Miss Dorothy Marie Brown. daughter
of Mrs. Thomas Brown, who was At
school for three years in England. has
received an interesting folder from
former schoolmate telling of the ''Vege-
table Products Committee" The com
mittee itself reads like a page of Burke's
Peerage with a surplus and over of dukes
and earls. The president is that lovable
and hearty old Ir1shman. Almiral Lord
Charles Beresford. so popularity known
in America and especially with the Of
ficers OF our own service as Lord
Charlie" Other names on the commit
tee we'll known here are that of Lady
Jellicoe, Lord Norton and the Earl of
Hardwicke.
The object of the committee is to de-
liver fresh fruit and vegetables. not for
getting preserves, jams and candy, to the
men Of the North Sea fleet.
The British railways carry these con-
signments free Of cost. The more perish
able things are taken on the passenger
trains.
The folder brings out the curious fact
that the men of the British navy must
buy at their own expense all fresh fruits
and vegetables they may eat.
