Punctually at 7.30 the members and their guests moved into the' dining-hall and took their seats to an excellent and well-served dinner. The Oorps Band, under the conductorship of Band-Serjeant G. T. Smith, gave an excellent rendering of a very enjoyable programme. After the toast to the" King" had been duly honoured, the Chairman read out letters from Sir Alfred Keogh, Sir Francis Trevor, Surgeon-General Babtie, and Colonel Horrocks, expressing regret that for various reasons they were unable to .be present. The President of Committee, Serjeant-Major Roberts, rose to propose the health of http://militaryhealth.bmj.com/ the Chairman in the following terms:- Mr. Chairman and .Gentlemen, a very pleasant duty falls to my lot, and that is. to propose the toast of "Health and Prosperity to Sir Launcelotte Gubbins." I am sure that you are all convinced of the sincere interest he takes in the welfare of our Corps and all its members. This is the third occasion on which he has presided at our annual function; in fact, he is the only Ohairman we have had up to date. I trust, we all trust, that he will enjoy the best of health in the future. At our last dinner, you will remember, we were privileged to hear a few remarks concerning the future career of the Cooking Section of the Oorps. Sanitation was also touched upon. The amendments foreshadowed' by Sir Launcelotte Gubbins, and subsequently pub lished, have been greatly appreciated by everyone in the Corps. Perhaps when spe!\k ing to-night he may touch upon one of the other Sections, and I am sure we shall all listen most attentively, and commit his remarks to our memory. Gentlemen, I will now ask you to rise and drink to the health of our Chairman. on October 1, 2021 by guest. Protected Sir LaunGelotte Gubbins, in rising to respond, said there was one correction in the preceding speech that he would like to make, and that was, that he had presided at four dinners and not three; he did not like to lose the credit of even one dinner. He sketched the various events of national importance that had taken place since their last meeting, which had all more or less a bearing on the welfare and movements of the Corps. He recalled with genuine sorrow the loss they had recently sustained in the death of Mr. Robertson, their respected and gifted Bandmaster, and he was sure that their entire sympathy went out to his widow and family in their bereavement.

The former with thirty-seven years' service to his credit performed work in the Army Medical Stores during the South African War which he could only' characterize as "stupendolls." He also welcomed to the commissioned ranks Lieu tenants Spencer and Cooper_ Mr. Spencer had long been associated with him at various times at the War Office and he could not speak too highly of his services in the past. They had hoped to have the pleasure that evening of Sir Francis Trevor's com pany whom they all welcomed home from India on the termination of his appointment· of PrinCipal Medical Officer of His Majesty's Forces, where, assisted by those able officers, Lieutenant-Colonel Aldridge and Colonel Firth, he had performed work in the maintenance and in;Iprovement of the health of the Army in that dependency which would long remain on record. He was sure they were glad to note that at the instance of Lord Hardinge, Surgeon-General Trevor and Lieutenant-Colonel Aldridge had received for· the first time in the history of the British Medical Service the Insignia of the Star of India and it was a fitting climax to a memorable term of office. He was glad to see that recent innovations, such as physical training and musketry for the recruits of the Royal Army Medical Oorps, were already bearing fruit and although this entailed an extension of the course at Aldershot by a couple of months it was time well spent, It was also satisfactory to learn that the small changes in uniform that had recently been sanctioned, and which cost practically nothing, were appreciated by all ranks. In the world of sport it was a pleasure to record that both officers and men were holding their own all over the world; whether it was in rowing, steeplechasing, rifle shooting, or football, they had a very good record indeed. He always perused that little appendix to the Journal called" Oorps News" with great interest, it was good to know of the doings of all ran.ks throughout the world. In conclusion, he desired to express his satisfaction at the continued success of the Club, and regretted that owing to the Ooal Strike and the consequent abolition of railway facilities, the attendance that evening had not reached the record which other wise it would have been. He begged to thank them very sincerely not only for a very by copyright. pleasant evening, but for the kind manner in which they received the toast of his health. . . Later on in the evening, Mr. G.W. S. Bush proposed the health of "The Guests." . It is my privilege, he said, to propose the next toast, "Our Guests." This toast requires no speech as its very name is sufficient to ensure it a hearty reception. We have amongst us a goodly array of distinguished Officers of the Oorps who have come here this evening. to unite with us in the grand design of being happy and com municatinghappiness. On your behalf I tender to them a most hearty welcome, we trust they have been happy, and. can assure them that by their presence amongst us they have communicated happiness. I will couple with this toast the name of Oolonel O. E. Harrison. http://militaryhealth.bmj.com/ Gentlemen, I ask you to raise your glasses to the health of "Our Guests.

The Naval and Military Emigration League is in pressing need of funds, to carry on its Imperial and Philanthropic Work. The Patron of the League is Field-Marshal H.RH. The Duke of Oonnaught aud Strathearn, R.G., K.T., K.P., &c., who is also President of its Oanadian Branch. J R Army Med Corps: first published as 10.1136/jramc-18-05-18 on 1 May 1912. Downloaded from 142 The President of the League is Field-Marshal The Right Honourable Earl Roberts, : V.C., K.G., &c. The main objects of the League are to find openings in His Majesty's Dominions Overseas for ex-service men, and to advance, by way of a loan, the amount necessary for their emigration, arrangements for the repayment of which are made through the Oversea Representatives of· the League. The men to whom such advances are made must be of good character and physique, must show aptitude for Colonial life, and must be unable tB obtain permanent employment at home. The conqition of many of these men at present is deplorable, and to help them to . make a new start in life is an urgent public duty. Already a large number of men, through the advice and assistance which the League has been able to render, have emigrated to Canada, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa to their own advantage and to that of the countries to which they have gone. The work which has thus been done by the League has gained the appre ciation of the Gov,ernments of the Dominions and other Oversea Authorities, who are· affording special facilities to·those who emigrate under its auspices. To continue this work and to meet the demands of the hundreds of applicants who are seeking the aid of the League, generous support is imperatively required. An appeal for financial help is, therefore, made to all who' are interested in the welfare of our ex-soldiers and ex-sailors, and who desire to encourage men of British blood to settle in His Majesty's Dominions, in preference to foreign countries. In .making this appeal the League desires it to be understood that it does not advocate indiscriminate emigration and only advises it in the case of men who are unable to find suitable employment at home.
