The collecting list and $41.65 for
Over-Seas League Tobacco
J.nd was sent off today to New
York headquarters. The money is
expected to buy from 8,000 to
10,000 cigarettes for the Over-
Seas soldiers and sailors. The
money was raised entirely by
volunteered contributions from
persons who brought the donations
to the Bulletin office or handed
them to the Curb Reporter on
the street. There was no solici
tation. There was no quota set,
although some friends who had
given to the same cause before
expected at least SSO to be raised.
This could have been done if the
list had been taken around and
people button-holed, but the Curb
Reporter wouldn’t do that. Only
those who wanted to give comfort
to the British Over-Seas soldiers
■amd sailors are listed. Some of
V doners are even opposed to
-Smoking personally, but are glad
to do anything to help the men
fighting over-seas.
Those donating to this fund
were listed as follows: Mrs. E.
G. Dailey, Miss Susan Harper,
Julian B. Hester, Bill Parker. C.
