PAGE TEN THE CANADIAN STATESMAN, BOWMANVILLE, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 23rd, 1930 THE SCARLET POPPY AN EMBLEM 0F REMEMBRANCE Poppy Day WiU Be Held in Bowman- ville and District Nov. th. Ever since the inception o! the dis- tribution o! Flanders' Poppy replicas1 as 'Flowers of Remnembrance," three significant results have been achiev-i cd.1 The people o! Canada have beei: given a tangible means off expressir.g their remembrance o! the sacrifice1 o! those who suffered deatli:on dis-5 ability on active service durîng the1 Great War; Disabied veterans unabie to find cmploymnent opportunities eisewhere,t have been given employment in the manufacture o! the t ooppy replicas; Funds have been raised for theu alleviation o! distress and suffering among ex-service men and theirr families.c The 1930 distribution will have an added significance inasmuch as the need for employrnent for handicap- ped vcterans and for relief funds this year is infinitely greater. The poppy replicas are manufact- ured in Vetcraf t and Red Crossý Workshops, under the supervision o! I the Department o! Pensions andi National Health. The Canadian Legion, as the only comprehensive veterans' organization o! Dominion- wide scope, sponsors the distribution. Some eight hundred branches and ladies' auxiliaries, with the valued as- sistance o! such organizations as the Independent Order o! the Daughters o! the Empire, Women's Institutes, Church Organizations. etc.. carry out the actuai distribution.
