PPY MEMORIAL
TO SOLDIERS WHO
DIED IN BATTLE
Paper Replicas of Flanders
Flower to Be Sold Here
May 25
Saturday of next week is Poppy Day
and at that time the citizens of this
community are asked to wear a Poppy in observance of this day in honor
of those who gave their lives on the
fields of battle during the World War
of 1917-1918.
The Wild poppy of France and
Flanders survived death and destruction on the battle front; it grew and
bloomed • around the trenches and
shell holes; it sprang up on the fresh
graves of the battle dead.
The American Legion adopted the
poppy as its memorial flower at the
1920 National American Legion Convention at Cleveland and the following year the National American Legion Auxiliary Convention at Kansas
City made it the memorial flower of
the Auxiliary.
The poppies distributed by the
American Legion and Auxiliary are
made of red crepe paper; all are hand
made and all are made by disabled
American World War Veterans who
are patients- in the Veteran's hospitals.
The crepe paper poppy was selected
as the official poppy of the American
Legion and Auxiliary because it provided the maximum of work for the
disabled men with the minimum expenditure for materials. The fabric
poppy was considered, but not selected, because making this flower would
not provide sufficient employment for
the disabled veterans.
Poppy-snaking means much to the
disabled veterans. It provides an interesting occupation to fill the long
hours of illness and convalescence. It
has high value as occupational therapy, helping the men speed their recovery. It gives them the encouraging
experience of again earning money.
The work of making these poppies
begins early in the winter in most of
the hospitals, under direction of the
Department organization of the American Legion Auxiliary and with the
.cooperation of the hospital aythoi-sty.
Materials ,are supplied by the Auxiliary and the men are paid regularly
from the Auxiliary funds.
On Saturday of next week workers
from the local American Legion Auxiliary Unit will be active all day long
and it is expected that the citizens
of this community will contribute as
generously to this fine project as they
have in past years. »
