However, Phillips point. out that through April S77388.U has been collected. The all-time high for one year was the 1998-57 fiscal year when 8800,080 was collected in Duplin. For the 1957-58 fiscal year, col lections were 8754,171.74. This means that the current fiscal year collections have already exceeded last year's total receipts. The current year's tax collect ion fiscal year will end around the middle of June. Phillips estimates that between $7,000 and 87,500 has been received so far during the month of May.

Ufe ivc.tr a by: Lee Maxwell, ' Chairman Poppy Drive, Roe 379 The idea of the Poppy as a Memorial flower for the World War dead, sprang up as naturally as the little wild flower itself grows in the fields of France. The flower was the touch of beauty to survive amid the hid eous destriction of war. Along the edges of the tranches, ben eath the tangled barbed Wire, about the rugged shell holes and over the fresh graves, it raised ' its brave red blossoms. It was during World War Tne, that Col. John McCrae jvrote the immortal poem "In Slan der's Field, the Poppies blow, Be neath the Crosses, row n row." The poem has winged its way around the world; and hasau sed the humble poppy to take on a sacred significance. It tias be come the flower of remembrance for our boys who poured out their life's blood around the roots of the little plant, in France, and many other far-flung places. Memories of war dead always bring thoughts of those who did not die, but come back doomed to years of hard-ship and suffer ing, sometimes worse than death. Thousands of disabled veterans, all over our land, are .making little red paper poppies while they sit on wheel chairs or lie propped up in bed.,.. - n - . The Veterans derive double be nefit from the work. .First,, it gives them employment .their only chance, to help support . themselves -and their, lainilies. ; Second: the work is of real value in occupying hands -end- minds, breaking the- tedium of long idl- ; en ess and restoring spirits cru- shed by hopelessness.- , I V' Every year, Just before Memo- y rial Day, an Army of women (The American Legion Ahxili-: ary) go out to pin a little paper J -poppy over every .heart that re- -members. .! -'' .;''-' ; When we call on you.
