NAVY LEAGUE NOTES
Since the parcel of 190 garments for the New Zealand mine- , sweepers was sent off last week, good progress has been made in the accumulation of “ comforts ” for the North Sea minesweepers. After these have been despatched work will still continue, as a certain quota is required each month by Headquarters in Wellington to fit out further ships, both minesweepers, merchant vessels and others, also to replace worn garments. A quantity of wool has been received from the Town Hall for naval com-' forts. This has been distributed among Navy League knitters, and the garments will be forwarded direct through the Navy League, which will account to the Patriotic Council for the wool received, giving details of how it is made up. and where it is sent.
