THE ROYAL ARMY TEMPERANCE ASSOCIATION.
[TO THE EDITOR OF THE " SPECTATOR."'
SIR,—To enable the Council of the Royal Army Temperance Association to deal efficiently with the extra work thrown on the Association by the increased strength of the Army, additional funds will be required,
without which the Association cannot be adequately maintained. As Chairman of the Council, I am most anxious to carry out the wishes of the late Field-Marshal Earl Roberts, who, had he been with us to-day, would have made strenuous efforts to provide the necessary funds. As his successor, I am most anxious to carry out his wishes and to perpetuate his memory. I therefore earnestly appeal to the nation to give such financial support as shall enable the Council to go forward with the good work amongst the men who have so heroically answered their country's call. Subscriptions should be sent to Colonel L. G. Fawkes, Honorary Secretary and Treasurer, 47 Victoria Street, West- minster, S.W.—I am, Sir, &c., FRENCH, F.M., Chairman of the Council.
