Bartlett American Legion Post
Organized In March 1920
From The Bartlett Tribune
and News Jan. 10 1019:
"Louis B. Wells Makes
Supreme Sacrifice."
On last Friday January 4
Mr. and Mrs. J. J. Wells of
this city received a message
from the War Department
stating that their son Cor-
poral Louis B. Wells 360th
Infantry died December 22
of pneumonia. 'b" as he was
familiaryly called was 27
years and 4 months of age. In
September 1917 he answered
the call of his country and
was sent to Camp Travis
where he was assigned to the
3G0th Infantry which was
sent to France early in 1918.
By his cheerfulness and
qualities he soon became
well liked by his comrades
and by his careful attention)
to minor'details his com-
manding officer soon real-
ized his worth and honored
him with a promotion. He
possessed all the traits that
go to make a good soldier he
was brave and stout at heart
and always had an eye on the
enemy when his commander
said "over the top and God be
with you."
The announcement of his
death was a severe shock to
his family and many friends
He was universally admired
and loved by all who knew
him He was known to be a
good boy and worthy of high
esteem and confidence. In his
home he was all that a dutiful
son should be; he was de-
voted to his parents and
honored them. To his heart-
broken mother he was al-
ways attentive and made her
burdens of life lighter. His
life was such that his place in
the family circle can never
be filled.
He grew up in the Sunday
School and while still a mere
child he united with the
Methodist Church. He was
represented by a blue star on
the service flag that now
hangs in the church but that
3 tar has been changed to gold
by the members who loved
him as one well worthy a
place among them Like
many young people "B" had
become a little indifferent
about his attendance at
Sunday School and church
before joining the Army and
in some of his letters to his
home folks confessed his
delinquency in this regard
but said the stern exper-
iences on the battle front had
given him a new vision of
Christianity and the meaning
of a religious life and that on
his return home he would
prove himself a better Christ-
ian than he had ever been
before. These statements are
a great comfort now to his

parents and friends who fell
confident that he has con-
quered the last enemy and
entered upon his Life Eter-
nal. It is doubly shocking to
know that after having gone
through all the horrowing
experiences and dangers of
the shell fire and clashing of
bayonets and with the heart
of a victor beating in his
bosom he could not return to
his native land and loved'
ones to tell the story; but in
the Providence of Him who
docth all things well it did
not seem best. The loving
memory of his manly face
and spirit and the true love
he bore in his heart for his
parents his home and his
friends will ever abide."
The Louis B. Wells Post
American Legion No. 183
was organized in March 1D20
with 21 charter members.
Officers elected were: Bar-
ton Wells Commander Dr.
R. S. Sutton Vice Com-
mander Frank Wright Ad-
jutant Alfred Wacker His-
torian Rev. J. A. Siceloff

ganization became known as
the Louis B. Wells Post in
honor of one of the most
esteemed boys who died in
Germany.
During the first year of the
organization many of the
charter members moved a-
way and post activities were
suspended until the following
year. In 1921 a new organi-
zation was perfected at a
meeting called by Dr. R. S.
Sutton in his office. Dr.
Sutton was elected Com-
mander. World War 1 veterans who
lost lives included: Corp.

"Defensively we have a
lot better technique we play
more as a team" Aldrich
commented.
"The mental aspect our
overall knowledge of the
game has also Improved"
he added.
Aldrich expressed some
concern about injuries since
QB Greg Turner FB Darritt
Crathors E Doug Binder
and T Sam Pierce all
injuries in last week's TSD
game.
None of the injuries appear
to be serious but Aldrich
docs list Crathcrs as a
starter on offense though
sponsors for each book they
can read within a four week
reading period. Achieve-
ment prizes will be awarded
at the conclusion of the
program.
Multiple Sclerosis is the
major crippler of young

he could see action on de-
fense. Bartlett fans are hoping
for a repeat of the first half
action of that earlier game
with Rogers.
The Bulldogs battled Ro-
gers to a 7-7 halftimc score
getting inside the 30 n couple
of times without being able to
cash In.
But the second half turned
sour as Rogers took advan-
tage of a fumble and a
blocked punt to grab the
momentum and walk away
with the game 34-7.
Perhaps memory of the
humiliating second half will
provide the Bulldogs with the
needed incentive to give the
Eagles a strong challenge
