A CRY FROM EGYPT
MUTTON AND JAM WANTED. Writing to a friend in Christchurch',' from the camp at Zeitoun, near Cairo, an officer in the Now Zealand Expeditionary Force tays: —"If you want to make a name for yourself, niako the people of Christchurch send a shipment of mutton, jam, and butter to us. The men could eat more thaii they get— they practically keep themselves by buying from the canteen. . This is absolutely a fact. The men are as fit as the devil —plenty of fresh air and hard work. Their general bearing is good. You would not recognise them as the force you saw leaving Lyttelton."
