There were so many donations and kindly services rendered to the Red Cross during the fete time that it has been quite impossible for the League to acknowledge them all, although it is grateful to each contributor. However, the arranging for an orchestra by Mr S. Riley, who has been confined to his room for some time, is one of those thoughtful actions that it is impossible to overlook.

The music items supplied, under the leadership of Mr Scott, was highly appreciated by those visiting the T.M.S. and Marble Bar last Saturday afternoon.
