Executive is composed of men
who give freely of their time and
work hard for the benefit of
others; the members when called
upon to perform a task do so
willingly. The community as a
whole supports 'the Legion one
hundred per cent and without
this co-operation the efforts of
the Legion would not be so
effective. The writer was a non-

High praise should go to the
