RECORD OF SERVICE?!
» FIVE BROTHERS ENLIST. THREE IN THIRD ECHELON. WANGANTJI, this day. The enlistment of five brothers, sons of Mrs. K. M. Langdon, of Bulls, gives that family probably a record for volunteer service. Three of the sons, Noel, Jim and Jack Langdon. are privates in the Third Echelon, N.Z.E.F. Two others, Ralph and Percy, have been classed as temporarily unfit. Mrs. Langdon has lived at Bulls for 40 years. Her parents were Mr. and Mrs. George Verry, early settlers of Waitotara.— (Press Assn.)
