The little red flowe: are being arranged in Dbaskets ready for the workers to take out ! Saturday morning and the coin boxes into which poppy purchasers will drop their contributions for the welfare of the disabled and dependents are being made ready. “There is a tradition in France,” | Mrs. Monagle said, “that on the battlefields where the men fell | most thickly the poppies bloom in greatest profusion.
