A correspondent writes to the London Evening News, of March sth: The casualty statistics given to the public have not got beyond general totals so far, but a New Zealand medical friend gives me some interesting details...concern-ing their losses. Among a total of 55,000 casualties in the New Zealand force, including 15,000 killed, there has only been the surprisingly small number of 20 cases of blindness. The "limbless" cases also have been remarkably few in number, when it is borne in mind the loss of any portion of a limb, from a hand or foot upwards,- brings a caseunder this classification. Losses of fingers or toes do not count as limblessness, but practically everything above this does. Of such cases tho New Zealand casualties include only between 800 and 850, which works out at something under li per cent. All these men, I am told, are undergoing special educational Courses wherever their loss has made a continuance of their pre-war occupation impossible. Keep a water bottle in the homo in case of sickness. Purchase a reliable North British ' Bottle fitted with "Unique" Stopper—it won't crack or leak. Make sure of brand being on neck of bottle.
