"THE RED TRIANGLE."

Y.M.C.A. IN WAR. Air. J. J. Virgo, field secrfe'frary ol the British National Council of the I'.M.C.A., was entertained at luncheon yesterday , by tho Now Zealand Club. After tho luncheon, the president of tho club (Mr. C. C. Wheeler) said a few words bf welcomo to Mr. Virgo, and remarked that tho gathoring was of almost-record dimensions. . In the course of an address, Mr. Virgo said that lie had visited the Grand Fleet and tho firing ]ino, and had soon tho men .under war conditions, and he could say they wero behaving splendidly; and had turned out •all that wo might expect them to. The outbreak' of war opened up new possibilities for the Y.M.C.A-, and the organisation had been expanded to moot tho needs,of tho day. Tho public had subscribed about £1,000,000 for tho work. Tlio Y.M.C.A. was right up in the firing lino, and was doing great good amongst tho mon. Having been at the fronti for a few hours, and witnessed the licllishness of bombardments and war in general, ho wished never to return there, but hp could assure all that anything they could do for the men was not good enough for them. In England tho women were doing splendid work, and as to the organisation's operations among the munition workers,' Mr. Lloyd Georgo had said that it was as important as the workers themselves, • becauso of "its brightening influence. The Y.M.C.A. had got to work among the German prisoners of war. who were in England, .and tlio' 1 American side of the organisation had sent some of their best secretaries to Germany to work amongst the British prisoners, and tlio result had been con-siderably-to improve the lot of our pien who were in the hands of the , enemy. Now, too, men were coming homo from the war, and the best possible must be done for thorn.

RINGWORM AND SCAUP SORES. ZA H-BUK GETS TO THE ROOT. O F . DISEASE. In cases of : riu"worm and obstinate scalp sores, Zam-Buk bos achieved most remarkable succcss. Rubbed iiito the inflamed and iteliy patches, Zam-Buk. soaks right through the diseased tissue and kills tho parasites which qnusn the trouble. a ■ . Jliss B. Kelly, 01 Thomas Stoat, f Ultimo, Sydney,/says;—'".VVhcn about 18 years of age I suffered long and' painful disfigurement from a severe outbreak of scalp sores, Tho disease first appeared in the form of a small swelling, which itched intensely. » Tho fiory irritation made sleop impossible, for I used to lie awako at night rubbing and' scratching away at my itchy skin. "Eventually thp disease spread all over my head and developed to such a shock- . ins extent that I had to leave school, i Whilst at homo I was carefully treated I with all kinds of remedies, but six I months elapsed before the disease was 1 got under hand. 1 "Upon hearing good reports about ; Zam-Buk ,it was deoidod to try the treatment. When I saw the great improve ment that Zam-Buk effected, and how it " was gradually causing the disease to- die . away, I eagerly continued tlin treatment, j This perseverance was splendidly reward. ] Ed when Zam-Buk finally cleared away t the last traces oif my terrible disfigure t ment." t There is nothing like Zam-Bufc for i simple injuries, poisoned wounds, piles, ; eczema, ulcers, sores, barcoo Tot, ete. l Zam-Buk soothes pain and itching, draws poison and inflammation from tho tissues, and aids new healthy skin to grow.
