Mrs. Jordan, Who Is Local Chairman, Announces the Recent Contributions
 Received

Mrs Mortimer Jordan chairman of the 167th regiment tobacco fund for the Birmingham district, announces that the fund has now reached S2775 since 1t was begun in March. She is grateful for the recent contributions because it assures the sending of a check for the boys Christmas celebration.
 Christmas packages will be limited and the boys may thus have few extra trimmings for the turkey dinner or to be spent as they choose.
 When we consider the terrific fight- ing that the regiment has had" said Mrs, Jordan, "an almost constant conflict since July 14 of their hardships and losses, we realize that the folks back home must do all they can to make Christmas as cheerful as possible tor them.
 In Mir. Borden Burr's diary of the l67th regiment, he says:
 On July Il there was distributed to the boys cigarettes and tobacco from the labama tobacco fund. Could those in charge of the fund and the donors see the delight of the boys on receiving their allotment of the cigarettes and tobacco they would be more than repaid for their generosity. and would have an added zeal for carrying all their good work in the future.
 Since this shipment others have been sent with frequent regularity. That they may continue, check for any amount may be sent to Mrs. Mortimer Jordan, 1449 Miner Crescent.
 The following checks have been received
