THE AMERICAN LEGION AND AUXILIARY.

THE DODGE COUNTY POST of the American Legion was organized in 1929 with about
thirty members. The membership has grown steadily since, and how numbers about a
hundred. A. E. Rozar was elected the Post Commander and P. M. Burch, Adjutant.
At the next election P. M. Burch was elected Commander. A. E. Rozar was again
elected Commander, but resigned, and his brother, W. C. Rozar, was elected to
fill out his unexpired term. The newly elected officers are: J. G. Williamson,
Commander, and D. F. Thomas, Adjutant.

  The Legion has accomplished many things worthwhile since its organization.
Disabled veterans have been given aid in preparation of their claims, and in
getting them placed in Government hospitals. The Legion sponsored the
distribution of 5,040 sacks of flour given by the American Red Cross for the
relief of the poor in Dodge County this summer.

  They have plans under way to erect a log cabin club house in the near future.
An Auxiliary was organized about a year ago, with a good membership. Mrs.
LeSesns Bush was elected as the leader of this organization.
