POPPY SALE
Do you know that 3,500,000 Poppies
were made in 1925 by the disabled men in
the hospitals in Arkansas, Minnesota, Mis
souri, Oklahoma, Oregon, Kentucky, Vir
ginia and Wisconsin under the guidance of
THE AMERICAN LEGION AUXILIARY,
and that the men are paid one cent or more
for each Poppy made?
Each year millions of poppies are sold
annually in the United States in the Nation
al Poppy sale to raise money for welfare
relief among the service men and their fam
ilies. In 1923, the first year of the American
Legion Auxiliary Poppy program over six
million poppies were sold by the Auxiliary
and Legion for this great work.
Seward has 500 Poppies to sell this year
and the Auxiliary wants to sell every one
of them before Memorial Day. Little girls
will have baskets of Poppies for sale in Se
ward on Saturday—watch for them.
CHANCE FOR MORE REVENUE
The city of Seward needs every bit of
revenue according to the budget outlined '
for this year so why not license dogs in
stead of enforcing the present lawT of keep
ing dogs chained up or behind a fence. Al
most every town and city in the world has
a license protecting the dog, so why not Se
ward?
A QUEER WORLD
“All the world’s a a queer except me and
thee, and sometimes I think thou art a lit
tle queer.” So Poor Richard philosophized
and so must have felt the Paris lawyer who
left a fortune to a lunatic asylum. He had
earned his money, he said, “from the mad
men who persist in quarreling with each
other.” His relatives are contesting the
will, claiming that he was crazy.
OH, FOR A WAGNER!
The late Richard Wagner, in his terse
way, once denounced the sound made by the
zeugeetaoin and we often wish Mr. Wag
ner had expressed an opinion of spinach.
An astronomer has discovered that the ^
moon is lopsided, but says he can not ex- (
plain the phenomenon. Possibly it has some
connection with the planet’s habit of going
around nights and getting full.
MUSIC AND BOOZE
A writer wants to know whether drink
drives drinkers to music or music drives
drinkers to drink. The answer is that when
music drives drinkers to drink it isn't mu
sic—and in these days it can hardly be call
ed drink.
NEVER TOO LATE
Now that he has lived a busy life since
childhood, cleared off the farm mortgage
and laid away a little money for his declin
ing years, Adam Berry, of Council Bluffs,
Ind., finds time for some of the less import
ant things of life so he is learning to read,
write and “figure.”
Correct this sentence: “This summer,”
said the wife, “we’ll spend our vacation
wherever you prefer.”
