success in his military life. This is
the third year our Chapter has takes
up time extremely useful wort and
many people have availed themselves
of this opportunity.
Our Uhapter has &leo been able to

given us • great, deal of pleasure wad
taw sending ot • box to • tioderich

who had been seriously wounded at
Uourcellette, and also to our prisoner

received a letter Trow one of our pris-
oner, of war in acknowledgment of
his box. We have handed this letter
to the local prose to publish, in order
to show that the prisoners really do
receive the gifts we send them through
the Had Crow Society. 1t 1. very sate
