CAMP HOSPITAL
An urgent plea for magazines
for the Camp White Station hos
pital was made today by hospi
tal recreation workers who stat
ed that dozens of copies of late
Issue could be used. The maga
zines may be left at the River
side USO from where they will
be taken to camp.
Lists of the m st popular mag
azines have been made up by
workers who distribute them and
have come to know the favorites
of the men. Women's magazines
are not desired, but issues of
weekly magazines, such s Col
liers, Saturday Evening Post and
the news weeklies. Including
Life, Time and News' Week, are
much in demand providing they
are not more than two or hree
weeks old. Copies of monthly
magazines, such as the Reader's
Digest, Country Gentlemen and
esquire, are favorites providing
they are not more than two
months old.
Westerns Liked
Westerns of all types, comic
maxazlnes and detective maga
zines are greatly In demand and
here the date of Issue doe not
matter so much. This Is true also
of such better-type magazines asi
Fortune, Atlantic Monthly, Harp
ers and the New Yorker, for
which there Is much demand.
Outdoor magazines of all types
are also greatly enjoyed by the
patients, It was said.-
Residents of this area are
urged to make a practice of turn-
ins In their magazine regularly
each week instead of allowing
them to accumulate.
