Thanks to Salma al-Haffar al-Kuzbari

★ We noted in the last issue that the woman of letters Mrs. Salma al-Haffar al-Kuzbari had donated a sum of money, from the proceeds of her book "Hala's Diary," to the "Dar al-Bani'a" institution in Tripoli. Mrs. Fatima Manla Ali, secretary of the institution, sent the writer this letter:

To the esteemed woman of letters, Mrs. Salma Haffar al-Kuzbari.

The Women's Charitable Society of Tripoli is proud of the repeated manifestations of your material and moral sympathy, and of the noble enthusiasm with which you fill your soul in encouraging its works. It offers you its deep thanks and abundant respect, praying that you may enjoy the success which your virtues and fine qualities deserve, and that you may long remain a shining torch in the world of goodness and charity.

The Secretary
