Made War Fund

The Y. NJ C. A. War Work fund So
licitors have been highly gratlhed at
the liberal response made by the peo-
pie of Canon City and the surround
ing territory to this patriotic under
taking and regard the great number
of donations that have been made by
the citizens of the community ne an
evidence of their interest in the sol
dier boys who have boon called upon
to hght the battles of the republic.
Giving to this splendid enterprise has
been made cheerfuify. as well as gen
erously. and there all honor lies. In
numerous instances strangers and Wis
itors in town have asked to be permit
ted to contribute to the movement. In
fact. there was hardly a committee
enlisted in the campaign that did not
receive some money from people OF
that kind. Loyal citizens everywhere
are becoming more and more con-
WINGED that not only are their liberties
at stake in this war and that IL must
be won for the forces OF democracy
IL we are to be permitted to pursue
our national ideals. With these con-
victions in mind 1t Is not only a pleas
ure. but a duty to give to great pa
triotic war work fund.
If there is anybody in Fremont
county that has not been asked TO
give something to this fund and de-
sires to do SO they are privileged to
go to the campaign workers and make
their contribution. In Canon City
such payments may be made to Sec.
retary Van Patten of the Y.M.C.A.. TO
