THE WOMEN'S HOLIDAY FUND.
[To THE EDITOR OF THE " SPECTATOR."] SIR,—I venture once more to ask for your valuable support in appealing for help for the Women's Holiday Fund. We are not now assisting mere holiday-makers, but only those suffering from the nerve-racking conditions brought about by the losses and anxieties entailed by this terrible war. There seems (if we may judge by the enormous sums realized by the present sales of jewels and pictures and silver) to be plenty of money somewhere, of which a very small proportion—say fives and tens out of thousands of pounds—would save many a poor woman from a complete breakdown of nerves and health. We know that we shall not appeal in vain to your readers, who have always so generously responded in former years.—I am, Sir, 8:e., HELEN A. POWNALL.
8 Ashley Place, Westminster, S.W. 1.
P.S.—Any contributions will be gratefully acknowledged by the Secretary, 76 Denison House, Vauxhall Bridge Road, or by Mrs. Frank Pownall, 8 Ashley Place, S.W. 1.
