top of the list for 50, then handed it
to his friends as he met them with
the word that boys, here is a good
thing, and all of the boys, from as
far east as Warren, Pa, and as far
west as Livingston, Mont, from St.
Paul, Minneapolis, Fargo, Moorhead,
Valley City, jamestown, Mandan
and other North Dakota points, put
their names down for contributions.
Mr.. Williams is modest, far too
modest. He doesn't want any credit
for what he has done, but every loyal
American citizen, whether or not a
tobacco user, who can appreciate
what the tens Of thousands of Am
erican boys over there are putting
up with without their favorite tobac-
CO, which the American Red Cross
has said is essential to their health
and comfort, will understand.
Again, hats off to Mr.. Williams.
Fund Nears $500 Mark.
With SAT credited today, the
tobacco fund nears the $500 mark.
The exact figure is $377.76.
Five hundred dollars is the goal
fer the next week. Mr. Williams has
shown how one man can boost a good
thing along. Miss Thora Broderson,
Velva, who collected and sent in ISL
Thursday, has shown what a woman
can do.
The path has been broken for any
man or woman in the northwest, who
would do something for the boys
over there. START TODAY.
