The distribution of these cards will
solve the problem of how the soldiers
overseas are going to remember the
folks back home at Christmas tima.
Many letters received by the Red Cross
from men in France show that the sol
diers have been giving much thought
to this question. As military and pos
tai regulations will make it difficult
for them to send gifts of any kind
from the other side, the Christmas
cards will be doubly welcome. Some of
the best known artists in the country
contributed the card designs to TIE
Red Cross.

BOYS OVERSEAS MAY SEND
CHRISTMAS CARDS HOME

Every American soldier in France is
to have the opportunity of sending
friends in this country through the me-
dium of Christmas cards to be provided
by the American Red Cross. More than
100000 of these cards, which are
original in design and typically Amer
lean in spirit, have been forwarded to
France and will be distributed by Red
Cross workers to our fighting men in
time to permit their return to this coun-
try for the Christmas celebration.

TWENTY YEARS AGO
Items Taken From The Post Issued the
Second Week in December, 1918

The agitation in regard to the polu.
tion of the Roaring Fork water is de.
veloping the fact that people are more
ready to fight for that which contrib.
utes to good health than for the mere
accumulation of gold and silver. The
contamination of the beautiful stream
of water to the extent of endangering
the health, and even the lives, of the
people who are compelled to use the
water is wrong which can not be tol-
Grated. The law is with the settlers,
and they should and will win in their
fight against the Aspen corporation.

Denver and Fort Collins.
