The third of a series of articles
describing the purpose and activities
of the American Legion follows:
Departments and posts take an ac
tive pait in rehabilitation work, par
ticularly in seeking out and contact
ing men needing help. Splendid work
is done by the Legion Auxiliary,
made up of mothers, wives, daughters
and sisters of Legionaires, in assist
ing families of the disabled. More
than half a million dollars was spent
by the Auxiliary in 1926 for this work
alone.
Laws affecting compensations, hos
pitalization and rehabilitation of the
disabled have 'been constantly liberal
ized and humanized by the Legion
efforts. Benefits under the ReeJ
Johnson bill during the first year of
its operation, alone totaled $16,493,
866 to 39,433 disabled, among them
being shell-shocked, tubercular, blind
and totally deaf veterans. In the
first six years the Legion obtained
from Congress appropriation for the
care of the disabled totaling $2,377,
082,671, a yearly average of $345,313,
000, of which $17,487,750, was for
hospital construction and enlarge
ments.
In its Americanism work the Le
gion aims to encourage a better cit
izenship and to foster throughout the
Nation better opportunitise for edu
cation as a preparation for citizen
ship. Emphasis is placed by the Nat
ional Americanism Commission on
the duties and responsibilities of cit
izenship. Citizens are urged in a non
partisan way to vote.
Education in all its phases receives
the attention of the commission. Mat
ters which have come in for its par
ticular attention are civics, illiteracy,
physical education, stricter enforce

CLOSES F0H SHORT TIME
The Seldovia jadio, operated inde
pendently for a number of years by
Adam Lipke, has discontinued opera
tions and will remain closed for the
next three months, according to the
owner and operator, Mr. Lipke, who
was an arrival in Seward this morn,
ing on the S. S. Admiral Watson.
Accompanied by his estimable
wife, Mr. Lipke is southbound for the
States where he will purchase new
equipment for the building up of his
plant. He plans to be gone only a
month making the round trip on the
Watson. Mrs. Lipke however, will
remain in the States on an extended
visit and will probably go to Hono

lation and naturalization of the for

striction of imigration to check the
flood of those entering the United
States is consistently advocated. Rev
olutionary radicalism and extreme
pacifism are opposed at all times.
Guidance is given in projects for
civic betterment. Hundreds of these
are carried on each year by Legion
posts in their local communities all
over the country.
American Education Week was in
augurated by the commission in 1921
and is carried on in cooperation with
more than 150 organizations each
year. A national flag code was form
ulated by conferences held in 1923
and 1924 at the call of the Legion.

The Saga of an Executive
Being an Outline of the Career
of the “Man of Business.”
RESSING the button" has
become the symbol of
modern man's power to
command. The progress
of the business man to
day up the ladder of success, is
marked by the number of call but
tons on his desk.
Stretched lazily on a well-worn
bench in an obscure corner of the
i
office and reading a detective story,
is the office boy. A buzzer over
his head sounds out. Annoyed at
the interruption, he looks at the in
dicator board to see just who has
interrupted his reverie. Perhaps it
is a clerk in the accounting depart
ment who has rung. If so, the
youth finishes the chapter and then
drags himself languidly in answer
to the call. If it should happen to
be the quick, snappy ring of the “big
boss,” however, the boy jumps and
hustles into the private sanctum.
A few years later this same office
boy, now grown to manhood, steps
for the first time into his own “pri
vate” office. To be sure, it isn’t
very private, after all—just parti
tioned off from the room set aside
for all the clerks. But on his desk
there is a private telephone and j
the desk is ornamented with two!
new push-buttens. One is used to
call the new office boy and the
other, sometimes, will bring to his
side a stenographer who isn’t at
the moment engaged with taking
dictation from some department
executive.
A year or two of experience and
the “two-button” man one iine day
discovers that a third button graces
his desk. It is to summon his pri
vate secretary, a new acquisition
and one which marks another real
milestone in his journey on the
road to “success.” Now, at last,
he has emerged from his “second
lieutenancy” in the world of big
business.
The next push-button. is a little
slower in coming, but when it
L
J
does arrive it means that the ris
ing young executive has become so
burdened with responsibilities that
he must shift some of the details
to less important shoulders. He
has been given an assistant, a sort
of right hand man, to relieve him
of detail.
Gradually, to the steadily climb
ing young man, these buttons mean
less actual work and more time
for "executive thinki To the
little dry batteries behind the desk,
however, each new button means
more work.
From now on, the mother-of-pearl
buttons come more rapidly as ex
ecutive responsibilties grew. De
partments are organized one by
one and placed under the direction
of the maturing man.
It is years later that the last of
ihase buttons is added to the al
ready imposing row on the desk of
our hero. Since our first acquaint
ance with him, he has climbed
from the very bottom, to the peak
job of the business. He is now the
“big boss.”
And what is this last button for?
Surely he already has all he needs.
But—watch him. It is mid-fore
noon. He ha3 completed his dic
tation for the day. Two or three
callers are, waiting in the outer
office, but he has given word that
he “can’t be disturbed.” He reaches
for that last button and presses it.
A metallic click sounds at the door
leading to the outer office. That
button closed an electric circuit
which locked the outer door. The
“big boss” gets up from his desk,
goes to a small locker, opens it and
takes out a set of golf clubs. For
the next half hour, he practices
putting, swinging and “stance” on
the soft, green carpet of his big
office!
Then he goes back to his desk,
presses the last button again and
the little dry cells send an electric
current which unlocks the door.
The “big boss” is back on the
job.
