A proclamation by His ExeelIency, Governor Marcus H. Holcomb. enGors- ing the campaign for war camp fanTs being conducted by the Knights of Columbus:
 "The movement of the Knights of Columbus to raise a fund of $10,- 000,000, in the United States. of which a quota of s250.000 has been assigned to Connecticut, for the purpose of providing wholesome recreation for soldiers in military camps is worthy of the support of everyone who has the comfort and welfare of our soldiers at heart. This money, I am told, is to be used in the erection of recreation halls equipped with libraries shower baths, player pianos, phonogfa phs reading, and writing rooms. and sin- liar conveniences. They will be open to soldiers of all creeds. The work at the cantenments is being done by the Knights of Columbus at the re- quest of the war department and eta- tributions to their fund will, in addi- tion to increasing the comfort and the well being of soldiers who have offered themselves for the suprgme sacrifice aid the Federal Government in it's eff forts to keep the soldiers morally and physically healthy. The work is wor- thy of the support of everyone re. gardless of creed.
 MARCUS H. HOICOMR, Governor"
Norwich bulletin., 1918-01-11

Fure gratitude must inspire every one who enjoys the privileges of American opportunity to cooperate with organi- Zations delegated by the national gov ernment to provide for the moral and spiritual welfare of our soldiers and sailors who have sacrificed all for us and our country. Practical patriotism urges all of us to contribute generously co the funds that are to, be devoted to the welfare of our army and navy in manner deemed essential to vic tory by such men as President Will son, Secretary of War Baker and Gen. eral Pershing.
 Corporations and weIl-to-do non- Catholic citizens of eastern Conneeti- cut helped the K. of C. War Fund with the same generosity as that which led me and the people of every Catho- lie parish to contribute to the Y. NJ |C. A. War Fund.

 My Dear MT.

You kindly invited me to speak two weeks ago at an open meet ing attended by members of the local order and other invited guests at which time your plans were clearly outlined. Absolute and genuine American ratr', tism was the keynote and sense of the meeting, and in a ably apparent that the wFfle plan of the Knights of Columbus is to render aid, cheer and comfort to the boyf in khaki; not to give such service be- cause he is a Catholic, nor to refuse benefits because he is not. but rather to help freely and assist generously each one whom it may be possible to reach simply because he is an Amefi- can soldier waging America's battle, upholding her honor, defending her flag The work planned seems identi- cal with that of the Y.
