Étendue matérielle et support

Note: only copy of this is part of bound volume BVUK/MEM/1/1/1

This copy is bound with an extra cover. There is a pencil annotation, presumably of ownership, 'Welch' at the top right hand side of the outer cover.
The cover features a photo of the exterior of St Dunstan's Lodge, showing the clock and a man standing before it. The photo is credited Brunell.
The Editorial sets out what the magazine aims to do, and invites articles, letters and enquiries. Later in the issue there is also an invitation to provide an article on 'Friendship', to be submitted pseudonymously, with a prize of £1 1s for the best.
'Rowing on the Lake' is an unattributed article which describes how this activity has become popular and thanks Mr Johnson, Bob and Jack who lend and prepare the boats.
'To those with Secretarial Aspirations' is a poem. It is attributed to 'Petty-Cash' and described as after 'If' with apologies to Rudyard Kipling.
'Selina Sings to the Soldiers' is an article, gently humorous in tone, about a young woman singer (a VAD?) of which 'St Dunstan's was her first victim'. Several of the men are mentioned by first name only: Tom ('who can see a little'), Billy ('for the first time thankful that he could not'), James, Charlie, Freddie, Jerry, Jack (described also as 'auld Ireland'), Alec (mentioned as having learnt massage), and Archie. There are also references to a Mr Christian, Miss Morris and Miss Coke.
'Ships that Pass in the Night' is an unattributed humorous article/story based around St Dunstan's.
'Visitor's Day' is an unattributed humorous article describing a typical Tuesday afternoon, when visitors were received and shown around by VADs. It concludes with a poem on the theme of a visitor arriving on a day that is not the visiting day.
'An Interview' is a humorous representation of a phone conversation involving the Secretary, Mr Fishe. It also mentions Miss Jacobs.
'The V.A.D.'s' is an anonymous article discussing the VADs and their activities. It mentions Miss Claire Voyante, 'Miss Jolly Polly', Miss Fortune and Miss Field Roberts, as well as one of the officers, Jones.
