It is not just to raise money for needy service men and their families, though that is one of its objects. f> The real meaning of the poppy is to be found only by a visit to the blood-stained fields of France Flanders, where "Poppies blow be tween the crosses, row on row." Wherever sacrificial bloo^ was spilt on the soil hallowed by heroes' blood, the red poppy sprang up in great profusion, to beautify the war torn earth, and mark the land where heroes died. 1 v i c. v - (_ The poppy was officially adopted \by the American Legion and the Legion Auxiliary as the memorial flower. So elo^ely connected with the soldier dead an^ so significant of the cause for which they gave their! aH, the poppy is the memorial flower of the Canadian, "> the British, the Americans, who saw their sons cros.s the seas to present their young bod ;ies as a living wall to stem the tide ?of imperialism that threatened to overwhelm the liberties of the people of the earth. Wear a poppy. Wear it understand ing^. Wear it reverently. It is of hallowed memory to those who can't forget. . ERROR IN TAX ADV.
