However, it is time for something to be said before more heartaches, hard feelings and loss of sleep are brought on by officials of this place. We are speaking of the American Legion Build ing on Upper Bridge Street. Several months ago we wrote an editorial prais ing the action of members of the American Legion. Officials and members at that time announced that the Legion Building was being opened to the Girl and Boy Scouts, the Firemen's Auxiliary, the Ameri can Red Cross Bloodmobile and other organizations which wished to use its facilities. We were proud of the action and feel certain that nearly every citizen felt the same way. After several months, however, different offi cials were named and it wasn't long thereafter that the Legion Building was "closed" to the Scouts, the Bloodmobile, the Auxiliary, and other organizations. In recent weeks brawls, fights, profanity, abusive language and other charges have been hurled at the Legion. We want to defend some of the Legionnaires by stating that several former officials and members have found it advisable, or at least, desirable, to sever relationship with the Legion Port under its present administration. ' Frankly, we do not know the present officials of the Legion nor iare we in the name-calling business. We do know that the American Legion in the past has done a great deal for Marshall and the surrounding area. We know that they have helped in many worthwhile causes and have contributed generously to many projects. (The Marshall High School Band, for instance). Marshall is proud of its worthwhile efforts and its generosity in offering its facilities to other groups. BUT .... Marshall is NOT proud of the Legion's activities of late. One local citizen complained a few days ago about the noise from the Legion Building AFTER MIDNIGHT on a Sunday night. Another person spoke of unnecessary noise and vile language " . . . . late Saturday night into Sunday morning . . . ." It's a shame the American Legion Post should lose all its respect and commendations for achieve ments by allowing such conduct to continue in Mar shall. It'sJime something was done before it's too late. -L, Griffin's NOW OPEN On Marshall By-Pass OPEN DAILY FROM 7 A. M. TO MIDNIGHT COMPLETE LUBRICATION SERVICE JERRY GRIFFIN, Operator A lady on 6th Avenue was gro ping her way around in a circle, looking for something on the aide- walk, and apparently not being a hle to see. Passersby began to notice her and stopped in a sym pathetic and helpful mood. A she kept looking down, trying to locate the lost article, a crowd gathered. She was vivacious Mrs. Richard Kurtz, volunteer Red Cross worker, and finally she ex plained that she had lost a con tact lens and could not see out of that eye. The crowd intensifi ed its search, men got down on their knees, then a policeman ap peared and joined in the project. And where did Mrs. Kurtz finally find her lens? Right in her eye it having slipped down under the lid. Some of the people asked her how she liked contact lenses. Un derstandably, she just shook her head as she walked hurridely a-way.

Everyone is invited to attend or enter. Some years ago I sat next to genial, middle-aped man a t a reception and learned that he was Edjjar Lee Masters, the famous poet. We chatted and later cor responded and 't was a beneficial pleasure to know him. But with in two years, he was found al most starving in a local hotel, be ins: too proud to let it be known that he was poverty-stricken. .Soon afterward, he died. Now, just opened on liroadway, is a play entitled, "Spoon River Anth ology,'' based on the poem of that name, the most renowned of the work of Edgar Lee Masters. I wish it well and hope it does jus tice to the memory of the noted poet. Another man who reached fame and then obscurity before he passed on was the late S. S. McClure, in a way, one of the most influential men of his times. For not only did he inaugurate the first successful newspaper syndicate aid the first Sunday supplement, but he ushered i n the "muckraking era" in this country arounid the turn of the century. Some of our present-day laws, for example those on food and drups resulted from the ex posures brought out by these "muckraker" magazine writers, such as Lincoln Steffens and Up ton Sinclair. The word, "muck raker." first used in the modem sense by Theodore Roosevelt, is derived from the man in the great book, "Pilgrim's Progress" who was always raking in the muck but would not look up to see the briight things in the world.

First notice how often this word is found in the four Gospels only four times and only once in a doctrinal sense.
