Veterans of Veterans of Foreign Wars. POST MEETING THIS WEEK. ‘Thursday, Equality—Walter Reed Post No. 284, Pythian Temple. The next meeting of the Council of Administration has been designated as a Constitutional Encampment, for the purpose of considering proposed changes in the department by-laws. These con- templated changes will be submitted in a report from a special committee ap- pointed under the provisions of a reso- lution presented to the council at its | November meeting. In addition to the regular council members, all delegates representing the six posts of this de- partment at the annual department en- campment_held last June, are entitled to sit in this session, to be held in the board room of the District Building on the evening of January 7. Commander Lockhead has announced the personnel of the 1929 Buddy Poppy Committee as follows: J. F. Rellly, chairman; D. J. Leahy, John Allen, F. Thomes, Charles Kohen, F. C. Lucas, C. A. Brodie, J. B. Jones, F. A. Living- ston, R. P. Belt. S. C. Harr, A. Grudd, F. Topash and the commanders of each post. These appointments are made subject to any change that may be de- sired by the incoming post commanders. A meeting of this committee will be called shortly by Chairman Reilly for the purpose of completing preliminary arrangements for the next Buddy Poppy drive in this city. Every post in this jurisdiction will, this month, elect a new set of officers. and these officers will be installed by Department Commander Lockhead at one monster installation meeting early in January. This very impressive cera- mony will be followed by a dance and general get together, participants o be the members of each post and auxiliary in the District. Department Inspector Joseph B. Gar- della is making his final visit to the posts of the department for the year of 1928. Federal, National Capital, Front Line and Columbia Posts have already been officially inspected, and the inspector plans to visit Equality-Walter Reed and Potomac Posts at the next meeting of these two units. The posts already examined are in good, sound financial circumstances and all show a decided growth in membership since the last inspection. last June. In a Christmas message to each de- partment of the Veterans of .Foreiga Wars, Commander-in-Chief Eugene Carver again stresses the need of caring for those Buddies who are still “carrying on” in the hospitals, through- out the country, and for those of our buddies who, due to unemployment and other reasons, are finding the path of life rather rough. He also urges the comrades not to forget the little or- phans at the V. F. W. Home at Christ- mas time. The local posts are striving to make the holidays more cheerful for the more unfortunate comrades. Relief commit- tees are getting ready to dispense bas- kets of good things to quite & few needy families for Christmas day and visits are being made to all the hospitals f the city where there are ex-service men The first annual ball of Potomac Post, held last Tuesday night at the Colonial Hotel, was reported a success, more than 200 members and friends at- tending.

By proclamation of Commander-in- Chief Eugene P.

In observing the date that marks the passing of nearly three decades of ex- istence, Commander-in-Chief Carver in his announcement from national head- National Capital Post elected its ne N e s s w ing Hale, Denver, a general who was cited for gallantry in action and the first commander-in-chief of the Vet- erans of Foreign Wars. Gen. Hal whose marks at West Point have never been surpassed, was honored by the Department of Colorado, Veterans of Foreign Wars, at a banquet in Denver last Wednesday, 29 years after a_group of veterans met in the State Capitol Building at Denver to elect Gen. Hale as their first leader. Out of this meet- ing grew the organization of the Vet- erans of Foreign Wars of the United States as it stands today. Col. John J. Le Fever, a past com- mander of John Stewart Post, No. 1, the unit that Gen. Hale first founded, presided as chairman of the program to honor the distinguished soldier. With him sat Mayor William Staple- ton of Denver, also a Philippine veteran, who acted as post adjutant under Gen. Hale when the veteran order was founded. Special programs have been outlined, tracing the growth and development of the Veterans of Foreign Wars, founded first as a local group of veterans to preserve the comradeship of their fight- ing days thousands of miles from home. At the meeting of Front Line Post Wednesday it was decided to proceed with the organization and equipment of a 21-piece drum and bugle corps. The post is inviting drummers and buglers from other posts of the Veterans of Foreign Wars to join the new corps, their respective posts to reimburs Front Line Post on a pro rata basis for SOLVED!
