I < H IN order to assist our brave Welsh boys at the front, we have opened I a subscription list to enable our subscribers to forward to the ■ soldiers of any of the Welsh or other regiments at the front, the much H desired Cigarette and Tobacco. Every report from the seat of war states ■ the eagerness of our Tommies for a smoke, and the scarceness thereof. I We have arranged with Messrs. Rutter & Co., the oldest established I house in the Tobacco Trade, in the British Isles, (they started business ki ■ 1767) for a supply to be sent forward for us to wherever our Welsh I Regimeras are at the following scale I Every donor of 1/- sends 150 Cigarettes or 5 oz. Tobacco I 3/- 500 „ or I:lb. „ I „ 8/6 „ IOOO „ AND lib. „ I Every P.O. 6d. would sectire 75 Cigarettes for Tommy. t The Cigarettes are The British Lion," and the Tobacco the well- I known Mitcham Shag," or "Mitcham Cricket Green Mixture." I We also guarantee to send to individual men in any regiments (if I 6 desired) at same prices, but postage extra. Rates of postage up to 3 lbs., I 1 from 3 lbs. to 7 lbs., 1/4 7 lbs. to II lbs., 1/7 in this case, with I P.O., send name, name of soldier, regiment, regimental number if I possible. I I. Send along your money NOW. Tommy is doing everything for you t—saving your home—your money—your business it is a ve^y small thing to give him something to smoke in return. He risks his life for YOU. Isn't that worth a few smokes ? A Central Ns Telegram of October 25th says :— The German formula appears to have been so many hours' bombardment equals so much demoralisation of the enemy. Therefore so many battalions can clear the nerve-shattered wretches from their trenches: This is very scientific, but it doesn't square with the facts. On the contrary, the British Tommy complains about the shell fire only in so far as it gives him a headache apparently. One of the Welsh told me yesterday how for hours the heavy German guns had endeavoured to shift them from their trenches. Luckily every shell fell 30 to 50 yards behind. At about 5.20 one of his chums caught his eye and shouted Duw, Dai I When are they going to stop for tea ?" Just fancy yourself in a trench as described above-waiting for hours to charge "—and nothing to smoke. Every contribution will be thankfully received by Editor, and duly acknowledged in our columns. Please address all contributions to TOBACCO," JOURNAL OFFICE, < and state- « CARMARTHEN. i. Name and address. 2. The soldier's name, regiment, and if possible regimental number. 3. Exactly what you want sent. 4. Please write distinctly.
