It is unfortunate that some misguided person has commenced to distribute per the post, white feathers accompanied by type-written slips of paper and quoting the words "yellow streaks." One young man has received three of these. It so happens that two months ago he offered his services in the technical department of the forces, and has this week received notice to hold himself in readiness to report for duty. Personal Items. Mrs H. G. Carter and family have returned from a holiday spent at the bays. Mrs A. Cook, of Christchurch, is the guest of Mr and Mrs H. C. Cook, East Street.
