Grant, said in her report presented to the annual meeting last evening. Attendance at meetings had also risen, she reported. Programmes throughout the year had been varied and interesting. The social services subcommittee had worked’hard to raise funds for the needy. Members had provided
knitted rugs, and garments which were distributed to needy cases. The club continued to support the sponsored child in Greece, and contributions had been made to help support a girl at Ramallah, a training school for Palestinian refugees in Jordan. Efforts, to initiate the next national project were under way.', Next year the New Zealand federation will offer a scholarship for three years study at the University of the South Pacific to a Fijian girl living in Suva.
