London only:

Appeal on behalf of the Metropolitan Hospital Sunday Fund by Mr. R. HOLLAND-MARTIN , Vice-President

The Metropolitan Hospital Sunday Fund was founded fifty-six years ago. In 1886 the amount received from congregations was more than £35,000; last year, although London's population has vastly increased and although five hundred more congregations made collections. no larger a sum was achieved. The reason is obvious. Forty years ago the week-end habit was scarcely known ; today, the Sunday exodus carries thousands into the country. Fortunate folk are these, but they should not forget, in the luxury of the health their week-ends bring them, those who-not from London only, but from all over England-come to the London hospitals in search of health.
