The Mayor of Auckland's Servian Keliet Fund Committee acknowledged the receipt of £lO irom the League. A letter was received from the secretary of the Auckland Women's Patriotic League thanking the Papakura League for its efforts in providing twenty - five hussits monthly for the past five months and asked if the League was prepared to continue doing so for a further period ot six months.—The committee decided to comply with the request. The treasuier reported that the usual monthly contribution of £9 had been forwarded to the Belgian Fund.

As there has been a steady drain on the resources of the League the question of supplementing the Funds by means of a concert was discussed at length. Eventually it was decided to invite a neighbouring musical Society to give a concert in Papakura in aid of the League's Funds.
