Post No. 4600 and Auxiliary. The American Legion Auxiliary reports that wearing a Poppy on Poppy Day will honor more than half-million Americans who died and the nearly one- million wounded during both World Wars, the Korean War and the Vietnam conflict. Most of the funds derived from the sale of the Poppies remain in the community in which they are obtained and the funds are used for Child Welfare and Rehabilitation of Veterans and-or members of their families. The Memorial Poppy is made by the hospitalized Veterans in Illinois and the materials are supplied free of charge to the Veterans in various Veterans Administration hospitals and others. In addition to the therapeutic value of such a project, they are able to receive monetary benefits also. Manufacturing Poppies aids the Veterans both financially and psychologically. They are Daid for the work they do, and the job itself is a relief from the long hours spent in a hospital bed. For many it is the only opportunity to earn money during the year. The little red Poppy as a Memorial flower of American War dead is a tradition which began in the years following the First World War. Veterans returning to their homes in this country remembered the wild Poppies which lined the devasted battlefields of France and Flanders. The soldiers of. all nations came to look upon this flower as a living symbol of their dead comrades' sacrifice. * • • • It's surprising how few breaks really deserving people get.
