Progress. ; ' Now Tork. Showers of cigarettes fell from tho skies on the American fighters driving the Germans out of tho St. Mihlol salient. This fact was announced In a cablegram received by William J. Mulligan, chairman of the iwngnts or uotumnus committee, on war activities, at the United War Work Campaign headquarters. From American airplanes 20,000 packages of cigarettes were dropped into tho hands of Infantrymen and artillerymen press ing forward In their victorlpus squeeze which dislodged the enemy from the stronghold they bad held for more than three years. Each package was stamped "Compliments of the Knights of Columbus. At the same time, cable dispatches announce, Y. M. C. A. workers on foot moved among the soldiers, handing out chocolates and cigarettes. The airplane service for distributing-, cigarettes to the' soldiers, while the battle was in progress and tho ordi nary foot or motor methods of reach ing the men In the front lines wore, unavailable, was established by Mar tin V. Merle of San Francisco, a K, of C. secretary, with the co-operation of an American airplane unit. After the light, soldiers related bow pleas antly surprised they hud been when cigarettes dropped from on high. They declared no service in their behalf ever laid pleased them as much as tlds ul tra modern delivery of "smokes." The X. SI. C. A. workers won new friends at St. Mlhlel. One Red Tri angle man, with a huge puck on hts buck, moved forward with a certuln unit, distributing chocolates and ciga rettes to each soldier. Salvation Army workers also were busy with their doughnuts and coffee throughout the St. Mildel drive. X UUULU WUl MbAU, bU I ' HE S THEREWITH RIFLE Camp SlierUInn, Montffompry, Aln.
