The 'Benevolent Department of the British Legion states that a new scheme of assistance was com- menced during the year, in which provision was made for fatherless children whose mothers were in sanatoria or hospitals, or for the maintenance of total orphans of school age. Under this scheme it has been possible to make suitable arrangements for 306 children, and in instances where the mothers have been undergoing treatment. the welfare of their children hav ing been satisfactorily provided for has greatly assisted in their recovery, and has given peace of mind to those who are so that polisibly there is little or no chance of their ever being able to resume the care of the children themselves.
