ROYAL ARMY MEDICAL CORPS COMFORTS FUND. SECRETARY'S REPORT OF THE WORK DONE.

AT the beginning of October, 1914, a central committee of ladies was formed, com· posed of Me,dames Babtie, Whitehead, Macphertion, Woodhouse, Rustiell, Treherne and Lady Brnce, wives of Surgeon.Generals of the Army Medical Service, with La.dy Sloggett, wife of the Director-General of the British Forces in 1!'rance, as Ohairman, and Mrs. O. K. Morgan, as l:lecretary and Manager.

The object of this Oommittee WitS the collecting, packing and forwarding of com· forts to the various medical units in Fr .. nce.

During 1915 this work was further enlarged, and bales of comforts have been sent to Gallipoli, and latterly to Salonika.

Since the Spring of 1915, parcels have been forwarded weekly to Royal Army Medical Corps men who were prisoners of war in Germany, either directly by the Comforts Fund, or by ladies who so kindly" adopted" a man for a gIven period.

Altogether 2,040 bales have been sent out from the Royal Army Medical Oollege, London, where packillg rooms were very kindJy placed at the ditiposal of the Cam. mittee. Of this number 607 bales, each weighing 11 lbs., have been sent to prisoners of war in Germany, and 1,433 bales averaging 50 lb. in weight have been forwarded overseas.

The following is a list of the principal articles despatched :-

Shirts Socks Pants and vests Oigarettes and cigarette

papers Tobacco .• Preserved meats ..

5,469 16,081 prs. 6,576

26,928 pkts. 930 lbs.

2,652 tins.

Biscuits and cakes Milk .. Ohocolate Writing paper .. Games Packs of cards .. Pipes •.

1,776 tins. 4,896 " 2,3781bs.

26,9:J8 pkts. 3,403 2,183 5,100

Also helmets, cardigans, scarves, handkerchiefs, mittens, towels, matches, jam, soup squares, tea, tins of butter and dripping, etc., etc. In addition to these articles, complete suits of uniform, clothing, great coats, caps, boots and shoes, have been sent to, and received by, the prisoners of war. -

From the numerous grateful acknowledgments, both from prisoners of war and from the officers commanding the various medical units on active service, the ladies feel that their efforts have been greatly appreciated by those whom they have endeavoured to help.

The Committee have been very greatly assisted by various ladies of the Corps who have established" depots" in Scotland, Ireland and different parts of England for the collection of comforts.

Lieutenant·Oolonel F. W. H. Davie Harris, who has very kindly acted as Treasurer for the Comforts Fund, received up to the end of December, 1915, £~,152 5s. lld., as was shown in the balance· sheet recently published in this J ourna!'

The Fund has been most generously supported by the various Royal Army Medical Corps Institutes, both at home and abroad.

'1'he ladies who have helped actively in the packing of comforts are: Lady Bruce, Mesdltmes Archer, Burtchaell, Birrel!, Brereton, Oowan, Ellis, Fell, Ffrench, Gibbard, Harding, Harrioon, Hyde, Irwin, Jenken, Lelean, Macpherson, M"her, McGrigor, Nash, l:'rofeit, Robinson, RusselI, Laureston, Scott, Treherne, Whitehead and the Misses Burnett, Bett, lVlathias, Robinson and Sloggett.

Lady Sloggett and the Oommittee wish to thank most heartily all those who have so generou,jy helped them in the past by donations, both in money and kind, a.nd they hope for a. continuance of their kind support to enable them to carry on this work.

Parcels of Comforts should be sent to the Secretary, Mrs. C. K. MORGAN,

"R.A.M.C. Comforts," Royal Army Medical College,

Grosvenor Road, London. and cheques to,

Lieutenant.Oolonel F. W. H. DAVIE HABBIS, 124, Victoria Street,
