POST-WAR COMRADESHIP

SIR,—The comradeship of the Forces is one of the few good things that grew out of the conditions of war, and it will be one of the first to be missed by Service people coming back into civil life. Many returning men and women feel unfamiliar and unfriended in the relatively impersonal society to which the civilian becomes conditioned by use. If they, too, become conditioned to it something of real value to them and to us all will have been lost and may not be easily recovered.

Some now returning from the Forces will wish to see whether life at home may not be lived on the same generous terms of co-operation, sharing and mutual service. To all such who will wish to make contact with others like-minded and to benefit by their practical experience, the Community Post-War Advisory Group offers its assistance freely. It is a voluntary, non-political and non-sectarian body at the service of all men and women who have served in any capacity during the war, at home or abroad, and who wish to explore the possibilities of continuing association in work or in leisure activities. Enquiries should be sent to Hon. Sec., Chancton, Dartnell Park, West Byfieet, Surrey.—Yours, &c.,

GEORGE F. MACLEOD,

NORMAN MOTLEY.
