KHAKI SMOKES
ARE GOING YET
BUT STAR-MIRROR WILL CLOSE
ITS SUBSCRIPTION FUND
JANUARY /

The Star-Mirror will close its fund
for the American soldiers in France
on January 1. 1t is highly gratified
with the response made by the cit
liens of the community. While there
has been conscientious objection to
this movement to send across the to-
bacco the American men have been
the other hand been Endorsement from
some of the leading citizens of the ma
ton For illustration:
Cardinal Gibbons secretary writes
''His Eminence Cardinal Gibbons has
read of the movement to supply to-
| bacco to the American soldiers in
France which you have organized, and
is happy to add his endorsement He
is confident that it will meet with
the heartiest cooperation of the
American people"
Theodore Roosevelt give the fol-
lowing endorsement: II wish you all
possible success in your admirable
effort to get our boys in France to-
bacco''
But The Star-NIirror feels now as
and that it is justified in closing the
fund. Upward of 5000 has been con-
tributed here in Moscow showing that
the appeal in behalf of the khaki boys
was justified.

Whereas, In the death of Sister Tom
er association has lost a member
whose place cannot be filled. She
was a woman of many virtues, largely
endowed with the spirit of true west
ern hospitality. No service was ever
too great to be performed by her, for
those she loved. She was the living
example of the true motherhood as ex
emplified in the lives of the early set
tiers of this country, and we ex-
tend our heartfelt sympathy to the be-
reaved husband who travelled the I'M
even journey of life, hand in hand
with her for over so years.
Resolved, That copy of these res

and a copy be forwarded to the hus-
band of the deceased, also to each of
