Wear Sunflower in France.

The fame of the sunflower as the emblem of Kansas has penetrated France, and is the object of much appreciation on the part of the French people, according to word received at Camp Funston. A letter from a member of the Eighth division states that the members of the division all wear a big sunflower on an arm band as a distinguishing emblem of the division, which received Its training here. The division, the first to be trained at Camp Funston, was trained by Maj. Gen. Leonard Wood.
