DISABLED VETERANS in veteran hospitals and homes, such
as the group pictured above, make the Buddy Poppies offered for
sale each year by the Veterans of Foreign Wars to aid the ogani-
zation in its service and rehabilitation work and maintenance of
the V.F.W. National Home, Eaton Kapids. Mich., for the orphans
and widows of fighting men.
MeFiirliine proved she knows more
ilout feeding humming birds than
the St. Louis zoo.
When one ot the tiny creatures
knocked itself out against a closed
window at the Mef irlane home,
she took it but didn't know what
to feed it. The zoo experts pre-
w.'ribed milk and liuiioy — which I
almost killed the humming bird. ' COUNTY COMMISSIONER
Mrs. McFarlane finally hit on a
vitamin formula intended for b;i-
bies. The humtning bird responded
ipiickly and apparently is going to
make the McFarlane residence its
permanent, home.
