STUDENT WORK DAYS.
New Zealand students join with students in Australia, Canada, Grent Britain, India, Portugal, South Africa, Sweden, Switzerland, and the United Stales —countries where liberty and encouragement to study remain, even though seriously impaired—to raise funds for the sake of their fellow-students in seventeen other countries who are victims of war. Last year New Zealand students raised nearly £8000, and with increasing needs in 1943 they hope to raise more. The whole amount spent, even including the large U.S.A. contributions, nray be small when compared with tlio expenditure by such an agency as the International Ued Cross, but the work is unique. It is done from sturlent to student.
