THE CADET MOVEMENT.
A SUGGESTED STIMULUS. To tho Ladies of Now Zealand. 1 am writing to ask you to help a lit. •tie in something which I know will inter, est you all, as almost every lady iu a lo Dominion has sons, brothers, nephews or cousins in the .Senior Cadets. They will soon bo commencing their training for tins year, and it seems to mo it would be a help towards getting Hie very best results from their rifle shooting if ladies all over Iho Dominion would subscribe anything they like, from Is. upwards, to form a general fund to provide prizes lor each district, to bo shot for, ind called "The Ladies' Prize." ■ I would suggest that tho mayoresses or Indies they may depute in each district whioh is a centre of a Senior Cadet coinpany, should kindly undertake to receive subscriptions and collect in that dis. trict, giving her nnjno and address in the local paper, so that all might know to whom to send, and I would ask hor to forward the amounts as they como in to m Yi. , W ,l would ncknowlcdgo them, and publish the amounts received, in the papers. It may seem ambitious, but let us try. if our funds will allow, to have a ladies' prize for every Senior Cadet compajiv in the Dominion. Wo want the New' Zealand Senior Cadets to be second to none nil over the Lmpiro, and I am suro this can best and soonost bo accomplished by all the ladies joining and showing that they take a very real, practical interest in the young men of tho future win, are to bo their defenders. My husband, General Godle,-, niprovos very much of this idea „f asking the Indies to encourage their Senior Cadets, and I trust that my suggestion may meet w-ith your approval and support.-I am. etc., _ , r LOUISA M.
