THRIFT.
I regret 1 have very little to report for the year. In the June number of the “White Ribbon’ 1 had a letter published urging the In ions to take an active interest in the work of “Thrift,” to which 1 received several replies, asking for advice concerning the work, which 1 at once answered, also sending leaflets. A letter also in the November number of “W.R.” from me, asking for any reports of work done. 1 received replies from the following Unions:- - Timaru. New Plymouth, and Wellington, to the effect no work done during the year; hope to appoint a Superintendent next year. Pahiatua reports: Paper read, at afternoon meeting, explaining the Provident Fund instituted by the N.Z. Government; member- very much interested, and agreed to make it known. A great many people here possess home savings banks. Masterton.—Did not appoint a Superintendent this year. Several personal friends ha\e become possessors of the home -avmg- banks during the year. At the last session of Parliament provision was made in the Kducation Bill by which savings banks can be established by the School Committees for the benefit of the children. M.FLANAGAN.
