WILL YOU HELP OUR 60YSABR0AD? Every Man, Woman and Chi'd Can Join to Send News of This Town Into the Front Line Trenches. , WHOLE NATION MOVES TO BANISH SOLITUDE Our Herftes Are Callina From Over There?Give What You Can to Help Those From Home. Every citizen interested in the boy? of his hometown now at the front* and In the brave Women who equally are serving their country abroad, has an opportunity to Show his appreciation Of the sacrifice they are making. The opportunity comes as a result of the generosity and thought of Colonel William Boyce Thompson of New York, who has conceived and put into execution what is known as the Home Paper Service. , Under the plan, every man and woman in foreign service will receive the town newspaper, and so be kept in constant touch with the places and the people they know and love. Every branch of the United States Government is interested in the plan. The Government realizes the importance of keeping those in the service happy an^, constantly in touch with that* hnmo tips and ASROCiatiOnS. Noth ing is .more depressing in a national | emergency than the spirit of loneliness In those serving' their country, and officials know that nothing can dispel this feeling more effectually than reading the home town newspaper. Publishers of newspapers in all parts of the country?this newspaper included?have graced with pleasure the ? plan outlined by Colonel Thompson, and they have agreed to co-operate in every way. Under the ruling of the War Industries Board newspaper publishers are forbidden to se^d their newspapers free, even to soldiers. The newspaper must be subscribed for in the regular way, the only exception being soldiers who formerly were in the employ of the newspaper and who left that serv\ ice to enlist Colonel Thompson there fore proposes that the public in eacn / - community contribute to a find so^that the home newspaper (in our case this newspaper) may reach every man and woman now in the service of his conn' . Anyone may contribute to the fund, and any sum may be contributed. It is not necessary to contribute the entire ./:' * . amount of one subscription. It does not matter whether the rich man sends to one hundred dollars or the poor boy or little girl sends in five cents. Eaph - gift will be a message of love and helpfulness to the home town folks "Over There." The money will be lumped into bne fund, out of which subscriptions will-he entered as fast as the money is received. Contributors who send in the full > ' - price of a year's subscription may, if they wish, designate to what particular person they wish the newspaper sent, hut if the name given is already listed as receiving the paper, then the publ ^ lisher reserves the right to apply the subscription to some less fortunate soldier boy or noble woman who is Just as lonely for news of home and home folks. The name of every contributor to this home paper service will be published in this newspaper, and the name of everyone entered for a subscription will be published as well as the number of those remaining whose subscriptions have not been covered. . * If the amount of money received shall be more than is necessary to send the paper to every person from the town now in the service, then the balance will be turned over to the Red Cross. The plan is endorsed by the publisher of this- newspaper without any thought of profit, either directly or indirectly, but with a sincere desire to help keep the home fires burning and to send to our heroes and heroines x news of our town, to keep their hearts / warm for us and to let them know they axe constantly in our minds. The publisher, of course, cannot make a profit on circulation, and additional circulation guch as this will be? Hrrnlfltion from non-Durchasers sent fer across the sea?can have no added yalne to the advertiser. These facta are stated so that every contributor may feel that every cent 4?ntributed goes to the good cause. The mothers of ourNboys are facing an ordeal with a bravery that commands respect and admiration. Here and there where tiny stars are turned from blue to gold, where anguish grips th^ heart, the nation stands In silence and honors the women who have given of their blood, the very bone of their bone, to their country. To them, home / has lost its meaning?the soul of it has fled?there is no home, it is just a place, and no place is quite so lonely, unless it be within the hearts of those brave sons in far off France who long for just a word of home. There cannot be a man, there cannot be a woman, no, not even a child, who will fail to contribute just a little to make the hearts of these patriots lighter, one.

Washington, Oct. 21.?Construction of the North sea mine barrage against submarines, laying of an oil pipe .line across Scotland, and construction of naval stations from the Spanish border to the English channel, and other details of the work of the American forces abroad were told today by Assistant Secretary Roosevelt, who recently returned from a visit to Europe. "The American people seem to have very little idea of the extent of our naval activities abroad," said Secretary Roosevelt. "The tendency is to think merely of convoying and patrol work our destroyers and other vessels are doing and the presence of our battleships with the British fleet. But important as that is it is only a part of our activities and there are dozens of other things of imporance of which little has been said." Big Undertaking. The building of the northern barrage was one of the largest things ever achieved in ordnance work, Mr. Roosevelt said. In turning out material for it a number of plants in this country were kept busy for months. "Several American bases were established on the British coast to lay and handle the mines. To save hauling of oil the American navy has undertaken to construct a pipe line across Scotland. Guarded by Air Forces. "All the way from the Spanish border clear around to the English channel," said Mr. Roosevelt, "we have established aviation stations so placed that the entire coast line is covered by seaplanes and dirigibles. These stations were built almost entirely by our sailors. At each station there is an everage of from 200 to 300 men. This aviation force and our patrol vessels have been doing such splendid work that for the last six months there have been practically no sinkings within fifty miles of the French coast. We hope to extend this patrol zone." In northern France in cooperation with the British and Belgians, Secretary Roosevelt said there had been established what is known as the northern bombing group, composed of a number of aviation .'units, which did much to prevent the Germans from again us- 1 ing Zeebrugge and Ostend as submarine bases. Americans Busy. An American naval force cooperating, with the British at Gibraltar is patrolling the Atlantic in that vi- , cinity and is acting as convoy to ves- * sels going to and from Italy, Greece and Egypt. There is a flying school j with several naval aviation units on j duty in Italy while in the Adriatic is a large group of submarine chasers. Each naval base has its hospital, Secretary Roosevelt said, and in Scotland an entire watering place has been taken over by the Americans for : use as a hospital. , "Conditions have vastly improved ! from what they were last year," said the seceratry in referring to the submarine menace. "But we cannot afford to let up in opr activities for 1 one single second. In regard^ to the { respect which u-boats have shown for < international law, you have but to ; ask any officer or man in oulr own or ' British or French navies. They will, , i tell you of, and prove to you, great 1 numbers of actual cases where the Hun has. violated every rule and ev- ( ery principle of humanity." i ^ ? ? ] Thanks Prom Mrs. W. G.
