Legion Poppies to Be Sold
The war is over for most of us,
but is it over for everyone T How
about the men in the hospitals?
Many of them have been there ever
sinoe the war, many of them will nev
er leave the hospitals. These men
enlisted in the prime of life—they
had their aspirations, some were in
the midst of college courses when
their country called; they were study
ing to be doctors, lawyers, engineers;
others had just started out in busi
ness for themselves; most of them
were wage earners, and now they
spend* their days in the hospitals
throughout the land. They are not
down-hearted, the atmosphere of
cheer pervades the Government hos
pitals, and facing this disappoint
ment in the fulfillment of their hopes
and their dreams, they can still smile.
These are our heroes! Must we
have the tread of marching feet, the
cheers of the watching throngs to
recognise them? We cheered them
when they, marched away, we cheered
them when they came back to us—who
cheers them now?
The vision of the American Legion
and the American Legion Auxiliary
goes far—it sees the handicap of the
children whose fathers fell or whose
fathers are now in the hospitals. A
comrade’s silent cal) has reached the
Legion’s heart, and the Legionaires
have answered this call by gathering
these children to them and providing
for them homes, with the atmosphere
and background of a real home, when
it is not possible to keep these chil
dren and mothers together or have
the children adopted.
This service program of the Ameri
can Legion costs large sums of money,
and as the Government generously
provides for the hospitals and main
tenance, so the income from the Le
gion Endowment Fund will take care
of the big items of the Legion’s per
manent service work, but the local
and temporary service work will and
must ba carried on by the local Posts
and Units.
