WELCOME TO LADY BLEDISLOE
MESSAGE BY WIRELESS
WELLINGTON, Alarch 17
The enterprising course of extending the first welcome to Lady Bledisloe on behalf of the women of New Zealand associated with the AVomen’s Institute was taken to-night by Afiss Agnes At. Stops, when speaking from 2YA on the subject of women’s institutes. Afiss Stops explained that Lady Bledisloe was keenly interested in the AVomen’s Institute, which lias done so much, not only in Great Britain, hut also in forty other countries. Miss Stops said that wireless advice had been given to Lady Bledisloe of the talk and the welcome, and a request had been made that she should listen in. It was estimated that Lady Bledisloe would he a little more than 200 miles away, and that the welcome was timely. Speaking to the microphone, Aliss Stops then said : “Lady Bledisloe, I hope you are able to hear me. O'n behalf of Afiss Jerome Silencer, chief organiser of the AA romen’s Institute in New Zealand, and 'of members of the institute throughout the Dominion, it gives me most intense pleasure to use the modern means of radio to extend to you the first definite greeting from the women of New Zealand and to express the hope that you will have a happy sojourn amongst us.”
