$4,000 Will Not Cover
Cost of Presents Sent to
u. S. Soldiers in Mexico

Field Headquarters, Mexico. Dec. 20.
-Twenty-fiv thousand dollars will not
cover the cost of presents the people
of the United States have sent to the
soldiers of the punitive expedition, 1t
was estimated to-day by the commit
tee in charge of the Christmas cele-
bration. Nothing of parsimony has
been displayed by the senders. 1t was
said that the value of more than ten
thousand packages to be delivered is
nearly three dollars each. Although a
majority of the gifts have come from
various Red Cross chapters, hundreds
have come from individuals.
The six large tents where the pack
ages are stored resemble department
stores. Among the large consignments
are forty-one thousand cigars, eleven
thousand pounds of candy, three hun
dred pounds of smoking tobacco, six
thousand comfort bags, two thousand
Christmas packages, barrels of home
made jellies and two complete sets of
baseball equipment. The list of con-
tents of one shipment of comfort bags
shows the usefulness of this class of
Christmas remem mbrances. Each bag
holds a complete housewife" a pack
age of tobacco with cigaret papers,
writing paper and envelopes, dental
floss, tooth brush and powder, pencil
and shoe strings. Many of the pack
ages come wrapped in handkerchiefs
while one shipment was in the form
