Dickinson, Jr. are not to be denied the legion men if they have anything to say about the mat- ter. Commander Dickinson has tossed his kelly in the circle aspir- ing, as it were, to the dignity of a township justice. He tendered his resignation at the Tuesday session, but the men demurred and eventually flatly declined to hear of such a thing. The justice office carries with it no salary, consequently, the legionnaires argue occupancy of it does not violate the rules of the legion. Commander Dickinson will remain on the job. The ings. men promised to vote for him too, so everything is rosy. The Execu- tive committee made the ruling when the question arose in the mind of the prospective jurist. Commander Dickinson issued an appeal to members of the Post to attend to the matter of dues. Those who are not paid-up are likewise not in good standing. And the Income tax is duc as well. Reports circulating in the village carrying far and wide the baleful gossip that legion men were spending 'the session evenings in wanton _specu- lation in conjunction with the highly cultured pastime of bridge-whist, came as a-severe shock to the mem- bers.

One of those intervals came this week when bandits backed a truck up to the basement door of the C. R. Erwin home at 535 Roslyn road and, according to the police, loaded up ap- proximately $2,000 worth of choice liquors and disappeared into the se- "curity of the great city.
