in making the fighting forces more

L--Srmation gathered at the head
quarters here of the War Camp Com
mStity Recreation Fund, where the
campaign is being directed.
AS Indicative of public enthusiasm
over the movement, it is pointed out
that in one of the very few towns
where an organized campaign was
not agreed upon, the leading citizens
of that town began collecting contri-
buttons and it was expected that the
total amount collected would proba-
bly, exceed the quota which had first
been suggested. Merchants in many
cities are placing contribution blanks
on their counters, the blanks are
found on hotel desks, in telegraph

"Be a War-Daddy," is the slogan
of the supporters of the movement,

the fact that for three dollars any
civilian may adopt the fighting man,
during his hours of leisure, or. in
other words, assume the role of fos-
ter parent while the young soldier is
absent from the calS9. Some, not
satisfied with simply adopting one
soldier, are taking over groups and
whole companies. In fact, promi-

r. e. King, superintendent of the
mail service, has left for other points,
after brief official visit to the city.
Mr.. King spent the day in the city
Tuesday looking over local condi-

stated that more mail is travelling
through the terminal at Atlanta at

Christmas season of last year.
The official cited this fact as one
reason why the Christmas mailing
should be done early, for there will
no doubt be larger shipment of
packages this year than ever before
IN 5ne history OF the country, owing
to the vast number of men away from
