Any assistance that can bo given to these lyiosion rooms is war help of the fiMHt kind, because generally they are the only available home for shelter and first aid for the unfortunate .sailors who reach our shores in a destitute condition. Both sailors and the crows of the drifters and trawler?, whosoships have been sunk by the Hun, find in them their natural refuge.
