Mr J. G. Oates, who has been an inmate of the Croydon Hospital, has returned to his home at Parkvale. Lady Galway Guild. Members of the Carterton Lady Galway Guild have two well made patchwork quilts on view in the window of the shop adjoining Stubbs’s pharmacy. They will be on exhibition for a few days before being dispatched to the Lady Galway Guild, Wellington, and later forwarded to England. The Carterton Guild appeal to anyone who has waste material of any description to send it to Miss Wolters, in order that Guild members may make further quilts for dispatch to England. The appeal is a worthy one and should commend itself to housewives. • Canteen of Cutlery. A canteen of cutlery is on view in a window of the shop of Messrs Feist and Co. It is to be raffled to provide funds for the Carterton branch of the Red Cross Society.
