Legion Marks Armistice Anniversary By Poppy Sale Poignant, remainder of those spacious days of glory and of grieving, "Poppy Day" once more recurs to prompt the citizens of this country in the duties they have inherited from the past generation. To Canadian youth in this' year of grace, the deep -red pet- als of the Poppy may not carry the same significance they bare to tine youth of twenty years ago. The sym- bolism of sacrifice with which the Poppy has become charged Is some- thing to which the present genera- tion succeeds oniy through the wist- ful memories of the aging men who fought their country's battles, who suffered privations, endured long ag- ontey, and finally triumphed amid sur- roupdings carpeted with poppies. To wear this humble emblem on Poppy Day is to proolaim that amid all the janglittg confusion through which this country "rs, striving valiant- ly to penetrate, the heart and mind are nevertheless attua di to a sense Of homage due to those Men whose peace Inspired 600;000 Chmadlalira t0 offer themsienves' far Service' bet-Weou, 1914 and, 1818; of 'Which Mitebtet Wee than 60,000 found gl aveaa 'lav ;s3,1.0: rani B+ 1 itYaiv It • that the Poppy blows in perennial bloom. The numbered deed were not strangers. They were Young •Cana- d'ien.s. some of them well known in this community, filled even as the youth of today is filled, with the joy of living. So also were the 170,060 men Who in 1937 bear upon their beelines the marks and scars of war: tbe disabled ex -sera rine 'men who suf- fered disablement on behalf of Can- ada. To manifest that proud recognition of their place in thus' country, to mark that tribute which is their doe, Poppy Day !has been set. asride In or- der that all may join in recalling the Great Sorrow.
