Pointing out that many service
girls find an opportunity for rest
and recreation in the YWCA huts,
Mrs. Churchill wrote from 10 Down

Joining his majesty's forces
means a hard and eXacting life for
these girls and though they accept
the fact gladly and are proud Of
the part they are playing in the
war, they do need the atmosphere
of companionship and friendliness
which a YWCA center can give and
which to them is reminder of all
that home means"
Mother Strong" also has received
an affectionate note which was
signed Your daughters of Strong

Just few words" the girls
