Mr. McCormack
joined the navy
M /-Io
when he was seventeen years old.
In 1905 he wns transferred from ap
prentice seaman to hospital appren
tice, and the following year was one
of those who administered aid to the
survivors of the famous turret explo
sion on board the U. S. 8. Kearsarge,
on Good Friday afternoon. He quit
the navy In 1908, but heard the voice
of the see again In 1915. Within a
year he was helping capture Vera ■
Cruz with the landing party that went !
ashore from the Atlantic fleet.
Before 1917 had ended he had es
tablished a hospital at St. Angers, and
Naval Base Hospital No. 1 at Brest.
One of the things he does not mention
about his career Is the outbreak of a
fire at Brest, during which he carried
out several helpless patients and near
ly ruined a couple of serviceable
hands. During the Marne offensive he
was on an operating team at Juilly.
The Legion thought so much of his
spirit and capabilities that they elect
ed him one of their national heads.

the St. Paul armory he tackled a t ig
contract and fed 600 men at cost —and
It didn’t cost very much at that.
Although Lambros was born in Se
derocastron, Greece, nobody minds be
cause nobody can pronounce it. And
everybody swears that he is more of
an American than many citizens of na

try for 13 years, during which time
he has developed this great passion for
seeing that people do not go hungry in
St. Paul, and become a warm friend
and helper to the American Legion.
“LITTLE CHILD SHALL LEAD”
National Commander MacNlder Offer*
Clever Fling at Editorial Com
ment on Hi* Youthfulness.
Being referred to as a “child” Is
all right if on* knows the trick of
turning the phrase. The New York
Times, In an editorial, referred to the
youthfulness of Hanford MacNlder,
commander of th* American Legion.
In the next speech MacNlder made,
he said:
“You remember the story of the
shaky young second lieutenant who
was suddenly called upon to take com
mand of a hard-boiled company. As
he stepped to the front, some private
In the rear rank muttered: ’And a
little child shall lead them.’ The of
ficer commanded the man who made
the remark to step two paces for
ward —and the whole company stepped
up.
“He dismissed them and ten minutes
later the following bulletin was posted
on the company’s board: This com
pany will assemble at 3 p. m. In heavy
marching order for a twenty-mlle hike.
And a little child shall lead them—
on a d—n big horse.’ ”
One Killed In 6TI Blare
Whiting, Ind. —One man was killed,
three were Injured, and a battery of
10 oil stills of the Standard Oil com
pany burned up when an explosion In
a single still started a fire Friday
which for several hours was beyond
control. The Intense heat from the fire
made a thorough Investigation irupos
Mble for some time with the result
that there were rumors that the cas
ualty list was much larger. These
proved to be unfounded, however.
Damage was estimated at between
$1,000,000 and $2,000,000.

POSTAL IMPROVEMENT
WEEK IS OBSERVED
May 1 Sees Inaugurated First
General Campaign of
Kind in Service.
Without the Postal Service, business
would languish In a day, and be at a
standstill in a week. Public opinion
would die of dry rot. Actional hatred
or prejudice only would flourish, and
narrow-mindedness thrive.
It is the biggest distinctive business
in the world and it c*mes nearer to the
Innermost Interests of a greater num
ber of men and women than any other
Institution on earth. No private busi
ness, however widespread, touches so
many lives so often or sharply; no
church reaches into so many souls,
flutters so many pulses, has so many
human beings dependent on Its min
istrations.
“Postal Improvement Week" has 1
been set for May 1, by the Postmaster I
General. This Is the first general cam-|
paign of Its kind In the Postal Service
for several decades. Business men
and their organizations, large users of;
the mall, newspapers, motion pictures,
advertisers, and the entire organiza
tion of 326,000 postal workers are to be
enlisted In this country-wide campaign J
of Interest In postal improvements.
Your help la vital. Address your let
ters plainly with pen or typewriter.
Give street address. Spell out name
of State, don’t abbreviate. Put your
return address In the upper left hand
corner of enve;ope (not on the back)
and always look at your letter b*;'o<a
dropping In the mall to see If it Is
properly addressed. This car* In the
use of th* mall* is for your benefit and
speeds up the dispatch and delivery
of mall matter.
If you have any complaints of poor
service make them to your postmaster.
He has Instructions to investigate them
and report to the department.
COURTESY
It sticks in human relations like i
postage stamps on letters. The;
POST OFFICE DEPARTMENT ex
i peets it to be used by its postmasters
and employees in dealing with ths
I public.
Help them in its use beginning
with POSTAL IMPROVEMENT
WEEK. May 1-6, 1922.
THANK YOU
WITHOUT STREET ADDRESS
YOUR MAIL IS DELAYED
AT OFFICE OF DELIVERY
The Dead Letter Office has been in
existence ever since Ben Franklin
started our postal service. Even then
people addressed mail to Mr. Ezekiel
Smithers, “Atlantic Coast,” and ex
pected Ben to know just where Zeke
lived.
Perhaps they had Zeke’s address in
letters up In the garret, maybe a chest
full of ’em, but then It was easier to
let Ben hunt Zeke. Today people are
addressing letters to John Smith, New
York. N. Y m or Chicago, 111., thinking
Uncle Sam can locate him, which Is
just as incomplete as was Zeke’s ad
dress of yore. The Postoffice Depart
ment asks you to put the number and
street In the address. It helps you.
How do you expect the Postal Clerk
to know whether you mean Trinidad.
California, or Trinidad, Colorado?
ALWAYS SPELL OUT THE NAME
OF THE STATE IN FULL IN THE
ADDRESS.
“MORE BUSINESS
IN GOVERNMENT*
This apt phrase was used in Presi
dent Harding’s first message to Con
gress and applies particularly In postal
management where postmasters are
being impressed with the fact that
they are managers of local branches
of th* biggest business in the world.
HERE COMES A STRANGER!
Let’s make our post office look neat,
Mr. Postmaster. Straighten up the
rural letter box, Mr. Farmer. Tidy
up some, Mr. Rural Carrier. First
Impressions are lasting. Maybe Mr.
Stranger, taking notice of these Im
provements. will come back, bringing
you benefits. Start these with “POS
TAL IMPROVEMENT WEEK” May
16.
HUMANIZING THE
POSTAL SERVICE
“There Is no unimportant person or
part of our service. It Is a total of
human units and their co operation is
the key to its success. In its last
analysis, postal duties are accommo
dations performed for our neighbors
and friends and should be so regarded,
rather than as a hired service per
form*? for an absentee employer.”—
Postmaster General Hubert Work. )
