LUMBER MILL MEN
 RESPOND TO APPEAL

The Arkansas Short Leaf Lumber companp and the Saline River Hard wood company recently enclosed in the pay envelopes of their employees a let ter from soldier of the National army, in which an appeal was made for the men lover there" Many of the employees have responded with contributions, and several have writ ten how the letter affected them. Here is one of the letters, written by k. w. Colding, colored man in the employ of the Short Leaf company:
 Pine Bluff, Jan. 27,191S. To the Paymaster of the Arkansas
 Short Leaf Lumber company:
 After reading the sad communica- tlon of Citizen Soldier No. 25S, Nat ional Draft army, it made my heart throb with sorrow. To think of the hardships the soldiers are now taken to save our country. You are hereby authorized to hold two dollars out of my wages the first pay day in Feb ruary. 1919, and give the same in my name to the Red Cross and Y. M. c. A., war fund. Respectfully,
 "R. w. COLDING."
 Citizen Soldiers Letter.
 The letter sent out by the lumber companies reads as follows:
 They say, who have come back from "Over There," that at night the troubled earth between the lines is carpeted with pain. They say that death rides whistling in every wind and that the very mists are charged with awful torment. They say that of all things spent and squandered there young human life is held least dear. It is not the pleasantest pros- nect for those of us who yet can feel upon our ips the pressure of our mothers goodbye kiss. But, please God, our love of life is not so prized as love of right. In this renaissance of our countrys valor, We who will edge the wedge of her assault make ! calm acceptance of it's hazards: For | us, the steel-swept trench, the stiffen- ing cold-weariness, hardship, worse, For you, for whom we go, you millions safe at home-what for you? We shall need food. We shall need care. We shall need clothes for our bodies and weapons for our hands. We shall leed terribly and without failure sup plies and equipment in a stream that S constant and never ending. From you. who are our resource and re- lance, who are the heart and hope of hat humanity for which we smite md strive, must come these things"
 (Signed.)
 "CITIZEN SOLDIER NO. 25s, -th District National Draft Army" .. Accompanying the letter was note ! which rad: "You can help by paying your in / ome tax now, by observing wheatless, neatless, porkless and sugarless meals !, nd days; by contributing to the Red Cross, War Y. M. c. A. and buying liberty bonds when you have the op- ortunity. And last, but not least, by j, regularly and efficiently to ' reduce things that are needed" 7,

= U: s. Woman Aids Hawaii.
1t is to the efforts of Mrs. Benjamin
r. Pitman, of Massachusetts, working
under the National American Woman
Suffrage association, that much Of
the credit of the Hawaiian victory is
due. Mr.. Pitmah is the son Of Chief
tainesss Kenole of Hilo, a woman who
was of great influence among her
people. When she died Pitman, then
a child, left his island home, but when
he returned to it SO years later 1t was
to find that his mothers mantle of in
fluence awaited him in the eyes of the
people. Due to this, Mrs Pitman was
in a position to feel the pulse of the
Hawaiians on woman suffrage.
Mrs. Pitman says: In the days Of
the monarchy Hawaiian women took
great interest in politics and could be
effectively active. The women are to-
day, as heretofore. possessors of great
