DR. RANKIN
3PEAKS TO KIWANIS
A MObt Exhaustive Address On the
Duke Endowment and Hospitals
Dr. W. S. Rankin made one ot the
finest talks that it has been the
pleasure of the members of the Eouls
burg Klwanls Club to hear on last
Friday night when he spc*ke in the
Interest of hospitals. Dr. Rankin
said experience had proven that from
twenty to thirty people per thousand
population are confined to their beds
on ? account of Illness, one-third of
whom can pay their expenses and
iwo.tuirds cannot. The proper size
hospital for a community like this
would require five beds for each
thousand population. The cost of con
1 structlon would average about $2,500
per bed and the cost of maintenance
about $3.00 per bed per year with a
population of thirty thousand he esti
' mated that a twenty-five to thirty bed
hospital would be sufficiently large
for Franklin cpunty. He stated that
the Duke endowment could give the
county three services. First could give
$1 per bed per day for charity beds,
with a contribution from an undeter
mined and unstable surplus for con.
structlon. Second furnish communities
essential information for running hos
pitals. Third under a service that
; interests individuals in character
building. It is through sickness, suf.
ferlng and distress that sympathy
and love is brought about and through
love that service is rendered. Sick
ncss has to develop to exact charact
'er.
! Dr. Rankin's address was greatly
appreciated as was expressed by Drs.
R. F. Yarborough, R. B. Henderson,
| J. E. Malone and H. G. Perry, all of
I whom were enthusiastic in their ex
pressions of the need of a hospital in
Franklin county.
I Dr. Rankin was ably introduced by
1 Dr. S. P. Burt acting as the chairman
for the evening.
The evening was given over to the
| presentation of the hospital problem
and adjournment'was taken upon the
completion of the business.

OTHER FACTS ABOUT POPPIES
Poppy making and poppy selling
make up an endless chain o( help (or
the disabled men In hospitals. The
protlts from Auxiliary poppy sales fi
nance new purchases (or the men who
make the poppies at their bedside.
Unfortunately not all of the popples
sold in the United States are made
by disabled veterans. Orton W. Wood,
writing in the American Legion Week
ly says, "Last year over 03,000,000
popples were made by disabled veter
ans for the Auxiliary's National Poppy
I Committee. But oyer 3,000,000 pop
ples were made in factories?"com
mercial popples"?they call thorn in
contrast with the popples the veter
ins make. Mrs. Adelln Wright Mc
Cauley, chairman of the Auxiliary's
National Poppy Committee says, "We
bare to sell the reteran poppy for just
a little more, but the difiercnce in
,cost to, the unit is'slight and remem
ber, the whole thing goes to disabled
,men who need our-help. The 3,000,000
poppies made last year under the Aux
iliary National Poppy Committee
meant that over $40,000 was paid di
rect to disabled men as wages for
i their services free of course, so do the
lie gtres for these poppies goes to
help the needy and disabled service
1 man. The Auxiliary members give
tber servces free of course, so do the
hospital employees who supervise the
' wcrk.
I The American Legion was the first
national organization to adopt the pop
py as its memorial flower, having
.taken this action at the national con
vention held in Cleveland In Septem
ber 1920.
i The American Legion Auxiliary adopt
1 cd the poppy as its memorial flower
at Its organizing convention held in
Kansas City, October, 1921.
I ..When the American Legion Auxiliary
adopted the poppy it pledged the pro
fits from the sales one hundred per
cent to welfare relief for the service
men and women and their families
thus fulfilling the true meaning of
the poppy?an honorable emblem of
faith which Is being kept with all
'who died, through service to the liv
ing.
The message the poppy brings us
Is: "Buy me" I stand for service, I
enabled one cent to be earned by a
disheartened service man in the ho*,
pltal who needed It, and all you pay
for me goes for service for those for
whom the was is not yet over.
"Wear me, I represent the sacrifi
cial blood of those who fell in fland
ers field. I am a memorial to all who
died in the service. In reverence and
understanding. Wear me."

early Friday morning and stole loot
amounting to $2,540 or more, accord

from a $1,000 liberty boncA atfout
$1200 worth of notes and mortgaged
and 30 or 40 dollars In cash. It was
