Mrs. M. Cf. Olson, chairman of the

Christmas cartoifs for soldiers abroad,

the office of the postmaster general
at Washington, D. C.:
"In view of this approaching holi
day season, it has been decided to ac
cept packages up to and including
November »0, without the need for
an individual or special export' 11-'
cense, when the senders make state
ment that the articles to be trans
mitted are not in the nature of a
commercial transaction, out' are ar
ticles sent as gifts because of the holi
day season and the packages are ad
dressed to members of the Allied

The Bismarck committee of the
Fatherless Children of France, of
which Mrs. N. O. Ramstad is chair
man, and Mrs. R. Worth Lurry, sec
retary, is asking the Capital city to
adopt 400 fatherless French children
and to supply the funds which will
assure a mother's care-for those tots
in their own. home. The amount re
quired for each child is ten cents
per gay or $36.50 per annum, and,
while the campaign has been con
ducted along conservative lines, Bis
marck already has adopted almost
100 French kiddies, subscribing for
their care more, than $3,600.
Because it is'so typical of the re
sponses which the committee is re
ceiving and for the reason that it so
well expresses the sentiment which is
behind the movement, the committee
has offered for publication a letter
from George Wv. (Little, written on
Victory day:
Your appeal' for the little orphans
and those left fatherless by the war
came In this afternoon's, mail, and
as I read it in bed (am down with
slightly congested lungs—possibly a
light attack of the flu), I felt that
on this day of 'victoiy, peace and
thanksgiving, it should have but on*
answer—a "Victory adaption '-from us
who correispond(Ingly have suffered
so little and hay# so much to be'
thankful for, I fem. enclosing check
(36.50) for one-half of amount re
quired to keep a child two years."
The committee has received so
much encouragement, that it is con
fident the city's goal of 400 fathers
and mothers for fatherless French
kiddies will be reached.

Clara Dale were-tolled to Northwood
