He says- -Under the old arrangement the express company acted as an inter mediary or “middle man’ between the railroads who transported the ship ments -tnd the publir who paid for the service. Under the new arrange ment the public will deal directly with the railroads." Mr. Clift pays tribute U. the efficiency of the American Railway Kxpre s Company is follows: “During its lone period of opera tion the American Railway Express Company cvirned an international r«-putati«*n for efficiency and reliabil ity in the performance of a varied service to tiie shipping and traveling public. That high standard of ner vier will l>c maintained, and if possi ble improved, by the new organiza tion.

Government com pensations afford them a meager ( living. j Th.- community life took on a new note recently with the irjranization of a post of The A met .can Legion. The names of sixteen veterans ap- pear on the charter granted by the state department of the post, and all but four are rated -as perman ently disabled veterans. The organi zation of the Legion post was made per»*ble through the construction of a community hall. The veterans have bad no opportunity to hold any general gatherings save those with the sky as a roof. None of the shacks or houses were large enough to accommodate more than a half dozer. nt a time. The legion post and the community hall is expected to do much to aid in the social wel fare of the settlement. An effort will be made by the I<egioii to improve the water situa tion. Some of the settlers arc forc ed to travel many miles to obtain water for drinking and for home use. In one section there is only one well and more than twenty families obtain water from it. The Legion will not make an effort to provide irrigation water to any great extent as it is believed the cost would ho prohibi tive. The settlers for the most will not be permanent residents. Most of them have constructed small shacks and real development of the proper ties is regarded as practcially out of the question. “If we can d> somching to provide them with dri» king water and pos sibly enough I) do a little truck gardening, it will help out consider ably,” E. P. McDowell, state adjut ant of the Legion, said in discussing plans to aid the disabled veterans. It was through the efforts of the Kpiscopul mission that the commun ity hall was provided for the settle ment. The mission contributed the money for the purchase of the lum ber with the understanding that the men would do the building and the mission would be given use of the hall for conducting Sunday services and other meetings. The offer was quickly (accented. Now that that the Legion post has been established and has a permanent meeting place, the women are planning to organize u unit of the Auxiliary.

It was a family medi cine with us. “After I was grown and went out on the farm, working hard, I would get a dull, tired feeling and a bad taste in my mouth. I would know then, that J was bilious. I would take a few doses of Black-Draught, and soon feel good as new. “In later years, I have taken Black-Draught and it has helped me for constipation and biliousness, and I am still of the same belief, os when a child, that Black-Draught can’t be beaten.” Thousands of men and women find Black-Draught of great help in relieving the common ailments, duo to constipation, biliousness and in digestion.
