Tchaikovsky said that he had composed his Serenade for strings ' from inner compulsion.' ' I felt it,' he added, ' and therefore venture to hope that it docs not lack artistic quality.' It was performed for the first time in St. Petersburg, and the success it achieved there was repeated in Moscow. In 1888 Tchaikovsky chose the Serenade and the Variations from the Suite in G as the two works with which to introduce himself to the London public at a Philharmonic concert in St. James's Hall. Conducted well,' he wrote afterwards; ' the Serenade was a great success, the Suite not so great.' The audience recalled him three times, which he thought was ' a good deal from the reserved London public.' Harold Rutland

The Ex-Services Welfare Society was founded in 1919 for aU ranks of all branches of H.M. Forces, including the Merchant Navy, suffering from war psychoses and neuroses. It is a specialist organisation and the only one in this sphere of welfare work exclusively devoted to ex-Service men and women.
The Society supplements the work of the State on behalf of more than 27,000 ex-Service men and women in mental hospitals, more than 70,000 others drawing neuroses pensions, and many more thousands of sufferers resident throughout the United Kingdom.
The organisation operates through a central office in London and a branch
Scottish office in Glasgow. It has access to consultant psychiatrists in every county and receives cases recommended by welfare organisations throughout the country. It maintains its own curative home and a large industrial centre where patients unable to face competitive life may work under sheltered conditions. Every mental hospital is visited each year and every ex-Service patient in hospital receives a present and card at Christmas.
The Society requires £ 60,000 a year to meet the calls made on its services.
