N.Z. IRISHWOMEN: A SUGGESTION.
TO THE EDITOR. Sir,—Will you kindly allow me space in your paper to endorse A Daughter of Erin’s’ suggestion re Irishwomen and their descendants in New Zealand being allowed an opportunity of giving a contribution, however small, in aid of the Home Rule fund. Irishmen, as we note with pleasure, are already up and doing, and why should Irishwomen not follow their example? Would it not be a good plan if, say, two lady collectors were appointed in each parish. It would be a means of approaching those who would feel shy of sending a small contribution; or again, those who take not interest enough in the cause to send any contribution direct. May I suggest that if all the children in our Catholic schools throughout the Dominion were asked to contribute a penny each, the sum total may be very creditable. Hoping some influential person will give a lead. lam sure others will follow. —I am, etc., A DAUGHTER OF ERIN, NO 2.
