Mr Sidney Pitt, of Stratford, who lias been undergoing medical treatment in Wellington for some weeks, has returned to Stratford very much improved in health his friends will be glad to learn. Staff-Captain Carter, who visits Stratford to-morrow (Thursday), as the Dominion organiser, of the LifeSaving Scouts, hails from England, and has spent some years in India as a missionary officer in the Salvation Army. While there he married Captain Alice Law, a New Zealander, who also was working in India, when they were transferred to New Zealand.

A large attendance is expected, and a most interesting time can be looked for at the Army Hall, to-morrow night, at 8 o’clock.
