A party, at which Father Christmas ' would be present, wae arranged for children up to 7 years of age. It wag hoped to organise a pic- ■ ture party for children from 7 to 14 years. The Mayoress, Mre. 'H. A. Anderson, who presided, offered her residence and grounds in Alleiidale Road, for the Christmas party. Personal calle will be made at the home of every _ Mount Albert man on service overseas in order to avoid any' child being overlooked. Mrs. Anderson hoped that mothers would* co-operate in making the entertaining of the children a success by sending in names and ages to her or to the hon. secretary, Mrs. T. J. Spry, 42, Allendale Road, Mount Albert.
