In the event these come in later, the post membership will show a fine gain over that of the past year, due, primarily, to the membership drive of a few weeks ago, when thirty-one new names were added to the roster. The new members were initiated at a meeting of the post Monday evening, at which Dr. Frank W. Blatchford, post commander, presided and con- ducted the ceremonies of initiation. The meeting Monday evening fol- lowed a dinner, at 7 o'clock, and a forty-five minute program by Axel Christensen, of radio station WHT. Dr. W. W. Hawkins, commander of Wilmette post, and Vice-commander Betts, of the Evanston post, were guests. There were about sixty post members present.
