Veterans of The Edward Douglass White Post, the American Legion, with the as- sistance of the St. Patrick Players, had srranged a benefit performance of “Leaw® it to Pierre,” to be given the night of December 14, at Carroll Hall The Veterans' Bureau announces there is no truth in the report that it contemplates reducing the mont’hly training allowance of disabled \e.t‘-‘ erans in vocational training by 2 per cent. Col. Forbes, director of the bureau, telegraphed to Hanford MacNider, national commander of the American’ Legion, that there will be no such reduction. 'AT the recent convention at Kansas City the American Legion went on record opposing such a reduction. It has been rumored for some time that the government, in view of what Is felt to be a gradual reduction of the cost of living, was going to cut the amount given disabled veterans in training for living expenses. “RBducation week" will be observed by the American Legion.

The 110th Field Artillery came into being at Camp McClellan, Alabama October 12, 1917. It was originally formed by the consolidation of the | District of Columbla cavalry and | artillery and the Baltimore bat- talion of fleld artillery, all of | which were in existence at the ttme of the declaration of war tw the United States. ! Batteries A and B of the District | of Columbia were consolidated to form Battery A of the new organiza- | tion, and Troops A and B of the| cavalry were merged to make up Battery B, while the remaining| Troops C and D made up the third| battery of the lst Battalion.
