An appeal on behalf of Combined
Theatrical Charities by Will Fyffe
This appeal is in aid of the Variety Artists' Benevolent Fund, the Actors' Benevolent Fund, the Variety Artists' Ladies' Guild, and the Theatrical Ladies'' Guild—each of them organisations that take care of the poor and distressed stage artists and children of the profession.
Of all who are suffering as a result of the war, none has been more hardly hit than theatrical people. The calls on the charities have increased enormously, with very poor prospects of raising the necessary funds. Artists are always ready to help others, and this appeal should commend itself to every listener.
