A UNIQUE ART UNION

NO DELAY IN DRAWING. The committee pf the M'Hardy Gift Art Union announces in our advertising columns that the drawing for the valuable block of land in Palmerston North shall take place oj January 20, without fail; in Short, that there will be no postponement from the date first announced. The promoters of this art union state that not only are thoy to keep faith with the large-hearted public in the date of drawing, but already they have remitted money to the front to provide practical aid, per the Y.M.CTA., for our noble 6oldiers, and will continue to do so. The books of' the art union are open to inspection. The public should not be slow to appreciate such businesslike methods. Half-a-crown given in this way to help those who are sacrificing life and limb for all of us may return a .£3OOO reward to the donor. The property, given l>y'Sir. P. A. M'HaTdy to the llanawatu Patriotic Society to be disposed of for the Wounded Soldiers' Fund, is situated in the business centre of Palmerston North and is valued at ;C3OOO. A syndicate is prepared to purchase it at .£2OOO cash. But somebody's humble half-crown is to take it on January 29.
