THE HOSPITAL SHIP.
FUND TO CLOSE ON 23RD. JUNE. His Excellency the Governor on Thursday made the following statement: —“In view of the splendid response which has been accorded all over the Dominion to my appeal for equipping the hospital ship, which will shortly depart from the shores of New Zealand, I think the time has arrived when a date should be given for closing this fund. I should be glad, therefore, if no further contributions were sent to the Under-Secretary for Internal Affairs after Wednesday, 23rd June. “As soon as all expenses connected with the hospital ship have been paid, I propose to place the surplus money on deposits at the Bank of New Zealand, and to utilise it for purposes which in any way affect the well-being of our sick and wounded, whether by the replenishment of comforts tor the hospital ship, base hospitals, stationary hospitals, or convalescent homes.”
