Membership Drive Will Close May 12 Mrs. C. F.

They must reach national headquarters in Indianapolis May 18, later arrivals not counted, and so Mrs. Phillips is urging that all North Dakota units | a Continuous Showing - 2 to 11 Now Showing All Talking Feature -PASSENT ‘ON TRIAL) FREDERICK LYTELL cous macceeo or ARCHIE MavO get their remittances in to her before May 12. This is particularly neces- sary, she says, because North Dakota is now in the big ten and was rank- ing third on the last report, with Minnesota in the lead. “Chant, the North Dakota horse, can win,” Mrs. Phillips says, “and although I spent the last week-end in Minneapolis and visited at our sister state’s headquarters, it will not hurt my feelings at all if we wrest the pole away from them. We know that North Dakota will reach the quota set by national headquarters but will we reach it by May 12? The Legion is staging a big drive from April 12 to May 12 and we cannot fall down on our part of the job. Both Legion and Auxiliary quotas count in the Derby race; each organization counts separately in the sweepstakes.” Mrs. Phillips calls attention to the fact that it is not “just to win that we are working so hard.

Their pic-' are: 27,000 disabled veterans who need our help. Each added member is an add- ed assurance of help to them.” Mrs. Phillips visited the 26 North Dakota veterans at the Fort Snelling hospi- tal last week and they told her, of the N. D. Auxiliary, “ alone have made life bearable.” One visit to them, she says, make a good Auxiliary member forever. ze * Mrs, Mabel C.
