PICKWICK CLUB
Tho Pickwick' Club will hold its annual meeting next Wednesday. The annual report speaks well of the enthusiasm of its members, and they have liberally subscribed to every deserving object that has been brought under their notice, prominent amongst which was the giving of a tree on Arbor Day to the Wellington City Council, wliich is now planted near the Botanical Gardens, and called the Charles Dickenß Tree. With .the assistance of their Wellington friends, they W6re enabled to place nearly £70 worth of sports material on the ships that took away our First Expeditionary Force, and £10 worth of the same class of goods on the ships_ that left later. Tho gift of a live pig to the last Trentham camp also conies in for favourable comment, and the letter received from Major Potter expresses the delight of the men on receiving such a uniquo gift. At the conclasion of tho meeting a debate, which will be run on' purely Pickwickian lines, will bo handled by ox-University students, the subject being, "Is it a fact that we have in Wellington a citizen who represents tho character of Captain Jingfe?"
