But as long as i didn't get a direct

boys In the holes further on along the
line will not agree that had a corner
on the smoke market, for they all had
their share Of The SUN fund tobacco and

The popular singer Michael ]. Fitz-

Interesting and successful. There are no

Corporal Abraham Helgesen OF the

many. wrote q strong letter of thanks to
fund donor on March 1s In which he
depicts the state of being tobaccoless
which he and has comrades would suffer
without the gifts sent over by THE SUN
fund. I'VE cannot get anything At to
smoke here and I truly believe that
tobacco 10 more necessary now than It
was at any time during the fighting
For n time we tried to do without 10,
for II seemed we would have to school
ourselves, then some time ago along came
some Sun smokes and our resolutions
of cutting Off smoking vanished far and
fast A second helping has arrived since
then and as II seems that our good
friends who support the fund back home
are aware OF our needs and mean to
supply them why. oh why shouldn't we
smoke. Az long as THE Sun Tobacco
Fund and its donors keep UP the good
work. and believe me It Is a good work.
we will continue to get comfort and
freedom from care from smokes. Thank
you more than we can put into words"
