SUPPORT MRS. MONROE
Her Tobacco Stand Meets With APP
provaI From Over State.

Mrs. Lila Day Monroe is not with
out an army of supporters in her
stand in the State Journal for tobacco
for men in the United States army.
From allssections of Topeka and from
over. the state have come letters and
telephone calls congTatulating the To-
peka woman on ner stand Last week
Mrs. Monroe declared two West Nir-
GINA ministers, who journeyed to To-
peka to oppose the tobacco campaign,
were unknowingly boosting the Kali
ser'S own game
1t was St. Marys woman who to-
day gave Mrs Monroe the greatest
support in her denunciation of the
silly reforms and uplifts led by the
West Virginia missionaries. In the
letter to Mrs. Monroe, the st. Marys
woman said she was not at all inn
prs ssed with the plea of the West Vir-
giliians-and some Kansans-for high
and sanity ideals for the soldiers
And the St. Mays woman has four
sons in the service, too. That isn't
all Each of the four boys smokes Gig
arettes. cigars and pipes. Further, the
ST Marys mother challenges the world
to match a few hot house, home grown
anti-cigarette models against her Of
fering to the national government.
''One of these sons is a doctor and
in the medical corps, the woman
wrote TO me, Sdlu MIS- AOHTOe- An
other son is a graduate of the state
university school of law. A third son
is a cadet at West Point and the
fourth son is in the medical reserve
corps. 1t isn't a really bad showing
for one family, do you think? And
how shocked some reformer must be
to know that the mother of these stall
wart, fighting sons really admits her
sons smoke the vile cigarettes and
declares she doesn't think it hurts

TO ENLARGE
MUNY DOCK

Because passenger traffic at the
Municipal dock is becoming too
congested for safety, Commission
er Atkins told the city council
Tuesday he was making plans for
doubling the size of the dock.
A large new waiting room will
be constructed on the ground floor
with new runway leading to 1t
from 18th street. 1t is proposed
to use one waiting room for in
coming passengers and the other
for outgoing.
Because of huge crowds of SOL
diers travelling to Seattle on We'd
nesdays and Saturdays the NUM-
cipal dock has become entirely too
small.
On the last two Saturday after
Moons the line of persons waiting
to buy tickets for the Seattle
steamers has extended all the way
from the dock ticket office to the
Tacoma building at 18th and A
streets.

No details were received here
today.
Up until the encounter reported
today, American patrols doing
night duty scouting in front of
the trenches had found German
patrols disinclined to offer battle
during the last few days.
Night accommodating is an i'm

Boy Is
Human
Torch

His nightgown catching
fire while he was building a
fire in the family heater
Monday morning, Thomas
Patterson Kendrick, age 10
years and nine months, was
SO badly burned about the
back and shoulders that he
died at a late hour Monday
night.
Thomas was the son of Mr.. and
Mrs. William e. Kendrick, 1897 ~
No. Cheyenne St, who recently
moved to Tacoma from juneau,
Alaska.
The child arose earlier than
his parents Monday and decided
to build a fire before dressing.
Stuffing wad of paper in the
mouth Of the heater, Thomas
stood too close to the stove as
he set a match to 1t. His night
gown blazed up in a circlet of
flame.
Running from the room,
screaming with pain, the child
was met by his father, who wrap
ped a blanket about the blazing
body.
Thomas struggled so frantically
VA his pain that he wriggled loose
from the blankets and ran around
the SOON once more, his night
dress still flaming.
BY the time Kendrick had ef-
fectually extinguished the blaze,
the boys body had been terribly
scared.
DR.. Gaul, neighbor, attended
the boy constantly Monday, but
every effort to save his life was
futile. eDath came at 1920 Mon
day night. The body was removed
to Buckley-King Co.'S.
