Houston's outfeld this afternoon 1t was
possible to comprehend the reason for

Novel Means Of Communication.
Wounded British soldiers in the
hands of the Germans have hit upon
novel way of communicating with their
families and friends at home. They
subscribe small sums of money to the
German Red Cross society, but as few
of them have any cash they fill up a
draft or sign a check to be sent to
London and honored. On the back OF
the draft the banker is requested to
communicate the news of the drawers
safety to his home. Tommy Atkins
thinks it is well worth dollar sub
