UNITED WAR WORK CAMPAIGN

The we'll known author Of Mrs.
Wigs of the Cabbage Patch is one
of the most enthusiast supporters of
the United War Work campaign which
is to begin on November IL.
The distinguished writer represents
the American library association in
the drive and believes that the fight
ing men who are made happy when
not fighting will fight better. Asked
why soldiers should be supplied with
books since fighting is their mission
she effectively replied by quoting
her we'll known character, Mrs. Wigs
as follows: when some soldiers in
the Civil war was lynn around camp
tryin' to keep from freezin' to death.
a preacher came alone and when he got
up to preach he sez-'F'riends. my
text is chillblains' They ai1it no use
a-preachin' TO men whose whole
thought is set on their feet. Now you
fellows git some soft soap and pour
into them shoes and jest keep them
shoes on until your feet get well, and
next time l come around your minds
will be better prepared TO receive the
word OF the Lord -
Mrs. Rice is q mem Der Of the nation
