Bookings 0 Orkney A unique resort, wonderful scenery; STAR, WASHINGTON, by Past Department Comdr. John Lewis Smith there were but two posts com- peting, the winner being the U. S. S. Jacob Jones Post, but the Americanism work of the Jane A. Delano Post was 0 noteworthy that the committee made a special honorable mention award to the Jane A. Delano Post. For _the second year the Vincent B. Costello Post has carried off honors for being the largest post from the standpoint of membership in the de- partment, and a new trophy, donated for the first time this year by Past De-! partment -Comdr. Frank L. Peckham, was awarded to this post. The donation by the Forty and Eight, honor and play society of the Amer- ican Legion of the District of Columbia, of round-trip transportation to the Boston national convention in October to the Legionnaire certified to the de- | partment for having secured the largest number of members during the year will be announced at a later date, as the work of checking the various con- testants had not been completed in time | for announcement of the winner at the convention last week. At the next meeting of the department Executive Committee the winner of the trophy donated by Past Department Comdr. Watson B. Miller for the most out- standing Legionnaire will be voted on. On behalf of William E. Spicer, chair< man of the department Membership jommittee, Chairman McGahan an- ndunced the following winners for mem- bership recruiting work during the past year: William E. Spicer Trophy for post membership officer whose post secured the largest number of members prior to December 31, awarded to Miss Mary E. Weide of the Post. The American Legion watch to the | post commander showing the largest | increase in membership was awarded to Dr. M. M. Fowler of Lincoln Post. The American Legion ring to the | membership officer of -the first post to | reach 100 per cent was won by Miss Winifred Nichols of the Jane A. Delano Post. By reason of the JBureau of Engrav- ing and Printing Post reaching its 1930 quéta, and also Lincoln Post, two rings were presented to L. H. Johnson and Thomas A. McDonough. Department Asjt. Howard S. Fisk announces that Legionnaires are now being registered by the committee for the 1930 Boston convention in order that the usual delay may be avoided on reaching the convention city. There will shortly be forwarded to all de- partment adjutants a supply of regis- tration cards, the cost of which is $1. About the middle of next month in return for this sum each person regis- tering will receive the official American Legion badge and book of tickets through the mail direct. It is felt that this advance registration will be of as- sistance to Legionnaires so that when | they reach Boston they will have their | official badge and tickets of admission to the various events scheduled during convention' week. The National Regis- tration Committee at Boston is en- deavoring to have as many as possible registered before the convention opens. | It expects to have 30,000 Legionnaires registered by September 1 and the greater portion of those going to Bos- ton not later than October 1. The regular monthly meeting of the U. S. S. Jacob Jones Post, No. 2, Amer- jean Legion, was held at the Thomas Circle Club last Monday. The post now has in its possession the ship’s bell from the U. 8. S. Triton, which was exhibited Monday night. This is an interesting addition to the st's collection, as most of the mem- rs of the U. S. 8. Jacob Jones Post, No. 2, were attached to the Triton dur- ing their enlisted service. Information as to rates. etc., for the national convention in Boston is now available. Those comrades who plan to attend the convention are requested |to communicate with Comrade Elsie Pinney, in order that reservations may be made. This 15 especially desirable in | case the trip is to be made by water | from New York. A number of side trips |are being planned, including one to | Montreal. The post stands fifth in the District of Columbia Department and | s0 will be entitled to fifth place in the | convention parade in the District. of Columbia delegation. Announcement of the winners of the Nation-wide post history contest of the American Legion was made at national headquarters through James F. Barton, national adjutant. The contest was sponsored by Eben Putnam, national historian, and the winners were se- | lected by a special committee of judges s n Pher “LACEY SPRINGS, VA, your vacation In_thi aylor's, Lacey Spring me: ater: horseback i rates. §7.50 ek: week end parties accommodated; ra NEW MARKI Pur vater and _1i Rirs. 3.
