back are on the point of beginning life
anew they wish to make donations to
The SUN Tobacco Fund. Isn't II right
TOT this fund to tell them TO wait until
Things have settled down a little more
for themselves before>they give? Surely
the donors will think this was the right
thing to do. but to make It "all round"
right these donors should repeat their
own gifts as quickly as possible.

quarters Thirty-sixth Division "a. p. o.

donor q. A. Clark: This IL to let YOU
know that have this day been smoking
some, OF the TOBACCO that you so geii-
erously subscribed for through THE
SUN Tobacco Fund, and / desire to ex-
press my appreciation for the same and
there are at least 100 other boys in the
headquarters detachment smoking som,
OF 1t, although you may not hear from
them, -.
Just as we came out of the front
lines the Quartermaster made a distribu-
ton OF THE Sun Tobacco Fund tobacco
and cigarettes. and believe me, II was ap-
preciated at that time, for every man
wanted cigarettes and could not get them
Tor love or money. l again. thank you
very. very much.
This soldier sends to his fund friend
a picture of the Casino and Gardens of
Monte Carlo along with this gratifying
letter. Tiely Is a sergeant in this head
