duiOus e4-SerFlCe men ana their raml-
lies occasioned by sickness or unem-
ployment.
Many of the poppy makers, dis
abled through the ravages OF the
worlds greatest conflict, are men un-
able to be rehabilitated by the veter-
ans Bureau because their disability
was not contemplated by the War
Risk and Vocational Training laws
when passed and are designated by
the Government as "non-feasible." To
these men in particular the poppy
making not only offers a means Of
livelihood which the majority of them,
because of their crippled condition,
would be helpless to earn In their
former occupations, but in addition
helps to renew their self-confidence
and to rebuild their morale.
The majority of peoples for the ma
tional sale are being made in Boston,
Mass, where in a specially equipped
V. F.. w. Poppy Factory and in U. S.
Veterans Hospital No. A force of
veterans are actively adding hun
dreds of peoples daily to the $780,
900 quota they have set for them
selves. In a number OF states, how
ever, the blossoms for the local sale
are being made within the state by
the states own war veteran sons.
The Buddy Poppy label which is on
every flower has been formally regis
tered by the Veterans of Foreign
Wars with the U. S. Patent Office to
prevent any Infringement upon it and
to guarantee to the public the actual
manufacture Of the peoples by dis
abled and needy ex-service men.
Buddy Poppy" is the name the men
themselves selected for the flower.
Professional organizations and rep
resentative trades associations cover
ing practically every branch Of pro-
fessional and Industrial life have sig
nified their cordial endorsement OF
the Buddy Poppy plan by formal reso-
buttons. and prominent individuals
and outstanding women's clubs and
patriotic organizations have also
strongly commended it.
