A PETONE PILOT
Mrs. M. Merrilees, of 49 Fitzherbert Street. Petone, has received from the Air Department a cutting from a Canadian paper recording the fact that her son, T. I. Merrilees, headed a big class of graduates who received their wings. The article states that "Merrilees was a brilliant air student."
The letter from the Air Department states: "It was a fine effort on the part of your son to head the class as the only New Zealand representative."
Pay for one hour's work was recently contributed by 50,000 Congress of Industrial Organisation workers in New Jersey, U.S.A., to. build for children homes in safe areas of England.
