Appeal on behalf of the Christian Alliance of Women and Girls by George Cansdale
Contributions will be gratefully acknowledged and should be addressed to [address removed]
The Christian Alliance of Women and Girls works mainly through clubs, hostels, and holiday homes, and helps many women and girls physically, mentally, and spiritually. Young girls enjoy happy evenings in the clubs, and older women are also welcomed. In charge of each branch is a leader, qualified to help those in her care towards the highest ideals of Christian womanhood. Many parents are thankful that a happy ' home from home' is provided for students and business girls in the residential hostels run by the Alliance; but more hostels are needed, especially in our big cities. Holidays, too, at reasonable cost in country and seaside holiday homes bring encouragement and refreshment to many.

Production by Hugh Stewart
Irene and her son Jon being abroad, Jolyon finds life at Robin Hill lonely. June, his daughter by an earlier marriage, visits him and learns of Jon's love for Fleur, daughter of Soames. She cannot see why the young people should be made unhappy because of the past.
Jon can no longer stay away ' and returns to London to keep an appointment with Fleur at the Art Gallery. Still ignorant of the dramatic situation that exists between them because of their birth, Jon takes Fleur to his home, where Irene and Jolyon meet her.
Jolyon, failing in health, is much moved by this encounter, and thinks of telling his son about the family quarrel.
