Will Invito Officers of Posts Here
to Attend Organ Recital on
"Armistice Day"
BELGIAN MUSICIAN TO PLAY
American Legion officers of the county
committee and of the seventy-seven
poits in the city will be the Rnctts of
John Wnnamnkcr, November 11, Arm
istice Day nt the evening 'orgnn con
cert in the WnnamnltCr store..
In the absence of n general celebra
tion of Armistice Day, this will be the
principal function in which the legion
will participate through the 'cpresenta
tlvesof the various posts throughout
the city.
The recital will be given by Charles
Jr. Courboin, the Uelglan virtuoso. The
program will include patriotic and na
tional numbers in honor of the former
service men nnd women who will be in
attendance.
Suggestions have been received from
the national headquarters in Is'cw York
as to how Armistcie Dav can be cele
brated properlv by the posts through
out the United States. Among the ideas
for not events are: League of neigh
bors' dinner, in honor of all world war
veterans: a parade, in which the G. A.
11., Spanish -American war veterans and
Ihe world war veteran' mav partiei
pate, a patriotic demonstration n citi
zenship ceremony, minature county fair,
municipal bonfire.
New Torlc headquarters have urged
the pests to visit comrades in govern
ment hospitnK Appointment of visiting
committees is recommended to perform
this legion duty. The bulletin, from
Franklin D Olier, director of state or
?nnl7atIon, reads in part:
"In the government hospitals through
out the country nre htill convalescing
many thousands of soldiers who were
incapacitated during the recent war,
either by wounds or other illness. These
men nre auxiouslv looking forward to
the day when their' physical disabilities
will have been overcome and they can
, once more follow their civilian pursuits
in life: The sense of appreciation for
the circumstances in which these men
nre placed, held bv nil of us who have
been discharged from the service, would
seem to make it incumbent upon the
members of the American Legion to
periodically visit the government hos
pitals in their particular localities and
to speak a word of comfort and en
couragement to these men, letting them
know that we, as members of the
American Legion, and as individuals,
ii-e very much Interested in their rapid
recovery.
"These periodical visits may be ar
ranged through the local posts appoint
ing n visitation committee to be com
posed of eight or ten members, all of
wh6m should be, if possible, wounded.

Why You Should
Consult the Oculist
WELIi - KNOWN
physician has de
clared that n o
less than 70
diseases affect
the eyes.
In other words,
In addition to the
usual refractory troubles that
cause had sight, eye troubles
may also be caused by each
of beventy diseases either
of the eyes themselves or of
other organs, and affecting
the eyes at the same time.
It Is as plain as the nose on
your face that the logical
thing to do In case of de
fective sight Is to consult no
one but the Oculist slnco
he Is the only one qualified
by medical and optical study
and practice to accurately
diagnose ant' prescribe
proper relief.
Glasses will be prescribed
only when necessary. There
Is no reason why they should
Influence the Oculist's de
cision, When they are necessary
have them made by a pre
scription optician.
