CHRISTMAS PRESENTS
FOR TROOPS AT SAMOA. A' few days it was announced that anyone who wished l to send Christmas presents to ,tlie New Zealand troops at Samoa could conveniently do.so by forwarding the samo to the Town Hall, where they .would be received and checked by the executive committee of the Lady Liverpool Fund, who have been working so energetically ever since the outbreak of the war. It was anticipated that there would bo enough' to pack into three or four cases, but parcels, boxes, hampers, and tins simply streamed into the Town Hall throughout yesterday until tho Mayor's room was stacked to a height of about four feet, and' the little njountain of good things will probably form two very respectable cartloads. To : day is the last day on which such' presents will be received, and there is bound to be another cartload received to-day. Every trooper in Samoa is to be remembered. Those who are not receiving a package of some description from their relatives and friends are to be provided for out of the money of the Lady Liverpool Fund, so that every man will bo assured in somo measure of a happy Christmas.'
