WORK TO WIN
To Young Listeners, Do you get very tired of hearing everywhere you go that New Zealanders don’t know there is a wart on? They say it in the street, in the country, in trams, in buses--everywhere. Each one blaming the other. Of course you all know there is a war on, Some of you may like the excitement of it-but most of you are working at knitting or silver-ball making, or something to end it. A few of you are thinking that when you are older you will work till you find out some way of settling quarrels without fighting. Weep to Win The older Listeners are doing their best too, Thete is a group of 35 women who go twice a week and sit together crying for three hours on end. Whatever good will that do? Well you see, a factory at Petone can’t get their usual helpers to peel onions for the Navy-so these women offered to do it instead, and you know how onions make you cry.
