Flanders Poppy
Is Chosen Flower
For Memorial Day

Next Monday will find nearly
every man, woman and child in
Phoenix wearing red poppy, for the
Phoenix Memorial Auxiliary to the
Veterans of Foreign Wars has un-
dertaken the sale of the memorial
flower this year, assisted by the
Woman's Auxiliary of Frank Luke
Post of the American Legion.
The story of how the Flanders
poppy became the inter-allled me-
mortal flower can be briefly ex-
planned After November IL, 1913
it was the sentiment of the people
of the allied nations that some token
should be internationally adopted as
evidence of reverence for the heroic
dead who made peace possible, and
what could be more fitting as an en-
blem than the red poppy that blooms
each year throughout the land where
the allied soldier gave up his life.
The revenue derived from the sale
of the poppies is used as a fund to
relieve distress occasioned by unem-
ployment or sickness among the local

Luncheon Club Is
To Be the Newest
City Organization

A luncheon club at the meetings of
which all matters pertaining to the
welfare and prosperity or the city
and valley may be discussed is to be
formed.
This was decided at a gathering
OF so representative business men on
Wednesday at the Hotel Adams
called to order by John f. Barker,
president of the chamber of COM
merce, and presided over by John d.
Loper, vice president of the chamber.
After many expressions had been
given concerning the desirability of
a luncheon club it was decided that
such a club will be formed and a
committee was named to lay out a
plan for such an organization and to
present it at a meeting TO be held on
Wednesday. May 81. The committee
was composed of Frank O. Smith,
Charles korrick, J. r. Lotus. George
O. Miller and c. +. Willis.
The following suggestions for a
name for the club were submitted !.
City club. Phoenix Luncheon club,
Valley club, Valley Luncheon club.
1t also was suggested that the club
meet weekly.

SCHOOLHOUSE MEMORIAL
PLANNED AT CANTIGNY

Division first went over the top and
began to share in Foch's sturdy re-
sistance which held the Germans
back, then defeated them, and won
the war. 1t will be recalled that
the German general staff had ordered
that the heart be taken out of the
Americans at any cost when they
first showed up as unit along the
fighting front. Therefore, when
orders came for the Americans to
iron out the salient at Cantigny
what might have been skirmish
turned into a terrific struggle dur
ing which the Germans rallied thou
sands of men and threw 10000 shells
into the town. Even after the
Americans took the town they had to
hold it against six counter attacks
by the exasperated Germans.
General Pershing, in his official
report of the engagement at Can
tigny, called it IA brilliant action
and said that lit demonstrated our
fighting qualities under extreme bat
tie conditions. The French. COM
munique gave high praise to Ameri-
can courage. valor and soldierly
qualities. The German war office
merly referred to the Americans as
"the enemy"
The London Times History Of the
War has this to say of the Ameri-
cans at Cantigny:
1.-The 1st Division, fresh from the
Toul training sector, had relieved
the 45th French African Division
from north of Mesnil ST. Georges to
Just north of Cantigny in that Sec
tor, facing Montdidier and south of
Amiens, where the undulating coun-
try broken here and there with
sparse woods afforded the oppor-
tunity for a fierce defense after the
open vastness of the Somme valley.
They had, after the Amiens drive
changing shells across the green,
stood up to daily bombardment of
every kind of cannon. At last the
chance. welcome after much sitting
in trenches. Cantigny, small but
proud on its green eminence, over
looking with a mouth of fire the
whole countryside, was to be taken.
Never did men rise so eagerly out OF
trenches to go forward than those
Americans. Through gas, through
a cloud of machine-gun bullets fol-
lowing close behind their barrage
they steadily ascended the slopes OF
the village and sheltered themselves
in the cemetery when the village was
theirs. Cantlgny was small $50
lated action with little immediate
significance. But the village was
the first ever captured by American
troops in Europe, and the lesson
that the Germans learned was the
first they had received from the
youth of America"
Cantigny sets on a hill near Mont
didier, and is 20 miles southeast of
Aniiens. Even before the Americans
took it the village had been devas-
tated during an heroic French resist

catfbnal campaign, outlining the
plans and purposes OF marketing as
sociations. But when they took the
field, they found a large majority of
the farmers well posted on the sub
ject.
Interest of the farmers as whole
had been aroused in the fine success
encountered by the grain pool of
last year and they had investigated :.
The result was that yesterday, every
man visited by the flying squad
rons' who had given the matter con-
sideration signed without hesitancy.
Many Sign Up
"This should not be mistaken to
mean that every man interviewed
signed up in one or more of the
associations" Captain r. w. Lati-
mer. campaign director announced
prisingly large percentage of sigma
lures secured; far more than we had
anticipated.
s'The campaign was launched
simultaneously in the 1S farm bu-
reau districts of the valley. Seventy
five men and one woman are at work
in the field. exclusive OF the district
managers and workers at the central
campaign headquarters" he added.
ssThis campaign is going to be one
OF the biggest victories ever scored
by the farmers of this valley. There
is no such thing as we think we can
do this thing It's going over and
going over big.
preliminary reports are very en-
| couraging and indicate the impera-
tive desire of Maricopa county far
mers to institute orderly marketing.
he concluded.
Reports in detail from all of the
| Is districts will be made to campaign
headquarters beginning at noon to-
| day. according to announcement
made by Captain Latimer last night
| These reports viii show the number
of signers in each of the four or
| ganizations in each district as well as
the grand totals for the county. II
| Is planned to give these reports the
widest possible publicity.
Start Early Today
The second day of the drive will
get under way at Z o'clock this morn
| ing. Work for the day has been
/ systematically outlined and there
will be far less confusion than on the
first day of the drive. it is believed
| In some of the districts, opening OF
| the campaign was delayed for two
work was completed. With these
matters all disposed OF. the ranch to
ranch drive will progress with
greater speed, it is thought. and
workers will be able to cover much
more territory than on the first day
To facilitate the work OF the sign
up teams, all ranchers are urged to
read the copy OF the dairy contract
as printed in full page advertise
meTt appearing in The Republican
| Wednesday morning. The dairy
contract is similar TO the contracts
being used in the hay, grain and
| cotton associations and has the en-
dorsement of the Maricopa County
| Farm Bureau. the Arizona Industrial
Congress and many other civic or
| ganizations.
BY reading this contract, farmers
! can acquaint themselves. with the
form of the agreement which they
| will be asked to sign, thus saving the
| field workers the time necessary fol-
such explanations.
Campaign directors also pointed

VETERAN WANTS NO
MORE TREATMENT BY
SP INAL PUNCT URE

If Charles L. Dial of 125 Monroe
street, a veteran of the World war,
has to take the spinal puncture treat
ment again in order to retain the
$S.25 per month compensation now
allowed him. or to get additional
compensation for which he has made
application, he wants to know it.
He has written to the manager of
the Veterans bureau for District No.
II at San Francisco about it.
He had one dose of it While in sery-
ice in the Philippines a couple of
years ago. 1t was administered for
nervousness, and it nearly killed him.
His condition, he now says, is worse
than before, and he attributes tnat
to the treatment. Mr. Dial was in
the quartermaster's department dur
ing the war, stationed in the South,
and at the close of the war he re-
enlisted for service in the islands.
In his letter to the Veterans bu-
reau, he writes:

ture treatment. Why do / have to

puncture treatment that put me in

WASHINGTON, D. CA modern
prototype of Americas little red
schoolhouse" will crown the hill at
Cantigny. France. where American
soldiers first entered the western
front as a fighting unit.
The National Geographic Society
will erect at the tiny village of Can
tigny a schoolhouse as a memorial to
the American soldiers who fought
there and as a further emblem of
Americas historic friendship for
France.
In announcing the action of the
society's board of trustees Gilbert
Grosvenor, president of the National
Geographic Society, stated that the
selection Of the town was determined
upon recommendation. of General
Pershing.
During the war members of the
National Geographic Society con-
tributed $4,000 to be expended for
the establishment and equipment of
wards at American Military hospital
No. I. at Neuilly. France. When
the armistice was signed only $4,000
of the fund had been expended. A
committee of the society considered
carefully the most fitting and useful
expenditure of the remaining $4,000
of this fund and. after consultation
with General Pershing, it was de-
termined that the spot where Europe
first saw the valor of Americas
youth would be an appropriate site
for the building of Americas charac-
teristic institution of peace.
At Cantigny the First American

campaigning indicated an "over the
top ending for each of the four
commodity organizations. Response
of the farmers so far surpassed eX-
pectations of the executive commit
tee, directing the work. that conf
dence was expressed that the drive
could be brought to a close Satur-
day night.
1t was as il the farmers were anx-
iously awaiting the arrival OF the
sign up teams" to affix their sigma
lures to the association contracts
In some few instances. the individual
was not acquainted with the farm
bureau plans but for the greater part
he had studied the prospectus and
was ready to sign when the commit
tee called upon him.
Much Enthusiasm
More than that. there was an en-
thusiasm among the farmers that be-
speaks tremendous success in the
operation of the marketing organiZa-
tions. The hay. grain, dairy and cot
ton grower was behind the move
whole -heartedly: could hardly wait
for the association to begin its oper-
ations. 1t seemed that he had seen
the error Of his ways and realized
that if he is to become a successful
agriculturalist, he must Cooperate
with his brother producer in the Or
Derby and efficient marketing of his
products.
1t had been feared that sign up
teams would be obliged to spend a
large portion of their time in an edu-

To Investigate
Cause of Water
Rights Dispute

II. E. Turner, irrigation engineer
for the state water department, left
Yesterday for Nogales, where he will
make an investigation to determine
what effect "a inch pipe laid in the
bed of the Santa Cruz river 20 miles
north of Nogales has upon the sur
face flow of the river. The report will
be used by w. S. Norviel, state wa
ter commissioner, acting as referee,
in the final settlement of a suit
brought in Santa Cruz county supe-
rior court by Thomas d. Casanega
and others against Teofilio Otero for
an injunction to restrain Otero from
maintaining the pipe line.
Several years ago water rights to
the river were granted to both Ca
sanega and Otero and their ranches
which lie on opposite sides Of the
river, are supplied with water from
bitches which run from the same head
gate in the river. Several months ago
Otero lad a pipe line in the bed OF
the river approximately so feet east
of the channel where the surface wa
ter flows in normal times. The line
is 1900 feet long. "a inches in diam
eter and the bottom lies about four
feet below the bed of the river. The
line empties into his ditch.
Following the installation of the
line, Casanega and several others
whose ranches lie on the west side
of the river brought suit for an in
junction tc restrain Otero from main
tanning the pipe line on the ground
that it took too much of the surface
water from the river. The matter was
referred to Mr.. Norviel as referee for
settlement
Mr.. Turner was sent down to make
an investigation to determine If the
pipe line effected the surface flow
Of the river. When his report is sub
mitted a hearing of the matter viii
be had by Mr.. Norviel and his find
ings submitted TO the Santa Cruz SUI
perior court for a court ruling in the
matter.
