"FIGHTING JOE" IS
NATIONAL CHAPLAIN
"Fighting Joe" Is the title which
has been bestowed by general consent
on Rev. Joseph Lonergan of Durand,
111., recently elected national chaplain
of the American Legion. And the title
It not airy tinsel, either. It has a
background.
For It harks bads to kid days when
at a boy with two fists who knew
bow to use them and Father Joe
sometimes found employment for
tbem In ways other than earning
money by working on railroad tracks
to go to college. The story goes back
to the time when he was a famous
fcotball star, "the miracle halfback*
at Stf; Viator's college.
The nickname recalls a baseball ca
reer culminating 1^ a batting average
for his last year of .448, rather a big
league average. It carries a picture
of Father Joe, the ecclesiastical stu
dent at Montreal, tying up his priest
ly soutane above bis knees and slid
ing bases like Ty Cobb. It Is remi
niscent of the young priest at Aurora,
HI., who appeared In the pulpit one
day with a bulking black eye? fruit
of too strenuous endeavors to show
Rev. Joseph Lonergan.
t N
his eighth-graders in the school league
he organized how to take 'em hot off
the bat.
Then comes tlf? time when Father
Joe took up his work with the Eighty
sixth division organizing at; Camp
Grant. He was without military
status and without salary, but he car
ried on. While there he lectured to
all officers at Camp Crant on the ne
cessity of religion. Shortly afterward
he got a commission as first lieuten
ant chaplain, and began his extraordi
nary activity In the fighting game. It
was he who spoke at Camp Grant's
greatest 1 day, July 4, 1918, when h?
addressed 50,000 of the division gath
ered there. A sentence stood out,
which was flashed over the country:
"A man never became a man until
he got a good punch on the nose."
Then the Argonne and the Vosges.
Father Joe says that when the shoot
ing was close he became Dugout Joe,
but the boys don't say that. They
think >he's all man. The chaplain re
organized' a band for the Twelfth en
gineers, "the band with a personality,"
chosen by the French mission to ac
company them when they took over
Alsace and Strassburg from the Ger
mans. He was transferred to the
Ninetieth division and remained
with them until he was discharged.
Membership in the American Legion
followed soon and then his election
as department chaplain for Illinois in
1922. . In 1924 he .was unanimously
named national chaplain. That's the
story of "Flghtln' Joe" Loneryan,
whose record at the front with *he
men endeared him to all veterans and
makes him a very popular "padre."

MANY POSTS AFTER
MEMBERSHIP HONORS
* ? ? ? V - I
American Legion posts throughout
the nation have been extremely- ac
tive for some weeks In signing up
members in advance fDr 1925, accord
ing to Frank E. Samuel, national di
rector of organization and member
ship. Posts have been tumbling over
themselves to claim honors for early
membership returns. Never before
has there been such a contest and
such a scramble for recognition in
this work, it is declared.
First dues for 1925 were received
by national headquarters from Joe
Williams post at Farmer City, 111.,
which had signed up 14 men for 1925
by the first of October. The first post
in the country to sign up more mem
bers for 1925 than it had had in 1924
and to send the dues to national head
quarters was Victor Cornell post, Pcll
can Rapids, Minn. Fowled post, Fow
ler, Ind., the home post of Thomas 8.
UcConnell, department commander
for 1925, ws a close second. Other
posts which were among the first to
go over the top in this hot contest
were Pulaski post, Detroit, Mich., and
Roy Cole post, Grand Ledge, Mich.
The Florida and Connecticut de
partments are staging a contest to
see which will have the larger per
centage of 1924 membership signed
up for 1925 by the time the bells ring
out on New Year's eve. Florida sug
gests that the losing department buy
the delegates and alternates of the
winning outfit a big dinner at the
Omaha convention of the Legion next
year.
Florida appears to be looking for
something. That department won
only three of the big Legion prizes
offered at the 1924 convention. They
carried home the trophies for the
largest percentage of membership
signed , up by March 1 over the pre
ceding year's membership, for the
largest percentage signed up for the
^year over the preceding year's total
and that for the lnrgest number of
man miles traveled' to the national
convention at St. Paul. Florida sure
ly basked in the limelight.
Colorado, Utah and Wyoming are
mixing things V In a little friendly
rivalry, Western style. The winner
Is to be the department which signs
up for 1925 the .largest percentage of
Its 1924 membership and will receive
a stand of department colors present
ed by the losers.
Organized German Labor
and Escort Companies
Do you know who directed the des
tiny of the German prisoners of war
taken by American troops during the
late fuss abroad? His name an^ title
Is Lieut. Col. WilHam Brlswold Gough,
at present deputy county surveyor of
San Diego county and a member of
the Snn Diego post of the American
Legion. Colonel Gough is a veteran
of the Mexican border trouble, enlist*
ing in the army in 1916. When the
World war included the United States
he was sent to France with the com
mission of captain. With the Fifteenth
Field artillery he was wounded In ac
tion and then was placed on the gen
eral staff, where he took complete
charge of the prisoner-of-war depart
ment of the A. B. F., and in that
capacity organized the German labor
and escort companies.

the Hollywood post of the Legion are

Sadie was a dear little girl. She
had a pretty^oice and pretty ways
and she bad alittle dog namef Snow.
Snow was very small and very fluffy.
His hair was very curly and he had a
great deal of hair. ( -
Sometimes Sadie wished her hair
would curl so easily ! n .
Snow enjoyed life very much. He
had -a warm box for his bed. It had
soft cushions in it and he could carl
up and'go to sleep.
Then Sadie had a little neighbor
friend who was fond of Snow and who
played with him, too.
Snow thought life was very nice in
deed for a little pet dog with a de
voted mistress such as Sadie, and with
so many friends, too. v *> ,.
But one day in the winter time Snow
got into the cellar. It was fun there.
He-had a beautiful tirte.
' He pl^jred in the coal bin and
thought it was lots of fun to see the
coal go coasting down from the coal
piles.
And lie loved to see his own fluffy
white paws become so changed In
color. That was very amusing.
Well, after he had been playing for
a long time In the cbal bin he heard
Sadie calling for him.
He was sure he would surprise her.
He was sure sfie would think his
.little black feet were very cunning.
But when he came rushing up from
the cellar Sadie seemed too aston

islied to be as happy as he thought
she would be.
"Oh, Snow I" she said. "How you do
look!" ,
And wiien he wasted to bound Into
her lap, she said, 'Oh, no, down!
DoWn, Snow, you naughty dog !"
Well, she didn't like his black paws
as he had thought she would !
He had been naughty. That ex
plained perhaps why lie had been hav
ing so very good a time. He was
being naughty !
/ Sadie's friends came to see her that
very afternoon and they laughed at
him.
"Well," said Sadie, "you wouldn't
laugh if you had only given him a
bath two days afeo, and how look at
him!
"But he does look funny I will ad
mit."
Only you see he is so used to being
1 petted, and I simply can't pet him
while he is like that
"He'd simply ruin everything I
had on."
Everyone seemed to ngr?e that this
was so. . . V, ; . s I
Well, be had a bath that very after
noon and then he couldn't go out be
cause he had to keep very warm so
as not ?o catch cold. ^
And he was covered up with a
blanket and watched over carefully.
Not very long after this Snow was
taking a walk with Sadie and with
several of her friends.
It was a nice day but the day be
fore bjid been wet and rather foggy
and the snow looked dirty dnd horrid.
Now his name was Snow and when
be had looked dirty everyone had ex
claimed In horror? though some1 had
laughed seeing him as he had been.
At any rate Sadie had rushed at
once to give him a bath.
But the snow all around was dirty
and no one seemed to think It was
ftanny. ?
No one seemed to be laughing at It,
nor giving It a bath, nor doing any
thing about cleaning it.
Well, people were very strange.
Snow had made up his mind about
that. , ?
But they were nice In spite of every
thing. That was true/too.
So be enjoyed life as much as ever,
only when he couldn't understand
th'ngs he gave op trying jo understand
them. or puzzle them out.
It was much better for a little dog
not to worry his head about' some of
the curious ways of humans? It waa
much better that way. t - ;
The main thing that counted was
that humans were nlce?nd that Sadie
was nicest of all and she was his
mistress, his own dear, dCar mistress!
