The posters are on display at the central office of Medford public schools until Saturday noon for those who wish to view the winners. The poster contest is held an nually before the Memorial day sale of paper poppies held by the Legion auxiliary to raise funds for its welfare projects. The poppies have become the symbol of sacrifice made by men during World War I and subse quent conflicts, since they were the one flower which survived war's destruction and bloomed in the cemeteries of France and Belgium where the soldier dead were buried. The paper replicas of the pop py are made during the year by veterans in hospitals throughout the nation, and sold by the Le gion auxiliary. In Oregon they are made at hospitals in Port land, Roseburg and Camp White, Medford. Auxiliary members point out that the memorial pop pies not only honor the dead but aid the living. - - Veterans who make the pop pies also derive double benefit from the, work. It gives them employment the only chance for many of them to earn any money and the funds from the sales then go for welfare proj ets for veterans and their fami lies. The auxiliary provides the materials and the veterans are paid two cents for each poppy made. Girls' Coats Shorrys or long. Rayon and wool or all wool. Sizes 3 to 6x, 7-14.
