American Legion Auxiliary News UNIT NO. 491 by Pearl Cooper Sing their praises - Show you care - Wear a poppy everywhere! This slogan has been adopted by the American Legion and its auxiliary in the state of Illinois to signify this year's program of aid to the veteran and his family with proceeds from the distribution of the American Legion Poppy. These small red flowers came into being following the conclusion of World War I and each year begin to make their appearance in the days and weeks near Memorial Day. Made by hospitalized veterans in Illinois,'proceeds from this distribution remain in the community and are used for service programs of Child Welfare, Rehabilitation and service to the veteran and his family, states Mrs. James (Eileen) White, Poppy chairman of McHenry Unit 491. In making these small red flowers, each veteran is paid a sum for each which helps to supplement his own, Tips For The Homemaker When storing your winter woolens, don't just hang them away in an unused closet, or in your attic or basement. Take a few precautions to protect clothes from damage by moths and carpet beetles. Katharine Neumann, McHenry county Extension adviser, suggests that you dry- clean or wash woolens before putting them away. Then use plastic bags or other insect- tight containers for storage. Another method--especially good for furs and nonwashable woolens--is to thoroughly brush and air the garments in strong sunlight for a full day. Pay particular attention to pocket interiors, cuffs and folds when brushing. If you plan to use a storage area that is not insect-proof, use a fumigant or residual spray treatment. If you have a relatively tight storage area, a fumigant, such as moth crystals, flakes or balls, will be effective. Use one pound of crystals, flakes or balls for every 100 cubic feet of space. Keep a supply of fumigant on hand at all times. 'The fumigant materials prevent damage from moths, but- they're only partially ef­ fective against damage from carpet beetle larvae. The fumigant treatment doesn't destroy carpet beetle larvae but merely repells them. For the residual spray treatment, use a contact in­ secticide, such as 0.5 diazinon. Vacuum the storage area thoroughly and spray the entire inside surface. This treatment will .prevent clothes moth damage, but it won't give complete protection against carpet beetles.

When you hear the question, "Won't you wear a Poppy?" on your street, wear it proudly, as those tiny red petals signify your respect for those who have given their lives that we may still enjoy the freedoms we do. As the years pass, we sometimes forget what we owe these men and the members of their families and any assistance from non-members or non-member groups will be welcome by the American Legion and American Legion auxiliary on Poppy Day, which will be held this year Saturday, May 22, 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. This year, as in the past, the V.F.W. and its auxiliary will work together with the Legion and auxiliary. Please contact Mrs. White at 338-4573, Poppy chairman of McHenry unit 491, for further information or to offer your assistance. iDomgliifl (F®ir IFoodl For grilled cheese puff sand­ wiches, combine 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese (4 ounces), 2 tablespoons minced celery, 2 tablespoons well-drained pickle relish, 3 tablespoons mayonnaise, and dash of onion salt.
