A GENEROUS GIFT
FOR WOUNDED SOLDIERS. (By TileewiDh.—Press Association.^ ' : Dunedln, August 23. '■ Mr. P. R. Sargood has written to tho Patriotic Committee, offering to place in the hands of trustees appointed by himself. fivo thousand preferential shares in Sargood, Son an'd Ewcn, to be held by them for twenty-five years, on certain conditions, for tlie. benefit of wounded soldiers. Mr.' Sargood says he has made tho offer in the hope that there iinay be others who, while anxious to do %11 in their power to. provide for soldiers, might find it difficult to make an adeauate cash contribution, whereas a commitment against future income would be met by extra exertion and by sacrifice of .personal luxuries. The income for the first fivo years is to bo' spent in purchasing membership privilgees from the Otago Y;M.C.A., and providing special accommodation in the way/of a social room for the SoKTers.
