ORNAMENTAL FLOWER BOXES
MADE IN MANCHESTER

If some folks saw some really fine
ornamental flower boxes made OF con-
crete and marble in nearby cities.
with fancy price tags on them, the
chances are that large numbers OF
these articles would be purchased by
our people, without regard to price.
The other day the editor of the paper
while out scouting for news, wandered
to the Jewell Cement Block factory
near the new bridge, and there we
found a nice stock of such lawn or
naments. We never realized the kind
of work Mr.. Jewell is turning out
in his plant and we feel quite sure
that there are a lot of other folks
right here at home who don't realize
it. He has quite a number OF fine
flower boxes made up of concrete
and trimmed with granite and fancy
stones. He also makes ornamental
brick for porch posts and trimmings,
These bricks are made up in various
shades of coloring and design. Just
now he is completing a set OF fancy
posts and kettles which will make a
most substantial receptical for plants
Mr.. Jewell has also made up a neat
grave marker, and contemplates doing
more of this kind of work.

POPPY IS LEGION FLOWER
"In Flanders Fields the poppies

grow, s5s az.
Beneath the crosses, row on row."
The Aemrican Legion has adopted
the poppy as the official flower Of
the organization in memory Of the
American soldiers who fell among the
poppies OF France, and not only menl-
Tbers OF the Legion but all others who
wish to join in this custom are urged
to wear poppy on Memorial Day.
Women and children OF France have
made vast quantities OF artificial
peoples which are being sold through
out America and the proceeds of their
sale will be- used In relieving the
distress among French Orphans and
families OF the devastated regions Of
France. The Manchester Post has or
dered a limited number Of these pop
pies to be sold here and members OF
the newly organized Women's Aux
iliary of the Manchester Post will have
them for sale. The banks of Manches-
ter have also offered to sell them for
the ladies and you may get them
there.
The price is only ten cents each
cash which will make it easy for all
to get them and all the proceeds will
be turned over to the American-Franco
Children's League which has charge
Of the children In devastated France.
