Uncommon Americans By Elmo Scott Watson------ Christmas Flower HEN you buy one of those YV scarlet-petaled flowers called the poinsettia to add to the festive appearance of your home at Christ mas time, you are helping perpetu ate the fame of an American who little realized that his name would become associated with one of the symbols of the Yuletide. For Joel R. Poinsett had so many other claims to distinction that it seems curious he is best remembered be cause a flower bears his name! Born in South Carolina in 1779, he studied both medicine and military science abroad but his father in duced him to abandon his intention of entering the army and to be come a student of law. Poor health forced him to give that up and he asked President Madison for a com mission in the army. He was about to be appointed quartermaster-gen eral when the secretary of war ob jected. Instead he was sent on a dip lomatic mission to South America where he mixed in the politics of Chile, and fomented revolution un til he became known as “the scourge of the American continent’’ and was recalled. Next he was sent to Mexico. Always interested in botany, he brought back from that country the flower which was given the scientific name of “Poinsettia Just as he had been a stormy petrel in international politics, so he was a disturbing element in the politics of his native land. During the Nullification controversy in South Carolina he organized and led the Unionist forces. By doing that he won the esteem of the nation al government and President Van Buren made him secretary of war. Poinsett improved and enlarged the army, organized a general staff, built up the artillery, directed the Seminole war and managed the re moval of some 40,000 Indians to In dian Territory. In the midst of this activity his scientific interests were not neglected. He experimented with scientific agriculture, sent out the Wilkes expedition into the Ant arctic and was largely instrumental in founding the National Institute for the Promotion of Science and the Useful Arts which later was merged with the Smithsonian Insti tution. His busy career came to an end in 1851 while he was living in retirement as a plantation owner in his native state. n Newspaper Union. STOCK SALES Service bulls delivered any time. C. N.
