Per Press Association. Wellington, December 2. Up to the present the. Second Reinforcements, now encamped at Trentham, have received little or nothing from the public in the way of gifts for use on • the long woyage Home. The total donations up-to-date, comprising only one piano from a resident of Wellington and one ton of literature from , the Wellington Boy Scouts. The men feel sore at having been so overlooked, especially as all kinds of gifts were showered upon the main force. Gifts of two more pianos will be specially welcomed by the men, and also a gramaphone and records. Literature, cases of fruit, tinned and dried fruits, cakes etc, are wanted. All gifts should be addressed to the "Second Reinforcements, care of Major Potter, Camp Commandant, rrentham." As the force comprises over two thousand men, it is hoped there will be a general and prompt response by the public and Patriotic Committee.
