by taking him, badly injured
from a motorcycle accident, to a

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.
Canine frolics in freshly seed
ed lawns, and bones buried in
soft flower beds have perturbed
more than one gardener in the
area, the anonymous informant
declared, adding that most peo
ple would rather not use the
time-honored method of chasing
the dogs off with rocks.
Schmor returned to their homes
near Bonanza. Monday.
Dan Driscoll left Tuesday for
an extended visit to Modesto.
Calif., where he will visit with
his daughter. Mrs. Agnes
Mangue. He was accompanied
by Mrs. James Driscoll and Ed
win Driscoll of Klamath Falls.

"Memories of the past and
hopes for the future that is
what goes into the making of a
memorial poppy." saut Mrs. A
P Heup as she took one of the
poppies apart and explained its
structure at the American Legion
home here today.
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."
