Donations are asked for, in tho form of socks, balaclavas, mufflers, shirts, or other oomforts, for the box to be sent as soon as filled to the hospital in Egypt. Articles and material are also solicited for the Belgian * Relief, and the Highlands of • Scotland boxes. The Ladies' Committee gratefully acknowledges tho following donations: —Mrs Sheridan, socks and balaclavas; Miss Suche (Oam-mi), infants' clothing; Mrs Nesbit (Archcrfiold), lx)x of clothing; Mrs Speight, boys' clothing for Highland box;, Mrs Webster, soldiers' shirts; Mrs Carvalho, box; several anonymous parcel?, Well-wisher, £1; Mr C.
