WILL YOU HELP
OUR 60YSABR0AD?
Every Man, Woman and Chi'd
Can Join to Send News of
This Town Into the Front Line

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. Not in oar town.

LAII) MINE BARRAGE.
Assistant Secretary of the Navy Tells
of Big Undertaking.
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

as it shows the realization of what
they were working for, as well as expresses
the appreciation of the national

that the vice chairman, Miss Llewellyn

the same able support in her

Dear Sister:?No doubt you think 1
I have treated you mean by not writing,
and really I have, pardon me,
please, and I wont be guilty any
more. *
I am here in France well, and having
a big time. We get coffee three
times daily and plenty to eat, also
plenty to do. When I come home
my riding will not cost me anything,
because I am learning to walk with
out getting tired. Ha! ha!
You be sure and write me every
week. I will get it sooner or later.
I got your card also your letter
that was sent to Camp Mills.
Give my friends that I have been
writing to, my address and tell them
to write me once a week anyway.
You need not worry about me. I
am having good health and plenty to
eat. You see that's what counts.
, You be sure and write me often and
long letters. As I have no further'
news of interest to you, will close."
Tell everybody hello for me. With
love and best wishes to you all I am,
