From an Admiralty notice:—
"It is to be particularly noted that entries are only being made for 12 years' service, and not for duration of war."—Evening Paper.
"Summoned at Barry for having driven a horse whilst drunk, Antonio Millonas was stated to have narrowly missed a policeman and two children."—Western Mail.
We are all in favour of prohibition for horses.
IN A GOOD CAUSE.
The Newport Market Army Training School, Greencoat Place, Westminster, which has for over fifty years been training homeless and destitute boys to become soldiers of the King, and has sent over two thousand into the Army, is in great need of funds. Mr. Punch cordially supports the appeal of the President of the School, H.R.H. the Duke of Connaught, who "sincerely hopes the public will generously support an Institution that has for so many years quietly and unobtrusively furnished a Christian home and education to poor and outcast lads, and has supplied the Army with so many good and gallant soldiers."
Donations and inquiries should be addressed to the Secretary, the Rev. H.A. Wilson, 20, Great Peter Street, Westminster, S.W.1.
