the
first meeting in their new quar
ters at 24th and Parker streets.
The Ladies Auxiliary met with
them. And Mrs. Milsap it’s secre
tary, speaking for Mrs. Prestige,
who was absent, made it clear that
the auxiliary would give it’s full
support to the program sponsored
by Roosevelt Post. And it is sel
dom that men fail in their efforts
when fighting shoulder to should
er with a group of hard working
women, such as make up the mem
bership of the LADIES AUXIL
IARY.
There are so many things that
women can do much better than
men. And In regards to a legion
post—OUR POST to be more spec
ific-they should be gi-ven more
opportunities to lend their assist
ance. For after all that is the pur
pose of the organization; the very
word AUXILIARY means to AIDE,
to lend support to the main body.
And >if the truth was known in this
man's country there are legion
posts still in existence that might
not be were it not for the help
they received from their LADIES
AUXILIARY, believe it or not!
And the program sponsored by
' Roosevelt Post certainly can use
1 all the help it can get from its
S auxiliary!

Space will not permit of many
j items of interest being mentioned
in this column at this time. There

JOY
(BY MRS. H. R. GREENFIELD)
Help to the helper if we but
knew from day to day.
So many troubled hearts to soothe
So many pathways rough to
smooth.
So many comforting words to
Say.
To hearts that falter along the
way.
There is joy in one’s heart arul
there is joy unspeakable for us
at all times, under all conditions
if we but realize it—joy in living,
to breathe, to live for those we
love. There is gladness in joy and
mirth to be filled with exaltation.
One ought to claim joy and happi
ness for its the birthright of each,
one to be joyful. Let it he express
ed in song ,verse, in flowers, in
music or serving others. There is
joy to be with congenial friends in
their rich, pleasant conversation.
Where one is joyful there can be
no sorrow. Just let Us remember
there is a silver lining in every
cloud. One must look for the Sil
ver lining, for it is always some
where ever present when one is
burdened with unhappiness of
whatever nature and soon there
, will be joy in every heart and sing
ing will take the place of gloom.
(Joy in pictures, in good books, in
the beautiful woods and forest. In
the spring rains come—a joy of de
light. we know not the why, as wc
walk or work in the refreshing
drops of rain it is like showers of
, blessings. Let Joy rain completc
| ly. it's a little taste of Heaven.
Whatever comes let joy be sup
| r€me and soon there will be no
j room for one's dissolusions. Spend
your time promoting joy in all your
dealings and thereby dispelling
every unhappiness in the world
and everyone will smile again, just
like your mirror will give back to
you all you are in the mirror.
Smile in the mirror and a smile
will surely come back to you with
joy unspeakable.
MAN AS
A UNIT
We have been considering man
ias a unit, showing how man, as a
| spirit, has several bodies or ve
! h^les otf consciousness. Man is
not only a unit, a separated Ent
ity, however; at least, he is that
only in a relative sense. For he
is of a family, a community, a na
tion, one of the inhabitants of the
earth, related to other worlds. God
Thou, has made me known to
friends whom I knew not. Thou,
has given me a seat in homes not
my own; Thou hast brought the
distant near and made a brother of
a stranger. Through birth and
death in this or other things where
ever Thou leadest me it is Thy will
just the same. Thou art the One,
companion of my endless life! In
the Word of God was Life; the Life
is in the Word. The kind words
we speak because although we
speak them on the Physical Plane,
they are the food from which the
Spiritual essence is taken for the
building of Etheric words. This
combined with service builds the
same body, which has its various
organs correlated to the organs of
the Physical Body. Being of a cos
mic character Christ speaks in
parables but hidden meanings
were given to His Disciples in pri
vate! This meaning was not gfiven
to the ordinary of people or to
make the Bible "an open Book of
God!” It is generated by the mind
given by the power of light and
darkness (the Lord of Mind,) and
whereby all nations are being
slowly but surely drawn together
in a Universal Brotherhood of
Love, regardless of race, sect, or
Color. The New Jerusalem with
its pearly streets and sea of glass
and all the other pious and moral
fancies of the church people are
there also.
As an Aquarian Prayer for the
Universal good we pray that the
spirit of Divine good and brother
hood may enter the hearts of the
people of every country of the
Earth. That God may send such a
Spiritual power down upon us that
it will awaken every soul to the
value of Spiritual things. The
value of creative efforts brings
competition and greed and fear and
jealousy of other persons or nat
ions. Dissolve, O God, these qual
ities from the minds of the races
for without them we will banish
Poverty, crime, incompetjency,
waste and War from the Eearth.

ice will meet at Mrs. M. E. Me

WAR TIME RAILROADING ;
HARD ON RAILROADERS j
CHICAGO. April 22 (ANP) Rail
road men and women here echoed
agreement with the article on rail
roads released by Sutherland Pen
linger, chief of special services in
Washington, last week in which he
described the Rigors through wh'cn
those who work on and with trains
are experiencing. This city, the
headquarters for more sleeping car
porters than any other center, has
beer, especially conscious of the
difficulties facing Pullman men
as well as workers in other cate
gories.
I
Many Pullman porters are work
ing with troop travel almost ex
clusively. About 50,000 soldiers a
day, 1,750,00 a month, are traveling
hither and thither on government
orders and this does not 'include
the men going home on furlough.
Sometimes it appears as though
the high command was merely
playing checkers and seeing how
many troops it can shuttle about.
About half of the total supply of
Pullman cars and 17 percent of all
day coaches in the country (about
3,000 are in troop use. If the war
department insisted on having ail
the Pullman equipment it could
use, then civilians would have no
sleeping accomodations at all for
all the Pullman cars would be
carrying troops. As it is they use
tourist cars frequently and sleep
soldiers two in a lower berth and
one in an upper. About 250 lounge
parlor and sleeping cars have been
rebuilt with three tiers of berths
and are used mostly for movi ig
sailors, the berths evidently being
somewhat Wke their hammocks.
Pullman porters are working
harder than ever in history. The
great amount of baggage they
have t ohandle. the constant mak
ing-up and breaking down of b
necessitated by the packed cars
now running when frequently they

sofas and Settees instead of In “up- j

George’s boys” these days.
Dining car waiters are equally
hard pressed. Many of the most
skillful men have been called bv
S elec live service. Newer waiteis
can’t give the same quick deft ser
vice. Working long hours, on1
some days from 5:30 in the mom- j
ing until one or two the next mom i
ing, they serve continuously. For-1
merly if there were more than 100
persons on a train to be served, a
second diner was added. Now a
single diner crew of 10 to 13 men
will serve as many as 700 meals a
day with scarcely any let up be
tween what were once meal Per
iods. The traditional custom where
by colored passengers coming in
to a car were piloted to any empty
table has likewise gone into limbo
in most cases. Colored and white
passengers, soldiers and civilians
are thrust together and like it if
they want something to eat, that
is above the Mason-Dixon line.
More and more Negro waiters are
running in charge w-ithout white
stewarts.
Women are being pressed into
service. Thus far no railroad has
given a colored girl a job as a
clerk or typist but Several are us
ing them in handling light bag
gage, the number of car cleaners
is increasing, many stations are
using them for lighter janitorial
