To the Editors of the CRIMSON:
A touching appeal has been made on behalf of blind soldiers in certain French hospitals. Some of the men have found pleasure and given pleasure to others during convalescence in the use of simple musical instruments. Some have learned to play upon these instruments during this period. Some look forward to earning their living in this manner when the war is over. Appeal is made for small musical instruments of any sort for this purpose. There must be in the University many men, former members of the musical clubs or others, who have violins or flutes, mandolins, guitars, horns or other instruments, no longer in use, which they would gladly give in such a cause.
The New England Branch of the American Fund for French Wounded, 306 Boylston street, Boston, will gladly receive such instruments, make proper acknowledgment and forward to the destinations indicated by those who have made this appeal. ARCHIBALD T. DAVISON '06, EDWARD CALDWELL MOORE.
