In Hospital. That New Zealand folk can rest assured of tho best of treatment of our boys in tho Homeland is aptly shown by the following extracts from the letter of a wounded Hokianga boy. He says:— "A fellow cannot help but get well hero —in fact, my leg is. healing too quickly for my liking, and I suppose they will be shipping me across to a convalescent home at Hornchnrch or Oakland*. . . .

Wo get (lie very best of everything hero. Tho sisters cannot do enough ; for lis. Just fancy sleeping in sheets and pyjamas, and living 011 fish, chops, steak, eggs, stout, etc., after the way we havo been 'existing' iu Franco for tho last few months lam not in a hurry to get back again now that I am here. Availing parties from London and elsewhere come three times a woek and give us concerts—very decent, too. Every day wo havo plenty of lady visitors, who bring us books, sweets, fruit, and all .sorts of luxuries. There is no mistake, New /iealauiTs sick and founded are well cared for while in hospital, and I consider a fellow that can get a wound like mine and get across hero with it is very, fortunate. It is one of the joys and pleasures of soldiering."

Mrs. Helono Cross (ChrUtchiirch) is visiting Wellington, and is staying at the Midland Uotcl. Mrs.. Cross, whoso liouk. for soldiers. "Spoken French," has been of such great service to those of our men who havo been leaving this part oi tho world tor Franco and elsewhere, has received word that tho copyright cf this book for tho United State of America has just been bought by a New York (inn. presumably, one imagines, for the. uso of tho American troops. Such news is a very effective tributo to the value of her work.
