Books for Soldiers
From London comes the news that the Red Cross hospital library is organising the supply of books and magazines to the British Army. In the last war, millions of books were sent as far afield as Egypt, Mesopotamia, Salonika, and Gallipoli. Whole libraries were handed over, and publishers contributed. liberally from their stocks. The generosity of the people is already being tapped again, both in England and in New Zealand. No doubt it will show itself as inexhaustible as ever. You have the chance to prove it. Label your parcel " Library Service, Military Camps"; take it to your Public Library or send it to the Country Library Service, Parliament Buildings, Wellington.
