Anne Watt’s many friends in Cassiar may be interested to know that she is now in Viet Nam, working for the Save The Children Association. Our last news of her was from Bangkok where she was staying overnight before travelling on to a hospital in Qui Nhon, 250 miles northeast of Saigon, where she will care for fifty war-wounded and displaced children.

In the heat of Bangkok, Anne advises that she was thinking nostalgically of Cassiar’s cool snow.

We wish Anne the best of luck in her new post.

A banker may write a bad poem, but a poet had better not write a bad cheque.
