DISCOURAGE WOMEN
ADOPTING SAMMIES

With the American Army in France.
Dec. 24-(By the Associated Press.)
The American expeditionary force
wishes to discourage the budding prac-,
tice of American women in adopting
individual soldiers in France for the
period of the war. The practice al
ready threatens to choke the congest-
ed mail service and result in delay in
the transmission of important matter.
Moreover the censorship regulations
forbid the men to correspond with
strangers and as this rule is being en-
forced rigidly it is desired that the
people at home refrain from putting
men here III an embarrassing position
as they feel under obligation to an
swer such communications.
An example of the interest certain
women at home are taking in "adop-
tons is an advertisement which
reached headquarters, showing the
picture of pretty girl and urging SOL
diers without godmothers to write to
a given address.
