ORANGE, Jan. 26.—There was a joint installation meeting of the American Legion and Ladies Auxiliary at the Armory Thursday night at 8:00 o'clock, with an attendance of over one hundred. The Legion officers were Claude Potter, Commander; Fred Wallace, vice-president; Mr. Fixon, adjutant; Romaine Canfield, Chaplain, and Tom Kelley, Sergeant at Arms. The Auxiliary was represented by Mrs. Chapline, the outgoing president, who had served for the past two years. She was presented with a large basket of flowers by Mrs. Upham, who assured Mrs. Chapline that the Auxiliary appreciated her earnest and untiring efforts in their behalf and begged of her to accept this little reminder as a token of their appreciation. Mrs. Chapline responded by saying that while there was an abundance of work, it had been a real pleasure to her to fill the position that she had held for the past two years. Mrs. George Bier was the newly elected president, Mrs. Carl Pister, first vice-president; Mrs. Charles Rozelle, second vice-president; Mrs. Vernon Shipe, secretary; Mrs. Charles Wallace, treasurer; Mrs. Vernon Rozelle, sergeant at arms; Mrs. Chas. Peterkin, chaplain; Mrs. George Lee, historian. Mr. E. E. Barr gave several local selections: A quartette of Legion boys, Mr. A. Nordine, Mr. Fixon, Mr. Batterman and Elmer Ensign also sang several selections. Eight Legion members were requested to give impromptu selections, with a penalty of a heavy fine for failure to do so. The penalty of a fine induced them to comply, but as they could not all agree on any certain selection, each member was permitted to render his own favorite selection at the same time, which caused a great deal of amusement. The same request was also made of members of the Auxiliary. Mrs. Vernon Rozell impersonated Schumann-Heinke by singing Marcheta. Following the program refreshments were served. The refreshments were followed by a social hour. Commander Potter gave a talk highly commending the Auxiliary for their earnest work and co-operation, praising them for their promptness at all times to respond to the calls for aid for disabled veterans. BANK RECEIVER ASKED. DES MOINES, Jan. 26.—Application for the appointment of a receiver for the Citizens Savings bank of Quimby, closed several months ago, following the discovery of a large shortage made by state examiners, has been made by Robert L.
