SCRAMBLED LOS ANr.FI.F.5 IJP TV, situation at two Los Angeles egg plants is somewhat scram bled. It all began at the Acme Egg Co, where the CIO sought a labor contract. The AFL got it. At Kalin Bros, egg house, the AFL wanted a contract. The CIO got it. So the CIO began picketing Acme. AFL pickets began marching back and fourth at Kalins. No strike is involved. Revival services are still in progress in the white tent at the corner of Mitchell street and Shasta way, and the audiences are increasing in number. Evan gelist Charles G. Meyers and a group of young people from the Apostolic Bible school in Bra denton, Fla, are in charge. The young people take an ac tive part during the service ev ery night, and last night the southern mixed quartet sang. "I'll Tell You the Time," "I've Made a Covenant," "Grumbling" and "The Pearly White City." The evangelist's message Sun day night, "The Love of God." made everyone realize that the subject was very much needed today in a world of war, turmoil, and strife. The text was found in John: 34, 35, "A new com mandment I give unto you that ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples. if ye have love one to another. Lawn-Growers Ask That Dogs Be Kept Home An appeal to dog-owners to keep their pets at home until lawns and flowers are started was heard from a Klamath Falls residential district this week.

The Legion home is blooming with poppies hs the auxiliary women complete preparations for the annual observance of Poppy day here Saturday, May 24. The little red flowers of memory are being taken from the boxes in which they came frm Roscburg and Portland Veterans' hospitals, where they were made by disabled war vet erans, and arranged for distri bution on the streets on Poppy day. The poppies are made in ex act replica of the wild poppies of France and Belgium which grew in such profusion on the World war battlefields, said Mrs. Heup. They are shaped from crepe paper, with wire stems. The disabled men who make them often work under great handicaps but acquire re markable skill in producing a close resemblance to the natural flower. Many hundreds of men who could not possibly find or per form other work are given em ployment by the auxiliary In the poppy program. As this employ ment is restricted to those re ceiving little or no government compensation and who have families to support, the money I they earn brings vital help to a large number of homes. More 'than $100,000 has been paid by I the auxiliary this year in wages to the poppy makers. The men wno make flowers are the comrades of those in whose honor the poppies are worn." Mrs. Heup explained. "They are the ones who were not called upon to give their lives but to give the health and strength which makes life worthwhile. Into the little flow ers they place great memories of the past and from the work they derive new hope for the future."
