Legion Auxiliary Records Varied Post Reorganization Activities
Since its October reorganization under new officers the Dorsey Liberty Auxiliary of the American Legion has grown to over 100 members. The group held a November program with readings and a talk on local civil works, donated clothing and food to families at Christmas, and funded school clothing for a child. They sent $25 to Topeka for Christmas boxes for ex service members in hospitals and $5 to the Red Cross. They sell hospital-made articles to raise proceeds for the boys, totaling $8 this year. They sent eleven bed jackets and twelve sewing kits to the state welfare chair in Wichita. They began a policy of giving $1 to each child born to an ex-service family to start a thrift account, totaling $3 to date. A January covered dish supper drew about 100 Post and Auxiliary members and the Junior club. A committee’s efforts raised $28,000 for the city welfare fund.

Children start at 15 o'clock after nurse checks, with indoor and outdoor play, when meals and desserts follow supervised dining.
