Men havo spoken to mo again and again of the tender caTO;shown them by air on the staff during! the time of, suffering. It would be impossible to mention all by name' who showed such devoted attention, but I feel sure you will allowuie to say that the men will never fail to remembor the kiidness of Mrs. M. A. Williams (who lent the building), the doctors/the donors of dainties, tho sisters, the nurses, the orderlies, the Scout boys (who were splendid), the ambulance men, and all who worked to the end of doing unto others as they would be done by. , Our building is now in tho hands ot the Public Works Department, and will soon be as bright, (loan, and beautiful as aforetime, wlien services and concerts' will be renewed.
