I men of o anil and vicinity, a measure of relief that might otberwise fail on the respective municipalities. I This assistance is being giveil, in the form of provisions, fuel, rent, clotîhing, meals, accommodationi for transients, etc., but only after careful investiga- tion. There are no administration ex- penses to this fund, as ail investigation and Othier services are rendered gratuî- tousIy. In consequence, apart from the cost of the poppies, and a smnall matter of postage, the bulk of the fund is avail- able for relief. And even iii tic pur- chase of the POPPies tl'emselves, there is a further relief, as these poppies are product of crippled veterans in te Vetcraft Slîops, a numnber of meni he- ing s0 employed througlîout the year as the result of your generosity. Your Legion is indeed grateftil for your splendid and timely assistance. FREDERICK H. NfOOIY, Chai rna n I YOU AND I1 The world lias not gone to the dogs.
