Wondering about a small flower and an old poll.

I found the first wild flower that I have seen since last winter and early spring.  It was in a place up where my covered rear porch meets the house, so any rain or dew that came off the roof would hit that area.  Now this is by no means a huge flower, in fact you would hardly notice it if you didn’t look close.  First I will show you a close up view of a flower with a dime in the picture to give you a sense of scale:

And now the full plant:

A little sign that life still exists.

Now let us jump back in time to between 1935 and 1939. In 1939 it was twenty two years after The World War. No it wasn’t called the first world war back then, since there was not a second WW, it was the only World War. There was trouble brewing in Europe and in the April 17, 1939 issue of LIFE magazine, they printed the results of a poll that reflects the changing mood of Americans between 1935 and 1939. I thought that it was very interesting, having the advantage to know what did happen a short time later.

The first couple of questions were “Will America Get Into the Next War?” Yes or No. And “Should America Send Troops to Help Britain and France Fight Germany and Italy?” Yes or No.

The next question was about economic aid to Britain and France.

The last question concerned Americans’ feeling about Germany.

I found this poll rather interesting.  You may have to enlarge the view to read it.  You all have a great day now you hear?
