POPPY AS MEMORIAL FLOWER
Tacoma (Wash.l Post Adopts Resoiu-
tion Urging Flanders Fields Bios
som &c Made Official.

A request has been received by
Franklin D'Olier. national commander
of the American Legion. to have the
Shirley poppy adopted as the memo
rial flower OF the Legion. The request
originated with the Edward B. Rhodes
Post No. 2 of Tacoma. Wash, which
has adopted a resolution fayOring the
adoption of the poppy.
The resolution adopted by the Wash
ington post was as follows:
Lest we in the days work. sur
rounded by home and happiness. forget
our comrades who sleep in France,
and here in the arms of the mother
land:
Lest we forget that greater love-
of these American boys who gave
their lives for their fellow men,
Lest we forget that In Flanders
fields the peoples grow. among the
crosses, row on row. and that nature
seems to have raised in these simple
flowers the most eloquent monument
waving scarlet blessing over their
graves:
BE it resolved, That the Edward B.
Rhodes post. American Legion. inaugu-
rate movement to have the Shirley
poppy adopted as the Memorial flower
of the American Legion.
THAT the American Legion take
steps TO assist and urge that every
public park, cemetery, and every pri-
yate garden. in gratitude to the men
who made the supreme sacrifice, do.
during the coming spring and sum
mer. and every spring and summer
thereafter, revere the memory Of our
soldier dead by setting aside a plot for
continued display of waving red pop
pies,
'sThat red poppy be worn by every
member of the American Legion on
Memorial day"

ton will be introduced by the post ST

Legion. which is to be held in Cleye-

Charles F. Coffin, president OF the In
dfanapoIis chamber of commerce, which
contributed to fund to send large
delegation to the Minneapolis convex

There is now an obligation as well
as an opportunity upon the citizens Of
Indianapolis to show that they all ap-
preciate the significance Of the fact
that the headquarters Of the great or
ganization are to be permanently To-
Gated In Indianapolis. II is not enough
simply TO have obtained them. think
you win agree with me that the least
the city of Indianapolis can do is to
supply the Legion ample grounds free
of charge upon which they will erect
one of the handsonest buildings that
Indianapolis has ever had.
Bringing the headquarters Of this
organization to Indianapolis is not like
bringing a factory or industrial plant
to the city. With this organization
comes a power from which will go In

state for contributions to what will
probably be a 100000 or $4,000. coo

south and the city library on the north.

Health Notes

He who would sleep at night must
regulate his day, by not undertaking
more than he can accomplish without
undue stress, and, second. by carrying
through what he does undertake with
out undue solicitude, anxious doubts,
and morbid fears.
The maturity of the soul Is worth
more than the first brilliance OF its
faculties, or the plenitude Of its
strength, and the eternal in us can but
profit from all the ravages made by
time.
The most serious violation of hy-
giene in clothing is wearing garments
that restrict respiration. Adjust cloth
ing to natures requirements, and cul-
tivate perfect pores and respiration.
In all likelihood the man who tolls
and moils at business, without rest,
relaxation and enjoyment, through the
best years of life, with the hope of
retiring at last and making the eve.
ming Of life all holiday, all play, will
,aever retire. except into an untImely
grave.
