Commander Lynn U. Stambaugh,
"What advantage would there be
.for me to belong to The Ameri
can Legion?" Stambaugh saw
that the oolonel was a strong,
healthy, resourceful young Amer
ican in full possession of his fa
culties, and replied, "The Amer
ican Legion has no advantages to
offer you Colonel. You have oome
out of this mess with no disabili
ties. You do not need the Legion.
All the Legion could offer you
would be an opportunity to work
your head off for the fellowB,
who were less fortunate than you
in the outoome of their service."
That's the kind of veterans

To Be May 24th
Memorial poppies which will
be worn here on Poppy Day, May
24, in honor of the dead of both
world wart, were received today
by Wilkes county Unit of the
American Legion Auxiliary. The
little red flowers came from
Oteen where they were made by
disabled veterans employed by
the Auxiliary.
"The poppies are crepe paper
replicas of the wild poppies
which grow in France and Bel
gium where so many of the bat
tles of both wars were- fought,"
explained Mrs. Henry Landon.
'They are the popples which
grew 'between the crosses, row
on row,' in the World War 1 bat
tle cemeteries and so became the
memorial flower for the wST
dead. Now they symbolise mem
ory for those who died for Amer
ica on land, sea and in the air in
every part of the world.
"Each flower is made by hand
by a disabled veteran, the paper
petals carefully attached to the
wire stem and shaped to resem
ble the blooms with which nature
decorated the battle field graves, i
The work gives the disabled men
something interesting to do dur-j
ing the long hours of hospitali
zation and convalescence. It oc
cupies their hand and minds, j
helping them get well. It also1
enables them to earn money, i
which builds their morale and
makes things easier for them
selves and families."
The poppies are being unpack
ed and counted by the Auxiliary's
poppy committee and made rea
dy for the volunteer workers who
will distribute them in all parts
of the city on Poppy Day. No
price will be asked for the lit
tle flowers hut everyone receiv
ing one will be asked to con
tribute something for the wel
fare' of the disabled veterans,
their families and the families
of the dead . . ."The Poppy Day
contribution makes possible the
Legion Auxiliary's extensive re
habilitation and child welfare
work," Mrs. Landon said.
