TRIBUTE TO HEROES
ADTODAY'SMEN
Memorial Day Wreaths'
Price VIII Aid Red Cross.
REVERENCE IN PRACTICALLY
Flowers Of Patriotism to BE E.
pressed in Donations.

Memorial Day wreaths will be trans
lated this year Into Red Cross con
tributions for our soldiers and our
allies.
Those who. on past Memorial Days,
have unfaillngly laid flower wreaths
on the graves OF their dead will this
year express veneration In as beauti-
tiful but an Infinitely more practical
way.
Chairman Henry B. F. MacfarIand
of the local Red Cross committee made
this announcement today In answer to-
inquiries, dut to the nearness Of Ne
mortal Day, as to whether there was
any objection that "memorial" tokens
be contributed to the Red Cross cause
on or before May 81. Mr.. Mcfarland
said that while he believes contribu-
ting to the Red Cross fund an ideal
way OF expressing memory to the
dead. his committee will not solicit
memorial" contributions.
Many large contributions were re-
ceived today. Mr.. Mcfarland said
/ the dollar Of the man who can give
no more Is just as welcome as the
thousand-dollar check OF the rich
man. much as the thousand-oollar
checks are needed and appreciated.
The FIRST Red Cross silver offering
box opened. that at the Riggs Ma
tlonal Bank. today contained SIG.
These boxes are in many public
places.
