The lNg||j soldier's parents in Waimate have figgls ceived appreciative and letters concerning him from two of J®? officers. Major Newman Wilson, the course of his letter, says: ''Th«|| loss of your gallant son, who w»Ss| killed in action in our-last turn in trenches, cast a gloom over the " company, where his brilliant leaaer-S5 ship, capable and cheerful ways for him the regard and love of all. ... In the section where lie won his ; medal, under battle conditions, he pad ' charge of rations, which had to bo carried up day after day over exposed ground, in view of tho enemy, through ■ terrific shell fire with occasional ma- - chine-gun fire. To slip off the duck- ■ boards meant going up to tho thighs in soft mud. In spite of these dti.l- - food was always delivered, and " ( Sergeant Brien personally led all Lis _ parties. It is owing to such . men that this Division has built up such glorious traditions." Lieut.-Colond H. Stewart, Commanding Second Battalion Canterbury Regimentj writes • with reference to Sergeant Bnen: "All through his military career he had shown himself a most reliable and .courageous fellow, and he was regarded by both officers and men with great liking and respect. Only a weak before'' his death he had done splendid work / ■ in managing a ration-carrying party/ , •which took rations to the firing-line, through heavy shell fire. For this and his previous gallant conduct I l.ad recommended him' for the D.C.M., pnd this wsa awarded him: too late, I re gret to say, for him to know. . . . 1\ . know that your pride in his. 'recorei will be a great consolation to you/' Mr M. J. Moriarty, of Ashburton, i has received advice that his brother,. _ ■ Sergeant J. J.

When Zam-Buk has been once used ; in a home it is always kept handy afterwards, . because the first experience : ' s proves that there is nothing to equal it for healing wounds and skin sores. • Mrs Helen Kelly, of 67 Thompson, street, Darlinghurst, Sydney, writes^"My little girl, Maggie, fell while . . playing in tho street, and gashed her . knee open'to tHe boije. "' The dirt get- : ting in caused a terrible sore, all in*,. flamed and festered, which would not , heal properly. To make matters worse, Maggie knocked the place, causing# to break out again. ' "As other remedies seemed to do ® 0 good, we were recommended .to * 1 ! 86 Zam-Buk, and after applying this.balni we noticed an improvement ahposviin* mediately. Zam-Buk was so soothjßK and mild in action; it took out inflammation, cleansed the wound. ; oj all the bad matter, and then healed it up beautifully. Only two pots of • Buk were required to completely care Maggie's leg. ' . „ .. ■,»'* "My other child, Ruby, had chickcn- ■ pox break out all over her face, wm was in an awful state. .My fa'tittfj Zam-Buk, however, induced. me *°„P , i. it on Ruby's face.
