THE CHILDREN'S APPEAL

"Help the Kiddies," is the slogan for Friday next, when the street day, for the purpose of raising funds for the play area, to be established in front of the Hospitals will take place. A great deal of enthusiasm is being 6hown not only by the citizens of Wellington, but by the ' country districts .as well. Goods for sale on the stalls are ready to hand from Rotorua and, other places as far north as Auckland, and given a .fine day, the' effort is sure, to make a special appeal to the generosity of the public.
