FALLEN SOLDIERS’ MEMORIAL.
ELSEWHERE in this issue will be found the full list of contributors to the Fallen Soldiers’ Memorial Fund. So far no canvass has been made for the fund, and those contributing have done so voluntarily. Owing to the-holidays, many have overlooked the fund, and will no doubt send along their contributions before the fund closes at the end of this month. The, objective aimed at was £SOO, and surely this is little enough to put into a lasting memorial for those who paid the supreme sacrifice. There has'been a difference of opinion as to the form of the piemorytl, some advocating swimming baths, and others a band rotunda in Easton Park. Anyhow, the meeting decided to reel an obelisk in the Triangle Reserve in Main Street, and all, we feel sure, will fall in with the proposal. To those who desire to assist we make this appeal to semi in their contributions as early .as possible, in order that the memorial may be erected and unveiled on Anzac Day.
