They are three gunners, at present •serving with, the 31st Heavy Battery at Singapore, who, with the completion ol' their service with the army confronting them, have written to the Otago Daily Times stating that they are desirous of finding some pen friends in New Zealand, and that they are willing to come to this country “under promise of obtaining employment.” The communication j concludes: “P.S., Pen friends with a view to marriage.”
