r Auxiliary Notes From V.F.W. The Veterans of Foreign Wars National Home Day will be observed Saturday, Oct. 2, by members of the Veterans of Foreign Wars and its ladies auxiliary. The national home, which is funded by membership of the Veterans of Foreign Wars and its ladies auxiliary was established in 1925. From a single farmhouse and farm buildings near Eaton Rapids, Mich, it has grown to nearly 50 units which include a health and education center, community center, day nursery, guest lodge, chapel, grocery store, administration building and homes. The home was founded to care for and educate widows and children of the V.F.W. and its ladies auxiliary. The children live in homes with a house mother or house parents, providing a family environment, and members of a family are kept together in the same house. The children attend public schools in Eaton Rapids and are given an opportunity to attend college or ttade school through the home scholarship program, which is funded by contributions from ladies auxiliaries throughout the country. To be eligible to reside at the home, the child or family must have a parent or grandparent who is a member of the Veterans of Foreign Wars or its ladies auxiliary. Children of any age through 18 are taken into the home. Presently there are almost 100 children residig^at the home. George Craemer, State of Illinois Comander xrf the V.F.W. and Peg Rainey, State of Illinois Ladies Auxiliary President will attend and tour the national home grounds on Illinois Day. They will be accompanied by other V.F.W. and ladies auxiliary members. The Ladies Auxiliary to V.F.W.
