Our Investiture ceremony was planned for February 5. It also has to be postponed until February 19 because the committee members are having a meeting. We are to eager to have them attend that we have planned it to theiiVsonvenience. I am afraid that the troop has *'postponed-itis" or something of the sort. This Friday we have been asked to attend the basketball game at the high school. We will be admitted free if four of the girls sell popcorn. To gain admittance we must wear a uniform if we have one. Those who do not have uniforms will wear the Girl Scout, pin. The new girls will bring their registration cards. Miss Althoff taught us a new singing game called "Turning the Glasses Over."

Braving a blizzard and zero weathtft", hundreds of sincere women traveled from all parts of the city and suburbs to express their hate for war. A The meeting opened' with the national anthem, which was sung by Don Sebastian, and at the .close_of__the meeting, the women all joined togethT er to sing "America." Two noted veterans of the American Legion were the principal speakers of the evening. They were Post Commander William J. Grace of the Veterans of Foreign Wars and Commander William J. Collins of the Cook County Council of ^he American Legion. Among other speakers of the evening were Mrs. George J. Aste, head of the Federation of Women, and Gael Sullivan, assistant to Mayor Kelly. Said Mr. Sullivan, "Any young man or woman who is impressed by the glamour and pageantry of war should take a trip to the Edward Hines hospital and visit the 'Isles of Pain.'" It was announced at the meeting by Mrs. H. W. Hartough, ouP regional director, that Mrs. Kathleen Norris, well-known author,' had accepted the presidency of the National Legion of the Mothers of America. Also, a wellknown radio commentator, Betty Barton. was appointed National Liaison Officer, bringing to the organization a background of experience and ability which will materially aid to the success of this nation wide group of women. Miss Barton's work will take her from coast to coast in contacting and co-ordinating leaders in the organization work. This organization began only a few months ago by three mothers of Los Angeles who protested openly that they did not want their sons to go to war on foreign soil. They are Mrs. Mary Ireland, Mrs. Frances Sherill, and Mrs. Mary M. Sheldon. So, from this unpretentious beginning it grew until today it is one of the largest non-political organizations of women. New members are enclosing letters with their applications telling of their urgent desire to do all they can to aid the Legion. Any woman is eligible to become a member of this rapidly growing nation wide group as long as she is an American citizen and a vot- She need not be a mother, but simply have the desire to help to keep our men and boys from ever again being sent to fight battles on foreign soils. Those of you who have not as yet become members of the Legion may do so by simply sending in your name to your county chairman, Mrs. N. Bdurelle, McHenry, Illinois. Remember it costs you nothing to join. There are no membership fees or dues of any kind. As soon as there is a break in the weather and driving conditions are better Mrs. N. Bourelle will call our first county meeting. We know that all of you will be interested to know that Mrs. H. W. Harough, our regional chairman and director of the Legion. and Mrs. George J. Aste. head of the Federation of Women, will both come out from Chicago to speak to you at the meeting. Watch this paper for the announcement of the date of the meeting.
