WELL-KNOWN AUCKLANDER

Lady Myers, who has been absent from Auckland for the last five years, returned again yesterday by the Aorangi and is accompanied by her daughter, Miss Eileene Myers, and her son, Mr. Kenneth Myers, who recently secured his B.A. at Cambridge. It is her intention to remain about five months. While in London Lady Myers takes an active part in the social life and is also a member of the Mothercraft Training Society, which was established by Sir Truby King and which is similar in organisation to the societies he has established in New Zealand. This training society was established during the war and is one of the most flourishing and successful societies of its kind in the United Kingdom. A remarkable thing about it is that all the milk used by the society comes from New Zealand. It is known as New Zealand cream and is exported in a dry form to England and is prepared and supervised in Wellington under Sir Truby King's personal direction. This work was proving a wonderful advertisement for New Zealand in England. Lady Myers intends spending some two or three months in Auckland, where she will renew her friendship with old friends. She will also visit the South Island, for, although her children had been born in Auckland, they had not set foot in the South Island. When returning to England, Lady Myers will visit Java and the East.
