TRK TBI DAILY MAIL." Sib, -On Saturday afternoon I had an interesting and unexpected psychological experience. Being saturated with war news, war talk, and war thoughts, I dropped into a picture palace with the object of switching the train of my mind on to a new line of thought, and thus give my mental machinery a rest. Vain endeavour I The show had not yet commenced, and I found myself practically alone (as far as grown-ups wore concernod) among a theatre full of children of both sexes (junior mixed), ranging from five to 15 years of age. Pandemonium reigned supreme! My thoughts were absolutely switched off everything. The din was terrific, and the discord painfully apparent, but after a few minutes had elapsed, and one got somewhat used to it and partially immune, there evolved from the babel of infant trebles (this being probably assisted by the glorious vision of serried ranks of beautiful, happy, laughing, shrieking children, clothed like the flowers of a delightui garden in all th colours of a variegated rainbow) a somewhat harmonious and soothing discord, which, after the first slidos, showing the pictures of the I of Wales, the King, and wjy celebrities had been shown, developed into a delightful oxpericnce when tho children sang God Bless the Prince of Wales'' and God Save the Ihis experience developed into perfect harmony, when, as if guided by the baton of a conductor, there came in perfect unison from over a thousand little throats It's a long, long way to Tipperary ar.u Rule Britannia." And the lumps came into my own throat, as I thought of the fathers of children like these, or brothers, who from the free soil of Britain were marching through the fair fields of France to fight and maybe die in the trenches in the cause of civilisation, liberty, and justioe, and singing, as we read they did "It's a long, long way to Tippcrary." A TERRIBLE NIGHTMARE.

And I thought of this terrible nightmare of militarism and Kruppiam and the titanic strugglo which these same fathers and brothers were engaged in, of those who were giving their lives Cr sh make it impossible that these little boys who were singing this song should ever f' under conditions like this, or that these lttle S' rls should grievo and die of broken hearts for the maimed and slaughtered loved ones in the days that are to come. And I said here is a duty which lies nearest to al those who are able to do it, to see to it that these little boys and girls shall have bread, butter, and boots, that the women who are left behind, eir hnsbands and brothers (our conscripts as Carlvle would have said), upon whom the Tot has fallen are fighting our battles for us, shall not it su ercrs on that account, but that we too otir making their lot brighter and happier during the weary days of waiting that have yet to come. Mak ng the lot of dependents lighter will make the soldier heart lighter, and light hearts will win our battles. Heavy hearts require more carrying than heavy is here, therefore, that we can help. Those thoughts naturoily led me to the jund for the rel e'f of local distress, and as I had been selling tickets for mat-'nees in aid of the iund, it occurred to me that I should write this lethv which, knowing the interest you take the matter.

I knew you would gladly publish. It will interest your readers who wish to help to know that Miss Sybil Walsh, supported bv local amateurs, will give two matinees, "Merely Mary Ann," on October 3rd and Bth in a of the furo. Air Morton, of the Alexandra Theatre, kindly givey tho theatre free for the first performance, our printing is being done gratis or most of it, meeting rooms of committees free, badges for being made free of cost, and hundreds of people working hard to ensure that a good addition is made to the am.

Boulevard, Hull, September 28th, 1914. BRITISH TRADE CHANCES IN DENMARK. THI EDITOR OF THE DAILY MAIL." manufacturers and. traders. I am afraid, are not realising the importance of the chances now offered to them in Denmark, not merely during the oontinuance of the war, but also after the war.

German manufacturers and merchants are really under extreme difficulties with regard to the supply of their Danish customers during the war. Exports via the ports of Hamburg and Bremen are stopped, the German Baltic ports are mostly dosed by mines, and the rail connection with the Jutland frontier suffers from want of goods waggons, the German waggons being in use for military purposes and the Danish State Railways naturally being disinclined at present to send their waggons into Germany. The German tirms, who have for many years been the chief purveyors of imjiorted goods in Denmark, are now an enormous disadvantage, even as compare with English houses, and I can imagine no more obvious and urgent piece of enterprise upou the part of English firms than the instant despatch of agents to Copenhagen. I'nere might follow upon this the formation of a British Commercial Bureau, to whom all British manufacturers, merchants, could apply or information upon all points affecting their interests, and where samples of British goods could be exhibited. I would, however, remind manufacturers and merchants of this country that Denmark is but a small country with little more than three millions of inhabitants.

Danish taste, of course, must be studied, and questions as to credit, customs, as to c.i.f. and f.0.b., the prevalence ot the metric system, and the practice of quotation in kroner must also be constantly kept in mind. The supplanting of the Germans, I need not say. will not be an oasy task, for Germany possesses powerful financial influence in Denmark both with leading manufacturing and merchandising houses, together with etc. Indeed, it is conceivable, that even when professing to desire to advance English interests, certain Danish houses may do so only as a mask for the better protection of German interests.

But by inquirv, discretion, and persistence ad difficulties may be overcome, and the basis of a really substantial and satisfactory trade solidly laid. Among the articles that could be exported to Denmark are the goods, ironmongery, motor-cars, motor cycles, cycles, sewing machines, prints and stationery, toys, textiles, woollen and linen goods, colonial goods, pottery, chemical and pharmaceutical articles, petrol, scientific instruments, engines, etc. I am, Sir, W.

TO THiS EDITOB OT THE DAILY Uklt SlB. it not be arranged that the widows of North-Eastern Railway employes should receive at least part of the pension paid to their husbands. It might easily be managed by them paying Id or 2d per week extra to pension fund.

I have spoken to several of the widows, who say that when their husband died the pension was stopped, which is very hard. They are too old to work, and it does not seem fair or just, and it should bo the same with all pensioners, and it is of great importance just now, when so many of their men have gone to the am, Sir.

Sept. 28th, 1914- HULL FAIR AND SHOWMEN. 'TO THE EDITOB OF THE DAILY MAIL." reference the letters dealing frith the Hull Fair, I would ask: Is it realised that the showmen have their living to earn, and much they depend on the Fair? It is said the Fair should olose at 7 p.m. What use is that? Have the workpeople to stop from work all day in order to see the Fair? It is not compulsory for the Fair to be illuminated as it always is. Could not some alteration be made in the lighting up? Some of the more fortunate class of people sav it is not right we should be enjoying ourselves whilst our soldiers and sailors are in so much they wish us to go about with long faces.

No; therefore, let us keep the September 19X4. A LANDLADY'S GRIEVANCE. THt EDITOR THE DAILY MAIL."

"TOMMIES" SONGS IN CAMP. TO THE EDITOR Of THE DAILY MAIL." Sib, your Late City Edition of last Friday's Mail I noticed with a certain amount of pleasure and surprise that the "Tommies" in camp are singing a tong entitled There was a little sparrow," which I wrote and compos'dd in lE'32 for Mr Arthur Roberts. Of course, the words "Rule Britannia," must be an addition of their own, but the 6ong, in spite of its nonsensical chorus, was very popular in the early "eighties," and I used to sing it at the annual sergeants' mess dinner, held in Londebboroug -street Barracks at that time, which may account for the "Tommies" being so fond of it now, some of them, perhaps, having remembered me singing it, and it so, I hope and trust the 7 will live to sing it for many years to am, Sir, THOS.

WORKING MAN AND BELGIAN BOY. TO THE EDITOR OF 'HE 'DAILY MAIL." Sir, Yorkshire riverman came to me to see it I couUj get him a Belgian orphan boy, over 12 years of ago, to bring up as his own, and mako him a thorough riverman. He has five children of his own, and he wishes to do something in return for what the Belgians have done in their efforts in Europe against Germany's oppression and tyranny in Europe. It is a big thing for a working mail to undertake, but I feel sure that he can and will do it if a suitable boy is offered to him.

HEWSON. September 28th, 1914. A SUGGESTION TO LADY TEACHERS. tr TUP ED'TOR OP THE DAILY MAIL." Sir, the medium of your widelyread paper may I be permitted to offer a suggestion to the iady teachers and others who travel to and from their duties in our local trains. Instead of the usual fancy work (which might be laid aside during the prese.it crisis) it would bo better to employ the time in the trains in knit ting socks, for our soldiers at the front who have gone to defend our country and our homes.

It will be good to know that we all are doing what wo can. The great need is my apology for offering this am, Sir, A HELPER. HESSLE ATHLETIC DAIRYCOATES INSTITUTE. Played on Pickering Park. Hessle lost the toss, and commenced operations in the homesters half, but were repulsed with ponderous kicking Daddy, and from one of these the Stutes got a grand goal, alter smart combination.

This aroused Hcssle, and play was confined to the Dairyeoates goalmouth, where a penalty was awarded HessJe. Smallwood took the kick, but shot at the goalie and Johnson coming up, 6martly planted the goal through. On equal terms, some good foot bail was indulged in, and Adcock and Prissiek both tried at goal with no effect. Fine defens.ve play by Thrustk- end Richmond sent the ball to Piatt, who, when gong strong, was fouled in the penalty area. Collinson was entrusted with the kick, and made ro mistake.

Play was all in favour of Hessle this half, and, backed up by the wind, Collinson popped No. after good cofn.bination Hessle forced two comers after this, Collinson planting them well in Thrustle ob'iged with heading them both through.

(FROM A CORRESPONDENT.) Services were held all day on Sunday at the Salvation Army Icehouse Citadel, Anlaby-road, conducted by Envoy Rosie Bannister (Burnley), who during her life-time has been before the magistrates 74 times and got through £2,000 in a few months. At the afternoon service, at three o'clock, tne chair was taken by Mrs Richardson; her husband was also on the platform with several other ladies. Mrs Richardson, in the course of her remarks, before introducing Rosie Bannister, pleaded with the congregation, especially fathers and mothers who had young girls, to look well after them during the crisis we were passing and use their influence in every way possible to keep them in the straight path. They should see they came home at a respectable time. She also said how pleased 6he was to be present that aternoon to help in the great work which the Army were doing in uplifting fallen women and young girls, and thought what a fine example they had got in Rosie Bannister's life story of what God had done for her.

Rosie Bannister, in a very touching address, told part of her life etorv from being a how she was diragged up in a drunken home and taught to drink by her father and mother. Her mother used to say: "Sup, my child." "But," she added, my father never thought what that sup' meant to me. It was my downfall. My mother had been brought up with a good, Christian mother. She became a drunkard, but before she died she called her children round the bedside and said What a mistake I have made.

I've nevei told my children about Jesus. Try to be She had let her opportunities pass by" Uo not let your opportunities, the speaker continued, pass by. After being taken before the magistrates and sentenced to ten days, I often thought of mv mother's dying 'My child, try to be good I was in prison, and when my time was nearly up the warder said to me: 'Bannister, you'll be going out But I said: 'I'll never come back There was one thing my mother always taught her wash, and I used to get some very good places. The great mystery of my life was when I was 24 years of age. I wis about to oommit a dark deed.

I thought to end my life and commit suicide, but I was picked up off the street, and aken to the Workhouse, and then to an asylum in Lancashire. It was there where I found Jesus. I heard a believeth in Him I heard this voice again and again but do you iee what this great Power was to me? After months I came out of that asylum a changed woman. The next best thing 1 I did was to follow the band of the Army, and I got converted, for the past 25 years I have been up and down the country telling the tale of my past life, and praising God for the great change he nas brought about in my life. He has done for me He can do for you." At the close of the service Adjutant moved a hearty vote of thanke to Mrs Richardson and her husband and friends for kindly coming amongst them.

COTTINGHAM TERRITORIAL MARRIED. A quiet wedding took place at St. Mary's Church, Cottingham, on Monday afternon, when Miss Jennio Sanderson, daughter of Mr John Sanderson, a rptired gardener, of Cottingham. was married to Mr Percy Riseam, a gunner in the Royal Garrison Artillery (Territorial Foroe), stationed at Paull, and son. of Mr Riseam, watchmaker, of Cottingham.

Miss Winnie Richardeon and Miss Maud Richardson were the bridesmaids. Mr C. F. the best man. The bride's brother, -Mr Kichard Sanderson, gave her away.

The Rev H. Norrnan Lowndes (Rector of Cottingham) was the officiating clergyman. A BOON FOR THE SOLDIER. Military Mints in 3d and 6d tins. Owing to numerous requests for a milder flavour, these mints are now being packed in two different strengths, mild and extra strong Ask your shopkeeper for a tin and eend one to your Comedy at the Grand Theatre.

Before the Footlights. Oh. oh, Delphine" paid a return visit to the Grand last evening, and was received with the clct favour. By this time everything which bears the hall mark of Robert Courtneidge is known to be produced with extreme brightness, and the comedy indeed is brilliant from beginning to end. The spectator seeing it for the first time soon perceives the marks of French origin, and the basis is the u6ual one of the mixing up of wives.

Delphine is the wife of an artist, and marries a terrible specimen of the bourgeois, Buchotte by najne. To get even, the artist marries Madame Buchotte. Then we have Colonel Pomponnet the leading wife kidnapper in the district, and so on, but the plot is of no account. It is si.np'v a series of the most extravagant complications a clever French brain can imagine. There are three gorgeously put up scenes, each supplied by a different scenic artist, and the costumes are rich and artistic to a degree.

Miss Ruby Vvvyan is delightfully uprightly and charming in the role of Delphine. Mr Strafford Moss, as the pompous and amorous old Colonel, fills conventional requirements. Mr Water Thomas, as the artist, with his six models who nro to help him with his painting of "Venus Rising from the Sea," has an appropriately light touch, and the sextet of models make a wellselected group. Mr Edwin Dodds fills the of the infatuated Buchotte well, and Miss Hilda Guiver as Bimboula. the high-spirited Persian woman, is an original impersonation.

Mr A. Howitt, as Uncle NoeJ Jolibcau, is another capital figure. Miss Doris Vinson, as Simone, is decidedly taking," and Mr Harold Clcmence, as Gigoux. is lively and effective. The choruses are well sung, and the piece went with all its wonted go.

At the beginning of the second act the Marseillaise was played by the orchestra out of compliment to our Allies, followed by God Save the King," in which the whole company joined, and ending with the unfurling of national flags. To-night a party of 74 soldiers will visit the thcati e. AUSTRALIAN PLAY AT THE "ALEXANDRA." At the Alexandra Theatre Australian Nell," a strong play of a familiar type, was thoroughly enjoyed last evening by a large Nell Carrington is of a muscular type, and as played by Leah Corenters makes a strong impression. Mr Alfred W. Adams, as Spanish Jed, is the villain.

There is a false charge of murder, and the scenes include a gambling saloon, a diamond creek by moonlight, a squatter's bedroom in a Queensland hut, cte. The scene between the Australian and the English women in the third act is very good. There are many thrilling incidents, which were lact night thoroughly appreciated. GEORGE FORMBY AT THE PALACE. The Lancashire bad lad" is drawing large audiences by his celebrated wit.

He, of course, was at once given a great reception. His items and "soft talk" were as entertaining and oiiginal as ever. Ho is both racy and resourceful, and his voice is "the limit." The whole programme is very attractive this week. La Pia performs some beautiful art dances, and the scenery effects are unsurpassed. Her new 'ntrodaction, "The Spirit of the waves," was the subject of much favourable comment.

Maud Tiffany, a clever American comediennewon great favour for her ragtime songs. Harry Atkinson showed remarkable powers in his imitation of musicai instruments, and Griffiths and Carmen The lady and the gave another bright turn Herber; Brook with his clever trick of escaping from a tightly-bound trunk, caused some mvstication. The song and patter of Tennyson and Wallis, two clever comedians, is quite orig'nal. Vict Travers as an eccentric comedian and dancer was remarkably smart. The Bioscope shows the later war news and actual films from the front.

The ruins of Louvain are wonderfully depicted. THE TIVOLL The performance of Margaret Moffat and Nat Ayer at the Tivoli Theatre is' the leading "turn" this week, and their ragtime selections, Oh, you beautiful doll," "You're my baby," Ragtime suffragette," with self-composed music by Mr Ayer, were a source of great delight. Mr Ayer composed these songs himself, and he gave several other lively mterprctat.ons of his own. A capital comedy trio were Tatten Ha 1 and who were very smart in a restaurant sccne, and later gave some good dancing in a Japanese scene. Simultaneous piano-playing by the two Boyds was an entertaining feature, and Da O'Toole, comedian, proved a howling success.

Two Belgian artistes, the Joannys, gave a clever shadograph exhibition. An unusually refined musical performance was that of the Vesper Violets. Freda Waring sang well, and receivjd wcM-earned applause. The Sisters Blonde Olda-re provided a daring ladder acrobatic act. ANLABY-ROAD WESLEYAN CHURCH AN IMPRESSIVE SERVICE.

An impressive service was held last night at the Anlaby-rCad Wesleyan Church. There was a very large congregation. The preacher was Mr D. Partridge. The choir rendered an anthem, and Mr W.

Sely sang a solo, "Be thou faithful unto death," with much power. The Roll of Honour was unveiled by Mr E. Baxter. Inscribed thereon were the names of 40 young men identified with the church responded to the call of the nation. Mr R.

J. Burden, the president of the class, made a fervent appeal, and presented, on behalf of the church, a email pocket Testament (a Church service and hymn-book). This memorable service concluded with the singing of Onward, Christian soldiers." The roll was executed by Mr Harold Copeland, one of the young men of the church. HULL WOMAN DROWNED AT BRIDLINGTON. Sir Luke White, M.P., conducted an inquest at the Court House, Bridlington, on Monday night, on the body of Mary Booth, single woman, aged 55 years, of Hull, who was found dead on the South sands the same morning by two labourers.

Mrs H. W. Evans said the deceased was in her employ as a domestic servant in Bessingby-road. She last saw her alive about six o'clock the previous evening, when she went out. Witness waited up for deceased until midnight.

Soon after the deceased had gone out witness found a piece of paper lying on the kitchen table, with the words, 4 I may not. lam that dull, I cannot live any longer." She informed the police the following morning about ten o'clock. In answer to the Coroner: She had no reason to suppose that the deceased would take her life. Questioned as to why she did not inform the polic3 earlier witness said she quite expected the deceased to return. John Pickering, labourer, North-street, was proceeding to his work on a bicyole about six o'clock that morning, and when on the Marine Drive he saw two men looking over the cliff at someone laid on the sands.

Hie went down, and found the body of a woman, quite dead, fully dressed, with the exception of the hat, which was lying some yards away. Dr T. Williams said he had made an external examination of the body, and in his opinion death was due to drowning. There were no marks of violence on the body, which appeared to have been in the water some hours. James William Booth, brother of deceased, said he had not seen his sister since June, but lie had never any reason to suppose she would oommit suicide.

A verdict of Suicide whilst of unsound mind" was returned. FREE RIDES FOR SOLDIERS IN UNIFORM.
