Poppy Sales Near
In the near future shortly prior
to Memorial Day-Legionaires and
members of the Legion Auxiliary
will appeal to the general public to
purchase poppies in memory of the
dead Of the World War. The funds
which the posts and units pay for
these poppies go to disabled veterans
who make them, and the money col
lected from the public is devoted to
welfare work among disabled veterans
and their families.
Many of the former soldiers who
were wounded in the war are in need,
says Miss Blanche Scallen, secretary
of the Minnesota Legion Auxiliary.
She points out that in many cases
their claims from the government
have not been adjusted satisfactorily
and unless the public, through Legion
and Auxiliary, take care of them, no
one will do so. Any Legionaire or
Auxiliary member will be glad to ex-
plain the use to which the funds are
put. Books are open to the public
and the record Of past years attests
the sincerity of purpose which
prompts this great work.

The will Of the people. 2

THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE,"
John Stuart Mill found, practically
means, the will of the most numer-
Gus or the MOST ACTIVE PART
of the people; the majority, or
those who succeed in making them
selves accepted as the majority;
the people consequently may desire
to Cypress a part Of their number;
and precautions, he thought, are
as much needed against this, as
against any other abuse of power
The people who exercise the.
power, are not always the same
people with those over whom it is
exercised, and the "self govern
ment spoken Of, is not the govern
ment of each by himself but of
each by all the rest.
Like other tyrannies," said Mill,
one of the great English thinkers,
"the tyranny Of the majority was
at first, and is still vulgarly held
in dread, chiefly as acting through
the acts of public authorities. But
rejecting persons perceived that
when society is itself the tyrant-
society collectively, over the separ-
ate individuals who compose tits
means Of tyrannizing are not re-
stricted to the acts which it may
do by the hands of political func-
tionaries.
Society can and does execute
it's own mandates; and if it issues
wrong mandates instead of right,
or any mandates at all il things
with which it ought not to NEEDLE,
it practices social tyranny more
formidable than many kinds of
political oppression, since, though
not usually upheld by such extreme
penalties, it leaves fewer means of
escape, penetrating much more
deeply into the details of life, and
enslaving the soul itself.
+
Protection, therefore, against
the tyranny of the magistrate is
not enough; there needs protection
also against the tyranny of pre-
yailing opinion and feeling; against
the tendency of society to impose,
by other means than civil penal
ties, its own ideas and practices as
rules of conduct on those who dis
sent from them; TO fetter the de-
velopment, and if possible, pre-
vent the formation, of any indi-
yiduality not in harmony with its
ways, and compel all characters to
fashion themselves upon the model
Of its own.

Mhy the Leaves Chance color.

Despite the commences of autumn
coloring, We do not yet know the full
meaning of autumn oolors Of leaves.
We do not know that late in the sum-
mer the tree is preparing for the leaf
into the stem. 1t also ceases TO make
chlorophyl (the green substance of
the leaf which aids in the making
of the plants food, and this gradu-
ally fades away in the bright light.
BY fading, it exposes to view any
other oolors in the leaf; and all leaves
contain yellow coloring matters called
xanthophyl Whose function is not
know, and it is these which give the
yellow color to autumn leaves.
The red is formed differently: In
bright light and cool temperature a
new substance. called erythrophyl, is
made from sugar and tannin in the
leaf cells, ana that has a red color.
4 brown substance is also sometimes
formed, and besides, the skeleton OF
the leaf itself turns brown as the leaf
dies. 1t is the various combinations
Of these substances that give the many
shades Of autumn eolors. Some stud
ents think these eolors are a useful
protection to the living protoplasm
Qife materially of the leaf after the
green disappears, protecting it against
the fun blaze of the light. which is
injurious; but others think the colors
have no use at all but are simply the
incidental chemical result OF the pro-
eesses in the ripening and dying leaf.
As yet, the weight Of evidence
seems to favor the latter view, but the
matter is still unsettled. Il Is gener-
ally thought that frost has something
to do with it; but it has not, except
to hasten it Anything which affects
the vitality of the leaf tends to has
ten it, for which reason an injured
branch OF a maple win often show
red autumn color even in summer.
The colors are brightest where the
leaves receive the most brilliant sum
