Ill .^SiwiHs â- â- }l:- THE LAKE SHORE NEWS, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 13, 1920 LEGION COMMANDERS W%i PROMOTE PLANS FOR UNIVERSAL TRAINING Crater every Effort To Bring About Policy of Training Advocated at National Condition in Minneapolis . ' Commander Milton J. Foreman of the Illinois Department of the Am- erican Legion left Sunday to attend the important meeting of state com- manders at national headquarters in Indianapolis. The department heads were sum- moned by National Commander Franklin D'Olier to discuss the ques- tion of universal military training which is soon to come up before the United States Senate. All command- ers will be urged to center every ef- fort in bringing about the policy of training as advocated by the legion at the national convention in Min- neapolis. View of the National Commander, as w_ell as Commander Foreman, other state heads and prominent legionnaires have already been given to the Senate sub-committee on mili- tary affairs. Commander Foreman made three trips to Washington to testify before the body. This is the first meeting the department com- mander called and its effect is ex- pected to be far reaching. The en- tire country has expressed approval of the comprehensive policy of train- ing advocated by the legion and the national and state leaders are de- termined to carry through. Incidentally the meeting indicates the zeal with which the steps de- cided upon by the Legion are to be gone after for accomplishment. Bet- ter legislation for vocational train- ing and Americanization through the medium of the schools and by com- bating anti-American propaganda are among the next important moves to be made by the legion. NEWSPAPERS VALUABLE AS SOURCE OF INFORMATION Womin who Wanted Information about "The Big Fire" Found Newspaper Files Only Source ^"•SBW" "Can you tell me the date the Bap- tist church burnedâ€"I mean of course, the famous fire that all the old in- habitants talk about?" ' The librarian looked up from her work. "No, I can't tell you the exact date, but I think I can find it for you "quickly, for we have the files of the local paper since it was started. My impression is that the fireâ€"the big fire, as they call itâ€"was about 1873, and it won't be a very long job to look it up." She went to the stacks in the rear of the library, pulled out a dusty bound volume marked, "Herald, 1873" and spread it open on the table. "Ah, here it is," she said, after a minute spent in turning over the yel- low leaves. The person who had inquired for the date, a member of the woman's club of the town, sat down and read the article. "This gives me exactly the information I wanted," she said. "I thought it would," said the lib- rarian. "I fear most people do not appreciate how valuable is the local newspaper from the viewpoint of local history. In fact, it seems to me that it is about our only source. Only when an event gets into print is it officially recorded and filed for ref- erence. Flimsy as it is, the printed word of today is the counterpart of the ancient stone inscriptions that give us our records of a long ago yesterday. I consider the bound volumes of our local paper perhaps the most valuable possessions of this library." HOLMES TRAVELOUGES ARE LITTLE JOURNEY BY PROXY Two Lecture Courses at Orchestra Hall Promise to Be Very Inter- esting This last summer Burton Holmes spent many weeks in a motorcar, traversing France, Belgium, Alsace- Lorraine and the borders of the Rhine and Moselle rivers, taking pictures with which to illustrate the series of Travelouges which he pro- poses to give soon, in Chicago. This is not a series of "War Pictures" but is just a little journey by proxy,â€" bringing to the people of this vicinity vivid impressions of what the Europe of today looks like; not only battle- fields and scenes of devastation, but the sights and scenes in the principal tourist centers of pre-war days, as they are today, showing the changes wrought,â€" if any,â€"during the last four years. Mr. Holmes has arranged his ser- ies as follows: "Belgium," "The Battle-Fields of France," "Alsace- Lorraine," "Allies on the Rhine" and "Vanished Russia". Mr. Holmes will only give two courses this season in Chicago; these will be on five successive Friday evenings and on five successive Sa- turday afternoon at Orchestra Hall, beginning respectively February 19 and 20.
