Charles G. Blakeslee, pasU commander of Binghamton Poat, 80, and past commander of the New York Department of the Le gion, says: "I believe It to be a proper sup plement to that spirit of self-sacrifice and service, which was characteristic of our ex-service men during the stirring days of the Great War. that our efforts should continue to be directed toward the welfare of those of our number who suffered more by reason of their war service. To those disabled men we owe a duty. No better avenue for the expression of our feeling for these men can be given than by the diversion of the whole or a portion; of the bonus which has been awarded the ex-service men of this state, to the immediate needs of those of our "buddies' who are at present receiving treatment and care at the Veterans' Mountain Camp.

"The Mountain Camp has been maintained by public subscription and funds must necessarily be forthcoming from time to time for Its support. By the contribution of even a small part of the state allotment, the most worthy purpose for which this camp wtis created may oe coniinuen ana carried forward. "The spirit that carried us through the war period should be perpetu- aiea ana lor mat reason I also feel that we owe a duty as well toward our local organizations of the Legion wnicn are preserving the spirit, of Americanism today. These Institutions should also receive tho same aid of ex-service men wherever pos siwe. uy contributing to the main tenance of the local organizations, the ex-service man Is not only strengthening his own position but in addition, providing the very means by which these various organlza tions may continue to exist.

"I sincerely trust that those of the ex-servlre men of this state who are In a position so to do will contribute to boUl of these worthy causes out of their state bonus." CO.NTAGICHS IlISKASKH.
