FATHER AND SON REUNITED
* PERTH, December 26. Canon Hammond states that a parcel of New Zealand illustrated papers that had been left by an anonymous woman at the receiving depot tor gifts for the poor has been the means of reuniting a sick returned soldier and his father. The papers were presented to a soldier, a New Zealander, who read in one of them that his father, whom he had not seen for years, was seeking him urgently. The son communicated with his father and arranged to return to New Zealand by the first available steamer.
