MOTORING “NECK MUFFS"
LONDON, Jan. 31. (/P)—Women
motorists who use open cars have
adopted a ‘‘neck muff” for cold
weather wear. It is shaped like an '
ordinary muff but less padded and
lined, and is easily adjusted into
position and it comes well round the
face and neck. There are no fasten
ings and the muff can be taken off
when the wearer goes into the res
taurant or theatre.
MUSICAL DRESSING GOWN
' The musical dressing gown is a
novelty in the world of feminine
fashion. This garment does not pro
duce symphonic sounds, but it carries
the semblance of them about on it,
so that its wearer may say quite
truly that she dresses to music. The
gowns are quilted about the top por
tion while big staves, clef's and notes
of music are embroidered in black
silk as a border around the bottom
of the garment.

OF AMERICAN LEGION
The second of a series of articles
on the aims and purposes of The
American Legion, which the Gateway
has been asked to publish, follows:
The American Legion is an organ
ization of World War veterans who
served honorably in the armed forces
of the United Statse. The Legion is
organized by departments and posts.
Membership is in the national organ
ization by affiliation with the post.
There are 57 departments, one in
every State in the Union and others
in Territorial possessions of the
United States and in certain foreign
countries. There are more than 10,000
posts scattered in every part of the
United States and throughout the
world. Membership in the Legion
does not impose military obligation
of any kind. It is a civilian organi
zation. Under the previsions of its
constitution it is absolutely non-poli
tical and no distinction of sect or
creed is recognized.
The principles of the Legion are
•set forth in the preamble of the con
stitution :
“For God and Country, we asso
ciate ourselves together for the fol
lowing purposes:
“To uphold and defend the consti
tution of the United States of Amer
ica; to maintain law and order; to
foster and perpetuate a 100 per cent
Americanism; to preserve the memo
ries and incidents of our association
in the Great War; to inculcate a
sense of individual obligation to the
community; State and Nation; to
combat the autocracy of both the
classes and the masses; • to make
right the master of might; to pro
mote peace and good will on earth;
to safeguard and transmit to post
erity thee principles of justice, free
dom and democracy; to consecrate
and sanctify our comradship by our
devotion to mutual helpfulness,
to mutual helpfulness.”
The Legion’s first concern is fo.r
the disabled veterans of the World
War. A National Rehabilitation
Committee, with general offices in
Washington and field men at strat
egic points over hte country, is in
close liaison with the United States
Veterans Bureau and is the center
of a nation-wide system of assisting
veterans in getting their claims ad
justed. It is assisted on technical
questions of care and cure by an
advisery council of leading medical
and surgical experts.
The Legion insists on the best in
care ana cure for the disabled which
is possible to modern medical sci
ence. It assists in obtaining the neces
sary legislation to provide proper
treatment for them and to insure jus
tice to them It suggests improvments
in the methods and precedure of the
Veterans Bureau. It seeks out the dis
abled, a thing which the government,
because of its limited staff cannot do
It helps to build up their claims and
pushes them until the most favorable
action possoble under the law is ob
tained. In one year the National Re
hababilitation alone got rewards for
lisabled men totaling $2,028,575.05.
