AN APPEAL TO RESPOND TO [To the Editor of THE
SPECTATOR.] SIR,—The members of the local branch of the British Legion
have fitted up a disused garage as a club room, the whole of the work having been done voluntarily by the men themselves.
They now require reading matter, and as the bulk of the members are unemployed they cannot afford to purchase very much.
Will you, therefore, please allow me to appeal to your readers for gifts of old books and magazines for which they have no further use ?
The only local library is one maintained by a fund to which the miners contribute, but our unemployed " legionaries " cannot use it as they are not contributors.
We will gladly refund all postage and every gift will be promptly acknowledged.—I am, Sir, &c.,
(Rev.) G. R. HAWKINS,
. Chaplain, Maesycwnuner Branch, British Legion. 15 Ashgrove, Hengoed, Glam.
