TO HELP SOLDIERS
« PROPOSAL TO FORM A LIiAGUE. 3fr. F. Norris, whose address is at 22 Miriam Street-, Masterton, writes to The Dominion concerning a proposal he has on hand to form a National Service League, the object of which shall be to help soldiers when they come back from the war. "I have been asked," writes Mi-. Norris, "to organise early in the NewYear a National Service League, to help them to regain, their former positions and to make them wolcome both in civil and social life, and gain for them preference in both, so that they may enter life afresh amongst us, under tlie most favourable conditions, and I trust many will rise to fill tlie highest positions 111 the land." The proposal is that there shall bo two sections in the league, one consisting of those who have enlisted, those who have volunteered and l been rejected, and any other men who have fought 111 past wars for Britain, and the othe* consisting of people, not soldiers, who will pledge themselves to give help to soldiers in civil life. It is suggested that members of both branches shall wear distinguishing badges.
