(8) It was resolved tha.t a bill of £5 for printing 200 Easter cards, which were sent to the Medical Officers of the Russian Army by the Director-General and officers of the Medical Services of the British Army, should be defrayed from the Royal Army Medical Corps, Fund.

A description of the card, and a copy of a letter from Sir Alfred Keogh to the Director-General of the Russian Army, appeared in the April issue of the CORPS NEWS.

(9) The question was raised as to the future of the Compassionate School Fund, as its finances a.re now drawing to a close. The Chairman considered, and the Committee agreed, that it is a question for the Annual General Meeting to decide as to whether the General Relief Fund should be burdened by carrying on the work that has been previously done by the School Fund. The Compassionate School was started after the South African War, by a sum of money of about £1,300, which was earmarked at the request of Colonel Somerville Large for the purpose of maintaining and educating orphans of N.C.O·s. and men of the Corps who were in the South African War. It wa.s resolved that the question should be brought before the next Annual Meeting for consideration. Should it be decided tha.t the General Relief Fund shall continue the work now done by the School Fund, the further point will arise as to whether the latter fund sha.ll be closed at the eud of this year, a.nd any balance then transferred to the General Relief Fuud.
