FROM ARTHUR MOORE England, Dec. 10, 1943 Dear Friends : Just a few lines this evening to let you all know that I received the most wonderful and most welcome box that the Red Cross sent me. I want to thank you all very kindly for the lovely gifts you sent to me. I am sure all the boys from good old Castleton must feel the same as I do toward our grand, or should I say your grand organization. I don't see any of the boys from home any more. I used to see my brother real often, but I have been moved again, so don't see him now, but will see him again soon I hope. Although I am in a swell rigiment with a grand bunch of boys from all over Canada and get along fine and have some good times when we all get together, there is no place like home, as you all know. One thing certan--after this great job is all over we are all longing to get back to our loved ones and all our friends Well, friends of the Castleton Red Cross, time is drawing near and I must do my little bit at the supper table, ha! ha!. I want to thank you all again for everything. God bless you all at home. Hope to seen you all as soon as possible. If they would only turn the Canadians, who are over here, loose I don't think it would last very long. Should this reach you before Christmas, I wish you all a Very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Yours truly, Arthur Moore. C48795 Gnr. Moore, Arthur, 22 Bty, 13th Fid.

However, Veterinary- authorities say that chickens inherit this tendency, and that such deformed birds should be culled out of the breeding flock. The type of perches used also influences the tendency, it is reported. Well-rounded perches should be provided, and young birds should not be allowed to roost too early. Cheese is an important source of calcium. RATION COUPONS Consult your latest Ration Coupon Calendar at home before commencing wour weekly shopping.

Jo yvunq THothuu whose problem is caring lor a Hatty • • • NO-ONE but a mother can know the tremendous amount of work involved in satisfying the needs of an infant or a young child, for even one day. Attending a sick or injured child for a day in the Hospital for Sick Children demands stili greater effort . . . painstaking . . . patient . . . alert . . . ever-watchful. In addition, it requires the greatest possible degree of medical skill and nursing efficiency. Multiply this one-day effort by 17, which is the average number of days each Public Ward patient is treated. Then multiply by 8,200, which is the number of patients admitted to the Hospital during one year. The result is a staggering total, measuring as eloquently as cold figures can, the tremendous volume of personal effort demanded from the Hospital Staff. Despite the fact that the treatment and nursing of children requires such a high degree of proficiency from every angle, the costs of the Hospital for Sick Children are • kept at very low levels. Even so, the Provincial and Municipal grants and all other revenue are inadequate to meet the cost. Unfortunately, too, We have no large group of patients who pay high fees--400 of our 420 beds being in Public Wards. An annual deficit cannot be avoided if proper care and attention is to be given needy little ones. It is because we believe you would not want us to turn away any child, broken in health or body, that we appeal annually to the public to make up the deficit. This year, we must raise $70,000.00. We appeal to you for a donation -- as large as your circumstances permit -- 25c, $1.00, $2.00, $5.00, $10.00 -- no amount is too great . . . none too small. Why not send along your donation now? All you need is a piece of paper and an envelope. Write your name on the paper, pin cheque or banknotes to it and fold silver inside. Acknowledgment of all subscriptions, large or small, is made in the columns of The Evening Telegram. SEND YOUR DONATION TO THE APPEAL SECRETARY We do not share in the funds collected by the Toronto Federation for Community Service because we admit patients from all parts of the Province.
