The president of the Non
Smokers Protective League of
America has addressed an open
letter to President Wilson protest
ing against giving tobacco in any
form to American soldiers and
praying that the cultivation of
tobacco be prohibited because the
land should produce food. He calls
supplying tobacco to soldiers a
crime and abuses the American
Red Cross for being party to it
Mobile Register.
Looks very much as if some
people are getting silly in their
anxiety for the welfare of other
people. They should be given
something to do. Some occupation
to keep their minds off the glaring
iniquities practiced by others. To
make people good by law seems to
be the aim of'many of these reform
ers of the Il am holier than thou"
stamp. We might suggest that
instead of writing such twaddle and
preaching things to do for others,
that they abstain from their efforts
to revolutionize existing conditions
in habits and turn their attention
to knitting socks or doing some
thing of benefit to the human race.
This don't" bunch should change
their tune and do" instead OF
don't.

Christmas Seals

The date for beginning the
Red Cross Seal Campaign has
| been advanced from November
18th to November 5th.
DR.. I. j. Murphy Of the Min
nesota Public Health Association,
State Manager, announces the fol-
lowing messages just received:
1.-The american Red Cross
valves the restriction in the con-
tract that no agent put seals on
sale before November 9Th.
"We understand that mail to
reach the soldiers in France be-
fore Christmas must be mailed
not later than November 18th and
preferably at an earlier date.
The advantage Of allowing an
early sale of Red Cross Seals by
local campaign managers for
packages going to our soldiers is
obvious. Accordingly the Amer
lean Red Cross valves the restric-
ton in the contract which made
November 18th the opening day,
providing Red Cross Seals be not
placed on sale before November
5th.
Continuing DR.. Murphy said !:
"Red Cross Seal Supplies have
already been sent to the towns
where campaign managers volun-
teered early. Any community
that is not ready to start it's cam
paign on the opening day, No
vember 9Th may be considered
lacking in patriotism.
"This year more than ever the
American Red Cross expects to
see rousing campaigns in every
community of each Of the states.
The fund raised is to be devoted
for the most part to tuberculosis
war problems; the Red Cross Seal
Campaign is the only Red Cross

so prompt that the rail roads are
now convinced that they can rely
on hearty cooperation by ship

duce the necessary results and is

puisory tariff measures. There

The mill is now operating and it
appears that the company is on a
successful basis. The delay in
getting things IN operating shape
was due to the fact that needed
transformers could not be
promptly obtained for the cleo

tions are encouraging and full

Every Mans Land
lie Pays De Tout Homme)
By JOHN FINLEY

There's strip of the Earth
That's of infinite worth,
Though a craterous, sterile space;
Its borders trench
And the ground of it's French,
But it's leased by the human race.
1t is many leagues long,
But so narrow, song
Can span with a quaver this strait.
Yet when Lucifer fell
From high Heaven to He'll
No farther he flew to his fate.
No loved attitudes line
Does this region define;
1t wanders in aimless extent,
Like trickle of blood
Ger globe all bestud
With landmarks of ancient descent
BY the World it is titled,
And its acres are filled
With the harrows of MoIoch's moil.
While the myriad mind
Of the whole human kind
Come daily to- watch it's grim toll.
In it's skies are no birds,
In it's pastures no herds,
Save airplanes and tauben and
tanks;
Ger its every red brood,
The cannon clouds brood,
tic ~
By Pentecost flame
Is lit every name
From Ypres to the Vosgian tarn:
In every known tongue
Are its syllables sung
Through every mans speech runs
the Marine.
For it's Every Mans Land"
And every mans hand
That has tough. for Liberty there
Has but helped clear the site
For the temples of Right
That will spring in it's valiant air.
And some day there will rise
In the sight of mems eyes
A Pantheon, out in this field,
Mid the iron stained clods
Where the poilus, grown gods,
The spirit of France have revealed.
And with it will stand
In this "E> cry Mans Land"
(Not no mans but every mans
ground)
The impregnable walls
Of Detachable Halls
Where Earth's greatest seers will
be found;
Where every lands Youth /:
Will look for the Truth
At the. end of the planets wars
Where blood-burgeoning flowers
Love-lingering bowers
Will lift at their luminous doors.
Gle Pays de Tout Homme!"
BY the Meuse and the Somme
Well love thy brave soil as our
own;
Thy tenuOuS thread
Is the pledge of thy dead
That Might shall not pass to
Earth's throne.
On the ruins of hates
The United World States
Will build in thy trenches their
fame
To a Freedom, worldwide,
That they who have died
Shall not one have persisted in vain.
