Help Tobacco Fund.

Editor MisSoulan:
| wish, through your valued paper
to call upon the men of Missoula who
are barred from military service be-
cause Of various physical disable

to the tobacco fund which is being
raised throughout the state to buy
smoking material for our boys in
France.
Help them out, men. Do without
one chew, one smoke, or one cocktail
each day, and give the money saved
TO the tobacco fund. 1t won't be harA
to give up some of your personal
pleasure when You think of the cheer
it will bring the boys in the trenches.
Ponder carefully and attempt to see
your way through this small sacrifice.
