Therein lies our real strength — the brotherhood that was tested in fire, blended in blood and matured to its full perfection in the comradeship ofpeace.” Adjutant Guinan Reports On motion of Donald Peck of East Haven the report of Commander Kelly was accepted. Adjutant Guinan of New Haven then presented a brief re- port in which he told of the many activities of the Legion during the past year and what good work it has done. 1"ollowing the reading of the re- ports . T. Alexander of Meriden, mentioned as a candidate for the of- fice of commander, stated that he felt a committee «hould be appointed to act on the recommendations made in the commander's report and any that might come. Donald Peck of Kast Haven sald that he was heartily in favor of such a move and on motion of M. E. Taylor of Hartford the fol- lowing committee was appointed by the chairman: Messrs, ¥idwin Lamb of Hartford, Alexander of Meriden, Congdon of Bridgeport, Williams of Norwalk, Cunningham of Norwich, Kyan and O'Donnell of Portland. Clarence Scarborough of New Ha- ven, treasurer of the legion, then pre- sented the following report: “It gives me great pleasure to re- port to you at this time ,the end of our department year, a balance in the treasury of $4,145.38. This is a gain of $1,648/02 over the balance of last year which does not mean that we have had a greater income than last year, but that we have not had the great deficit of last year to overcome. “Again I must call your attention to the remittance of your national dues and state assessments. Many posts began to send in these dues in the early part of January and Febru- ary but have not kept them up. Some posts have not yet remitted. I think you will agree with me that the an- rual dues intended for national and state headquarters should be turned in at once and not diverted to uses, even if temporary. “Our poppy sales to date have net. ted the state department $1,257.76. The overseas graves endowment fund rroved a tremendous success and one of the best things the l.egion has done this year. Connecticut over subsecrib- ed its quota, making a total contribu- tion of $3,000.11, according to our records.” Mr. Scarborough, as treasurer of the state fund, then presented his re- port for that branch of work after which the session was adjourned until 2 o'clock this aftefnoon with luncheon being served this noon at the Fiks élub with the Rotary club acting as hosts. Leon A. Sprague, former president of the club, presided at the gathering and announced that {nas- much as the delegates have had cnough of speech making there would he no speakers at the luncheon but an entertainment would be presented.
