WAIRARAPA NOTES
(, Anzac Day was celebrated in 'Masterton on Thursday by the holding of a combined service in the Municipal Hall, which was crowded. In the evening the i Returned ' Soldiers' Association held its I annual reunion, when a number of toasts were honoured. , I The new Returned Soldiers' Club in Jlasterton is to be opened in about three , weeks' time. j T'ho prolific growth of grass in the j Wairarapa lias resulted in a considerable i mortality among hoggets. ! Considerable discussion took place at a meeting of the Wairarapa Hospital and Charitable Aid Board on a proposal" to I allow the inmates of the Solway and Bu- j cliaiiiin Homes 2s. per week pocket money.' It was urged by one speaker that to grant pocket money would encourage drinking habits among the inmates. Eventually an amendment was carried, referring the matter to the Central Committee for investigation and report. The estimates of the Wairarapa Hospital and Charitable Aid Board for the ensuing year show an increase of nearly ,£1(100 com'pared with last year.
