AUNT DAISY'S TRIP TO WANGANUI
‘KR UNT DAISY is becoming well known in Wanganui. Some months ago she paid a personal visit in connection with the apple pie contest, and the other day she dropped in to help Wanganui people with their quota of the £1,000,000 drive for patriotic funds. It was a most successful trip, and even at Aramoho Junction there were many women gathered to welcome her. At Wanganui, where there was another big crowd, Aunt Daisy and her party were welcomed by the Mayor, the Hon. H. Rogers, M.L.C., and the town clerk. Occasion of the day was the patriotic sing at the Opera House, for which a big and enthusiastic audience turned up.
A novelty was a cooking competition on the stage, everything cooked being subsequently auctioned. The following morning was given over to the Wanganui branch of the Happiness Club. The branch, according to Aunt Daisy, is a model one, and is doing fine work.
