Woman admires strength in man. To her theleave no hint of the grace and beauty concealed) thought of strength is always synonymous with ; the thought of man. Her ideal man is physically perfect. The athlete/ hidden behind mops of bangs or frizzes that dis- with his well rounded muscles and perfect sym-/ figure rather than enhance their natural beauty. metry evokes an admiration from woman that spindle legs and bony arms can never do. And what is true of woman and her ideals for man is likewise true ofiman in his ideals of wom- an. He, too, loves the physically perfect. If you’d win the admiration of the. other sex, go in for athletics. é UNCLE TOM’S CABIN On March 20th occurred the 69th anniversary | bf the publication in book form of Harriet Beecher Stowe’s deathless story, “Uncle Tom’s Cabin.” And it still lives, both in the cinema and on the speaking stage. You know, of course, that “Uncle Tom’s Cabin” was first published serially in the National Era, and that Mrs. Stowe was paid $300 for her effort Had it not been for a young Boston publisher, J. P. Jewett, who took the risk in its book publica- tion in 1852, the famous characters of the story would have been unknown to fame. He arranged | ppublication on a 10 per cent royalty basis. Its suc- cess was astounding. Before long eight presses were running to keep pace with the demand. ‘ Though slavery may be dead, the story of “Uncle Tom’s Cabin” will persist, and the souls of Uncle Tom and Little Eva, like that of John Brown, will go marching on. : TRY IT ANOTHER WAY The lever was man’s first invention.

Wopy fort the Americ IN BEHALF. OF DISABLED MEN Bentley Post at Cincinnatl Regarded as Model for Systematic Program for Work. | Robert E. Bentley Post of the Amer- fcun Legion at Cincinnati, O., has at- tracted national attention because of its activities in behalf of sick and dis- abled veterans of the World war. Its systematic program for work is regard- ed by Legion officials as a model to posts. ‘The work has been assigned to four conmittees: for hospitalization and compensation, hospital entertainment, sick members and employment. The hospitalization and compensa- tion committee takes care of all cases in which ex-service men seek to obtain their rights from the government. Its duties are to direct the applicant to the proper federal authorities and to follow up the case. The Red Cross has gided the post committee by stationing & worker at the club rooms at all times to handle emergency cases. Visits to each Cincinnati hospital where veterans are lodged are made at least twice a month by the hospital entertainment committee, which notes the general condition of the hospitals and provides entertainments for the patients. The sick committee visits all ex-serv- ice men in their homes as soon as the cases are ‘brought to the attention of the post) members. A free employment bureau for all veterans is operated at post headquar- ters by the employment committee. The Women's Auxillary of the post has assumed a large share of the work. This organization has a general chair- man of hospital work with a sub-chair- man for each hospital. At the General hospital a complete dinner ig set once a month. Cigarettes, candy, fruit and cakes are provided weekly at all hospitals, as are maga- zines and books. At Rockhill the men were supplied with piano and victrola, motion picture projector, knitting machines, pajamas, sweaters, caps, socks and other comforts. The Auxil- tary women have made sheets, pillows and bed sacks for the patients. Each man is interviewed at each visit and personal favors are executed whenever Possible. For the benefit of those men who are vocationally handicapped the Auxiliary conducts a shop inthe post elub rooms where, disabled men are employed in “the manufacture of wicker, bead and mat work. The articles are marketed by the women and the proceeds are turned over to the veterans. All caskets of ex-service men pass- {ng through Cincinnati have been deco- rated by the Legion women. Familles of Cincinnati men who died in the serv- fice are visited and sympathy extended. SAYS LEGION IS GREATEST Alaska National Executive Committee Member Points With Pride to American Organization, Harold F. Dawes, member of the National Executive Committee of the ; American Legion for Alnska, says that the American Legion is the greatest organiza- tion in the United States and backs up hig statement with the argue ment that “any or- as great as the people bebind it. é Political, fraternal ese “or -religious or- ganizations must be limited by the Prevalence of belief on the subject for which the. organization stands. The American Legion, drawing ts members from every type of organiza- ton and from practically every’ fam- fly in the United States, has the back- ing of the whole nation.” Mr. Dawes was born and educated in Wisconsin. When he was gradu- ated from high school he went West and finally settled at Wrangell, Alas- , ka, as proprietor of a weekly newa- paper. Later, the sold his hewspaper and attended Valparaiso University Law school, finishing the course in 1915. As a member of the’ artillery park unit of the First army, Mr. Dawes seryed in France. After his ‘discharge from the army he returned to Alaska and entered the practice of law at Juneau. He is a charter member of!

Any veteran in need of temporary shelter will be housed in the hotel for a reasonable jength of, time regardless of Legion membership. The project was financed by the Le gion and popular contributions, HORSES SELL HIGH.
