An appeal on behalf of the National Y.M.C A. War Service Fund, by the Rt. Hon. the Earl of Athlone, K.G.
The work of the Y M C.A. in the Great War will always be remembered with gratitude, and there is already a fascinating story of its activities in the present struggle where the Red Triangle is giving help and comradeship to all kinds of men on active service. Over three hundred centres are already operating. Huts are being erected as rapidly - possible, and fresh demands are being received daily. £200,000 is needed immediately.
Contributions for work in England, Wales, Ireland and Oversea, should be addressed to The Rt. Hon. the Earl of Athlone, K.G.,
[address removed], and for work in Scottand to A. J. Rose, Esq., [address removed]. All contributions will be gratefully acknowledged.

The BBC Variety Orchestra conducted by Charles Shadwell
Revised edition produced by Francis Worsley
with Brian Lawrance and the Novelty Septet
To the delight of his many admirers Fred Hartley made his debut in the wartime programmes on November 1, and now they will be even happier that Brian Lawrance is to broadcast with him again.
It was a gramophone company that sent Lawrance to Hartley just over five years ago. As vocalist to Hartley and his Novelty Quintet he gave his first broadcast, and as Hartley's vocalist he rose to stardom.
And so these two great favourites take part once more in a programme of music, even though the Novelty Septet is a different combination from Fred Hartley 's famous quintet, which was formed in 1931 and was constantly on the air until the outbreak of war.
