Flier Spends Busy Day in Twin Cities of Missouri Wednesday nt Oakes, Sargent | W' Goose and Goat | Aid Legion Drive Ten men and a goose Thursday launched into a contest with 10 other men and a goat which promises a lot of fun for Bismarck ‘War veterans between now and Armistice Day. The occasion is the annual membership drive of the Ameri- can Legion, scheduled to close Nov. 11, in which a team of 40 and 8 members challenged one composed of other Legionnaires who are not members of the fun and honor society. The whole enterprise is under the direction of William Yegen, Legion vice commander and chairman of its membership committee. The goose and the goat come in handy, Yegen explained, because they serve to bring home to war veterans the necessity for paying their dues on time. The system is to take either the goose or the goat to the veteran's home and leave him there until his membership is paid. What will happen in the event the goose and the goat arrive at the same time hasn’t been figured out by Yegen’s committee. The goose is the mascot of the 40 and 8 while the goat is the traditional instrument de com- bat of the Legion team. 109 NURSES GATHER INCAPITAL CITY FOR S-DAY CONVENTION President,.Ruth..Wisnges .
