BOOKS FOR THE DARDANELLES WOUNDED.
[To THN EDITOR or TIM "SPECTATOR." J Sta,—May I take this opportunity to thank those who very generously responded to a former letter of mine asking for books and magazines for the hospital for the Dardanelles at Alexandria? I would again appeal for the help of those who have any light literature to spare, or who would give money for its purchase, or would make the purchase themselves and forward to eie Lady Allenby, 13 Gerald Road, Chester Square, S.W. They write to inc from the hospital out there expressing great gratitudo for the books and magazines already sent, but urging the need for more, because in infectious oases it is necessary to burn all papers that the patients have handled. For this reason the cheaper the books are, in a sense, the more valuable they are. I mean that two sixpenny books have more than twice the worth of one shilling book, and the penny books aro highly appremated.—I am, Sir, dc., 67 Cadogan Square, S.W. HORACE G. HUTCHINSON.
