Where the People
 May Have Hearing
A PLEA FROM FRANCE

To the Editor of the Arizona Repub- hcan.
 My dear Editor:
 Will you permit me through the columns of your valuable paper to a gain appeal to the generosity of a people who have already so nobly re- sponded to our call for help.
 It is to those who have been students in Paris many of them pupils of mine. that I specially will appeal to for and for the thousands of totally destitute women and children at Pont a Nous son and it's vicinity, which has been bombarded eighty times till almost nothing remains of the town.
 Our little band of workers has lab Ored hard ali winter to supply the meageIcst necessities, but the need grows continually. so I am pleading for the naked and starving and daring to hope ts.at my plea will meet with re- sponse.
 No matter how small the sum, do not hesitate to sen4 it. Every twenty five cents means a days food for mother and child whose gratitude will be un- speanable As every penny is distrib uted by my own hand not one will go astray. Thanking you in advance
 l am in sincere gratitude, l.. BOBARD FATOUX Wife of Captain Fatoux aux chasseurs a pied.
