Members .Of Women's Auxili
ary Are Hostesses To Vet
erans, Of World War
Tlireo hundred world war cx-sorvlco
men, .mombers of tho American Le
gion, with somo few others, were tho
guests of tho Women's Auxiliary of
the American Legion at a dinner giv
en Saturday evening Arnilatico Day
at the Chamber of Cpmmorco. In
this manner Mt. Vernon's observance
of Armistlco Day was broug'ht to a
fitting and' proper; clotfe.
Tho dinner was served at G:30
o'clock. Throughout the day a com
mittee 0f tho auxiliary, of which Mrs.'
Sarah TO. Hendlngton, auxiliary com
maiider, was chairman, assisted by
tho seven chairmen of standing com
mittees of tho nuxiliary, had worked
to prepare and make ready such a
meal as they knew would be ma3t
pleasing to a bunch of hungry sol
diers, airs. A. P. Taylor was chair
man of the K. P. They were assisted
in serving by a group of 25 young wo
mon, witli Mrs. lEarLO'Bryan as chair
man. "iVlieu the company -'had taken their
places at tho tables, grace was pro
nounced by the nev. L. W. Mulhnno,
pastor of St.. Vincent de Paul's Cath
olic church. When all present had
been sufficiently refreshed, Mrs.
Headington announced the speaking
program.
Tho Hev. L. W. Mulhnne was the
first snooker. He gave such a talk,
filled and overflowing with humor,
such as only he can give, and the
piquant flavor of which it is quite im
possible .to reproduce .in .type.
During the late war, Rev. Mhlhano
had been privileged to recelvo letters
from a great number ofiKnox county
soldiers who had gone overseas or
were in the training camps. In tho
course ot his talk, he recited some of
tho humorous and comical things they
had given him. Frequently he was
interrupted by tho laughter of his
audltorr.
VIi'o Confmander Edmund Budd of
Dr.n C. Stone Jr. post, American Le
gion, spoke briefly and happily In
acknowledgement .for himself and
comrades of the pleasant hospitality
of the ladles of tho auxiliary. He de
clared his complete conviction that
tho Mt. Vernon auxiliary is "the best
in Ohio." - Ho called for a cheer to
bo glvon the ladles. It was given
heartily, all standing. Past Command
er I.awronco Sperry declared 'Vice
Crnnmnndor Budd had not taken In
"enough, territory." Ho declared the
Mt. Vernon auxiliary to bo "tho best
In t.ho United States."

Pay. Ho spoke, at somo length, re
citing tho means by which tho Ameri
can Legion Is most liolptul to the ex
mvlce man. Thoes wlio now nro
ni'jmliers of tho legion ho ndvlrrd to
go out after tlow members, counucllns
thorn not to ceaso their efforts until
they hnve secured every man eligible.
Commander Wayne Wiggins of the
American Legion post at Frederick
town, fpok briefly, acknowledging
the generous and kindly hospitality
that had Included nil Knox county sol
diers n well ns tho30 from Mt. Ver
non. If, C. Dnvln, president of tho Knox
county me-moriaj building commission,
spoke nt some length touching iipon
tho 'Jnlnrost -tJio ex-servleo men have
In tho stmoturo soon to bo erected.
Of tho purchaso of tho sito, ho ns
Fumed they nlready nro aware. He
expressed tho hope they aro pleased
and satisfied with it. In this connec
tion, ho mentioned somo of tho many
difficulties tho commlssoln had en
countered before they wcro able to
secure a location.
Mr. Dovin mentioned also some of
tho "Impossible" Ideao that have been
suggested for Incorporation In tho
building plans. Emphasis was laid
upon the limitations placed upon the
commission by tho stato building
code. Many things suggested aro out
of tho question because tho building
code will not. permit them. Tho liopo
was oxpressed confidently, that the
building will bo completed at an early
date.
Mr. Dovin ccncludod his talk with
the observation that Armistice Day
properly should be a day of real re
joicVng. It, differs from Memorial Day
bocause It celebrates tho end of tho
war.
Mrs. F. W. Lonoy, in behalf of the
members of the auxiliary, expressed
their pleasure and satisfaction in hav
ing this opportunty to entertain the
veterans. The members of tho aux
iliary at all times, she said, are glad
to be of what service they can to tho
veterans.
A solo, "The Wide World Over," .
was sung bytfeoffrey Errett. This
being enthusiastically received, he
sang an encore number also. Mrs.
Earl O'Bryan gave two humorous
readings that were eminently pleas
ing. Mrs. 'Elsie Stillwagon sang
"Don't Bring Me Posies," and was
compelled to respond to an encore
nlso. ,
Tho last address was given by Supt.
A, V. Elliott. His first words were
spoken in appreciation -and tribute to
the Amerlcnn soldier whom ho liken
ed to that noblo Roman, Clnclnnatus,
who performed well the duty to tho
state to which he was called, and
when It was finished returned gladly
to his former occupation.
As a schoolman, he is interested, he
said, in tho educational work of tho
American Legion. Ho can conceive
nothing more .patriotic than tho stand
tho Legion has taken to wipe put 11
literpcy. He deems America fortu
nate to havo .such an organization as
tho American Legion .standing back
of her educational forces.
One of the best things tho Legion
can do, ho went on to flay, will be to
perpetuato the enthusiasm, ot this
Armistice Day. Ho was proud to havo
had a small part in the celebration,
for tho Legion is hack of tho schools
of America.
A sentiment that found expression
and which elicited strong "approval
was that "Everyone e'hould Ipvo Amer
ica. If he doesn't ho should get out
and llvo somewhere else."
This concluded the evening's pro
gram, but for some time longer tho
ox-service men remained, enjoying in
smaller groups further social pleas
ures and satisfaction.
