{Legion Will Try
To Get Out Big

 

lndianapolis News ,

The American Legion is to begin
this month a nation-wide campaign
to get out the vote in November.
The Legion doesn't care how the
vote goes. and it is not concentrat-
ing upon candidates or issues. li's
object is to increase the number of
people who take the least part a
consolentious citizen can take in the
conduct of government. As matters
now stand. this is a popular govern.
mciit by a small minority of the
qualified oters. Only half the voters
go to the polls. and in many cases
the choice is determined by one-
third of them.

A number of national organiza-
tions are interested iii getting out
that portion of the vote which favors
particular legislation. There have
been several laudable campaigns to
increase the whole vota. But this
is the first time that a strong na-
tional organisation has, trio . through
the agency of its hum us local
branches. to persuade people to go
to the polls and register whatever
opinions they have reached. There
is in the movement a challenge to
the qualified but indifferent voter.
He has become the concern of the
country's strongest patriotic amo-
elation.

The Legion has entered an inter-
esting field. This unknown vote
holds in its wer the destinies of
the country. i it can be reused to
action. It could at one election over-
come the political loss vote. which is
herded to the polls to vote as or-
dered. and bring about a radical re-
form in every community where the
government has fallen into the hands
of corrupt men and women.

lf the Legion posts set the sample
and exert the great influence which
they wield in many communities. the
veterans may advance the welfare
of the country fully as much as they
did eight years ago on the battle-
fields of Europe. They deserve and
should have the support of the peo-
ple everywhere.

BE YOURSELF; DON‘T GO ON
LIVING OUT OF CHARACTER

A woman went to a psycho an-
alyst "Just for fun." He told her a
few things about herself that made
her furious. but take it for what it's
worth. it set her to thinking. After
a while she decided to trike his lid-
vice and see if anything happened.
They did—several things. The cana-
ry didn't turn pink. nor did the
number come when she ‘phoned the
first time: no. the miracles were far
greater. One was that she seemed
suddenly to have friends—real
friends. the other was that her
health came back and she had al-
most no headaches. ,

It is not necessary to rush off to
the nearest psycho analyst. good
friends. 1 can save your feelings and
five dollars. or is it ten‘I I shall tell
you one thing the gentleman said to
her. He said: "Good lady. you are
not sincere. You are acting out of
character all your waking hours."
Then be translated his mystic words.
He told her that when she disliked
a person. she put on a smile and
tried to outdo herself in being nice
to them. that at heart she disliked
society. yet because it was smart
to be seen at certain places. she went
to things she abhorred day after
day. week in and out.

"You are a misfit. Madame." said

enemies when we meet the . but
I do advocate trying to like them.
honestly. Then your actions and your
feelings will match. If you cannot
like them. avoid them. If you are in
of. environment or have work you
do not like, change it. if possible. to
things you do like. Do not go on
living out of character."

That is not hard to understand.
Nerves stretching to do things they
hole wears us out. Moreover we are
insincere and people are quick to
detect it. "All the world's a stage.
and men _and women merely play-
(-rs." is too true. Too many people
are acting a part. A maid once said
to me. "I think in German and tall
in English.” A school girl said. "I
use slang but I never think it."
What goes on in our minds has too
often no relation to our acts.

was within 200 yards-of the Dover
shore when the adverse tide swept
him away and he' gave up the at-
tempt. Mrs. Corson faced two miles
of the same kind of swimming—and
went through with .lt.

Here is one sport in which the
male half of the human race might
as well know the worst at once.
They're simply not in it.
