The trustees had intimated the Legion could assist in this in- struction and consequently the branch acquired 200 copies of ively cleaned out, the stock at Ontario Command. At a meeting of the poppy committee it was decided that 200 copies of this very stirring and informative story would not be enough. Subsequently a further 7.500 copies were hastily printed by Legion volunteers and these were distributed among the public. separate and Thornhaven schools. along with a poppy for each child.

While the distribution of pop- pies honors the dead of two World Wars, the funds received from the campaign serve to help the living. Under the Legion's constitu- tion, funds are held in trust -â€"- in a bank account separate from that of the Legion branch. All monies received go into this fund after expenses are deductâ€" ed for the cost of poppies and wreaths. Unlike some charit- able appeals, campaign expenses are nil; because all of the work is conducted on a voluntary basis and items such as publicity and out-ofâ€"pocket expenses are donated free of charge. Any veteran may appeal to the fund for emergency aid such as food. medical expenses or temporary shelter.

Seventy-five percent of funds received from the campaign remains in the community. The rest helps vet- erans by going to the mainten- ance of service bureaus across Canada. These are Legion departments which give any veteran or de- pendent help with pension and other problems. They will act on his behalf with the federal government, and there is no charge for this service. The ex- perience of service bureaus in handling such problems enables the Legion to keep a close check on veterans' legislation and re- commend changes where chang- es are justified.
