Since‘you left I have been made chairman of a new orâ€" #anization called the Children‘s Overseas Reception Board. We have been working from 9 in the mornâ€" ing till 10 or even midnight most nights and we have had applicaâ€" tions in respect of 200,000 children anxious to take advantage of the magnificent offers from families in the Dominion and America to reâ€" ceive them and maintain them for the duration of the war. I must say the American people are a most astonishingly warmhearted race. It is very touching to think that they are so interested in our problems that they will take our children and relieve our anxiety in that respect. | REPAIRED TRAVELERS SEEKING & every Sunday o‘clock. .
