Rifleman E. E. Trouson writes from the Third New Zealand Hospital, Oodford, England, as follows: "Could I make an appeal th cough the medium of your paper to the citizens of Chnstchurch, asking them to forward to this hospital New Zealand newspapers, weeklies for preference? Since I arrived in this rospital I have only seen two New Zealand weeklies, and they were six months old, I may say that New Zealand papers are eagerly looked/for, both in the trenches and hospitals, but I am sorry to say wo don't get them. A few days ago n patient here received a Wellington paper> and directly it became known that it Now Zealand newspaper had arrived he was bosieged by patients eager to know the latest happenings in New Zealand. There are nearly four hundred men in this hospital, and we would gladly welcome any New Zealand newspapers your renders may care to send."
