Keeping warm In Coldest Spot In India
This letter,” writes Gunner A. C. Branston, who is serving with the Royal Artillery on the North-West Frontier, “is written because I have come across some very good letters in the Times,’ which I get every week, from readers across the sea.”
Gunner Branston’s home is at Doncaster, but he is really a Denaby lad, was born there, and has lots of friends there. He has been in India a little over two years, and his term expires next year. His battery is at present stations in Ruzmak, “one of the coldest places in India, but as far as that goes we get plenty of sport.”
Gunner Branston (as you may judge by the photograph) is himself very keen on physical culture, particularly weight-lifting, boxing, and running, and one of the first things he means to do when he gets home is to organise a gymnastic club for youths interested in physical culture
