A matter of special <merest in connection with the money s that the Maoris of Tokomaru Bay collected amongst themselves the sum of /*47 1 os, with the request it was to he cabled “Home” as being from the Maoris. The best thanks of the Ladies’ Guild is due to Mrs Nimmo, Superintendent of the Union, for the trouble she has taken in the collection and despatch of these goods.

Hospital at Brockenhurst early in January, and will now he detailed for Home Service.—“ Chart and Compass.”
