FOR DISABLED SOLDIERS

Poppy WHI Carry to Everyone Its
Message.
The war is over for most of us, but
is it over for everyone? Hovy about
■ the men in the hospitals? Many of
| 'thedS haye been there ever since the
%ar, and many of them will never
leave the hospitals. The government
Is doing a great deal for these men—
| good hospitals are provided and ex
cellent care given them, but the moral
pat on the back the government is not
, able to give must come from the out
. side. The American Legion aild Aux
r.liary, through their service program,
provide the sunshine of thoughtful
ness for the service men and women
in hospitals.
, Birthdays are not forgotten, Christ
mas is a big day in the hospitals,
Easter and Mothers’ Day carry with
. them greetings from those who are re
, membering.
The service program is carrie<j into
the homes to the mothers who are try
ing to keep the home together while
the father ,is in the hospital—to the
discouraged service man who is just
out of the hospital arid trying to make
a new start in life.
At Otter Lake, Mich., is a house
built by dimes, built and maintained
by the American Legion Auxiliary,
where children whose fathers fell or
are now in hospitals are gathered to
gether with all the backgrounds of a
real home. If possible the mothers
and children are kept together, if not
the children are kept until desirable
homes are found for them.
The poppy sale with its double mis
sion—to remind the public that the
war is not yet over for many, and to
raise funds for local relief work for
the service men and women and their
families and for hospital work, will
be' tomorrow. All over the land the
little red poppy will carry to every
one its message:
“Buy me. 1 stand for service. X
enabled one cent to be earned by a
disheartened service man in the hos
pital who needed it, and all you pay
for me goes for service for those for
whom the war is not yet over. Buy
me. i. .
“Wear me. I represent-the sacri
ficial blood of the men who fell on
Flanders fields. I am a memorial to
all who died in service. In reverence
and understanding, wear me!"

in Yucatan.
t Mexico City, May 28.—Another
t °f Mexico’s lost cities of antiquity, a
f deserted waste of uge stone nuildfags
e built by the ancestors of present day
r Indians who have forgotten the
j civilization of their fathers, ha* been
discovered by a Mexican Govern
ment expedition.
, The find, reported to rival, the
. splendor of Chichen Itza, the Mayan
city being unearthed in Yucatan by
the Carnegie Institution, is described
in messages from . Arriaga, a. email
> village in the Statae of Chiapas. The
ruins themselves are near Tonala, in
1 the same State.
_ They cover an area of more than
sixty acres and are well preserved.
. The original inhabitants are believed
> to have been the ancestors of the
- present day Zapotco Indians, etill
living in that section of Mexico. So
> far as is known here, the city i* not
- recorded in any museum records.
■ Members of the expedition report
! finding building and monuments of
t great beauty, adorned with rare- and
> unknown figures, and many hand
somely carved rrtonoliths.
’ The larger buildings and temple
I surround groups of esplandes or plat
, forms, each of great width. All are
’ built of gigantic blocks of solid
- granite, quadrangular in shape.
i In the centre of the esplanades,
i the explorers found a number of ex
- quisitely carved monumeuts and
, altars, not unlike those in other
ruined cities of southern Mexico and
Guatemala. Many of the monuments
’ are covered with hieroglyphics of
unknown meaning. Several sections i
of these are being shipped to mexfco 1
, City for detailed study at the Na- .

GOV. McLEAN AT LILLINGTON
Altogether Fitting That Memorials
Murid Be Erected to Our Illustri
ous Dead.
Lillington, N. C., May 28.—“1t is
altogether fitting that monuments be
raised and histories recited commemo
rating the illustrious dead of a com
monwealth who body and sould haver
passed into the trtdition of our na- i
tion.” 'i-. , |
Such was the declaration of Gov
ernor A. W. McLean at the exercises
at the unveiling of the marker to the
memory of Colonel Alexander Mc-
Allistef, Revolutionary patriot near ’
Old Bluff Presbyterian Chprgh 'in
Harneft courity, ne»fr here’, today. *
“Freedom of self-government,” con
tinued the governor, “iR ever an act
of character; it comes from the char
acter of those who placed their lives
under the grim chances of war and
suffering to establish it. It survives
by the character of those whto main
tain it in entirety and truth, Us the
expression ,of the wills of free men.
Without a posterity equally as re
sourceful and determined, a great an
cestry has collapsed already.”
The governor paid tribute to Col.
McAllister as ‘ii conspicuous example
of llrat fine type of Revolutionary pa
triot who feared neither king nor
governors.”
The speaker traced the settlement
of the Scotch settlers in America, and
told of how the settlers from Scot-'
land canw* to North Parol inn
mmi cany to Aorta Carolina,
