MENTAL HOSPITAL PATIENTS AN APPEAL.
Sir,— you once*: more allow me to ; . make my annual appeal to my. fellow- ' citizens for. va supply of books, magazines, ' music, etc., for the patients, in the Mental Hospital? There are 745 patients, among' 1 whom some can appreciate the highest kind'. of literature. Of course, a very much larger if _ s number revel in ordinary magazines, while. » - others find a source of : quiet : enjoyment in . L looking at pictures. ; I am* thankful to re- 1 !'/;*-, ceive parcels or single magazines or books « - " at my office in Palmerston' Buildings. - Please remember that most of the patients - (unlike those in the general hospital) are there for long periods, and many for life. ■ . ,' Henri Wilding, • Deputy-Inspector. •
