Won Her Own Gift
As a contribution to the war effort Mrs Baxter (Christchurch) recently gave an antique platinum ring to be raffled for the Red Cross appeal in Sumner. As a further contribution she bought a ticket in the raffle. Many hundreds of tickets were sold. When the numbers were drawn the winning one was found to be hers. She was entitled to receive back the gift she had given, leaving the Red Cross funds some pounds richer.
