CORRESPONDENCE. We do not hold ourselves responsible fot thp opinions of our correspondents. THE NATIONAL EGG COLLECTION FOR THE WOUNDED. To the Editor. Dear Sir,— There is a very great scarcity of eggs in the country at the present moment and those who are feeling the shortage most severely are the wounded soldiers in our hospitals. It will not unfor- tunately be within the power of every- body to help these brave fellows by contributing eggs, but even the poorest may do a little under our" New Poster Stamp scheme to help. We have just issued for sale at our thirteen hundred depots throughout the country an attractive little Poster Stamp 2t inches by ld. inches and comprising a design of an egg with a Red Cross on it. We are asking for these stamps the trifling sum of one penny each and we are prepared to sell them in any quantities, however small or however large, to people anxious to help in the good work we are trying to accomplish. We have succeeded in sending al- together over Thirteen Millions of Eggs to wounded soldiers in British Hospi- tals in France and at home and the purchase of a book of twenty-four of these stamps will enable us to send a dozen eggs, or thereabouts, to a wounded soldier. You have given us splendid help in the past, may we once again appeal to your sympathies to the extent of per- suading you to ask your readers to pur- chase these stamps either at our collec- ting centres or direct from our Hon. Treasurer, fylr Horace G. Holmes, J.P., 154, Fleet Street, London, E.C. Yours faithfully, R. J. DARTNALL, Hon. Sec. CHRISTMAS ENTERTAINMENT FOR WELSH SOLDIERS. To the Editor. Sir,—It is suggested that a Christmas Entertainment be given to the Men of the 68th Welsh Division who are billeted in Bedford, to consist of a good evening meal of roast beef and plum pudding, and a concert or other enter- tainment afterwards. Last Christmas 14,000 Scottish Troops were similarly treated, and nearly all the necessary money (over £ 1,000) was generously given by the people of Scotland. It is thought that Welshmen will be pleased to follow this example, and so provide a link with, home that will warm the hearts of the Welsh Boys here at Christmastide. Will you kindly further the matter by making an appeal for the Fund in your district ? This Committee has felt it a duty, as it has been a pleasure to provide recre- ation of all kinds for Welsh Troops since May last, but, as we are only a small community, this extra entertain- ment is beyond our resources.. On behalf of the Bedford Borough Recreation Committee for the Troops, F. R. HOCKLIFPE, Mayor HENRY TEBBS, Chairman WM. MACHIN, Hon. Secretary. P.S.—" I approve this kind thought." R. B. MAINWARING, 1 Brigadier-General, Commanding 68th (Welsh) Division.
