TRUE SYMPATHY.
AN EXTINCT TOWN BOARD. EXAMPLE OF CITIZENSHIP. A splendid example of the response to the appeal for donations to the King' George V. Memorial Fund hae been provided by' the members of the now defunct Turna Town Board. Thie local body in common with all similar organisations received a copy of the Prime Minister's appeal for support for the j memorial, which is to take the form of | children's permanent health camps, a i few days after it had been merged with ' the Hauraki Plains County Council, but its members decided to meet unofficially and subscribe among themselves to the' fund. In a letter to the Hon. P. Fraser, acting-Prime Minister, Mr. J. M. Mules, the late chairman, stated that the members were so much in sympathy with the object of the appeal that they with the late clerk were making a joint donation of £8.
