Pldns for Poppy DaY
Nedring Completion

Preparations for the observ-
ance of Poppy Day, Saturday,
May %, are being completed
by the Hardin Unit of the Ann
erican Legion Auxiliary, Mrs.
Earl Cammock, Unit President
announced today.
Arrangements are being di-
rected by Mrs. Frank Morrison,
chairman of the Poppy commit
tee, assisted by a large corps of
workers from the Unit.
The Poppy serves a dual pur-
pose, for in wearing it, the
World War dead are honored
and the wars living victims are
aided.
The peoples are paper replicas
of the wild peoples which
doomed along the battle front,
and which inspired the poem.
In Flanders Fields" 1t is said
that after the war, where the
fighting had been the fiercest
and thousands died, where there
was complete devastation, there
the peoples doomed in greatest
profusiOn. It is because of this
that the peoples seem signifi-
cant of the sacrificial blood of
those who fell in France. 1t is
for this reason that the poppy
became the memorial flower of
the American Legion and the
American Legion Auxiliary.
Each flower that will be sold
on Poppy Day has been fash
toned by some disabled veteran.
The poppy work is the only
form of employment that is
open to them. Only the men
receiving little or no compen-
sation are given the work, with
preference going to those with
families to support.
For making the peoples anG
attaching the official American
Legion and Auxiliary label. the
veterans are paid two cents for
each flower. The Auxiliary sup
plies the materials and advan :
ces the money to pay the men
as the peoples are produced.
Every dime contributed by
the public for their peoples
goes for child welfare and for
rehabilitation work among dis
abled veterans and their famil-
les.
