"MAIL" TOBACCO FUND EVERY Cd. WILL GLADDEN THE HEART 01 : A HERO. He will Remember You, because your Name will be Written on Every Parcel You Pay For. 30 Cigarettes. 2 Oz. Tobacco. I gallant British soldier or sailor by contributing Sixpence to the "Evening Mail" Cigarette and Tobacco Fund. This popular scheme for supplying our defenders with free smoking material is meeting with the appreciation it deserves both here and at the front. A pleasing feature of the scheme is that it places those wh-_ give and those who receive into communication with one another. The name and address of the donor is attached to the packet, so that Tommy Atkins knows exactly who has befriended him. And he does not forget ;he sends his thanks. Notes of appreciation are being received every day by English donors— notes written amid the roaring of big guns, the screeching of shells, the z-zip-zip-ing of leaden messengers of death. Our soldiers are giving their lives; you are asked to give them something to smoke. It isn't much to you, but it is a great deal to Tommy Atkins, without tobacco or "fags" on the battlefield. This sending out of smoking material is a solemn duty. The empty pipe is bad enough anywhere, a_s every smoker knows, but at the front it is a tragedy. Our soldiers are inveterate smokers. They love the weed as they love thencountry. We hear of wounded men begging for a cigarette when placed on the operating table. We hear of a solitary "fag" or a pipe passed round among a dozen soldiers. We read about Tommv smoking tea leaves. The"* French people have been very generous to Tommy Atkins in regard to "smckes," but Tommy Atkins dislikes their cigarettes. He says they have no "bite" in them. He longs for a British smoke. We ask you to help us to see that he gets it by sending just as many sixpences as von can. The dest-nation of your parcels is left entirely to yourself. They can be sent to any regiment at the Front, to any battleship, or they can be addressed to any individual soldier or sailor.

"MAIL" TOBACCO FUND I have pleasure in sending herewith a contribution of to supply packets of Tobacco and Cigarettes to our Soldiers and Sailors. Name Address Donors can, if they wish, select any Soldier or Sailor as the recipient of their packets. If this is desired write address here : ■.
