A special announcement appears in this issue calling for helpers next Saturday in the sale of street tokens for the hospital and schools queen. The headquarters of the committee is in Mackay Street, opposite Badger’s which will be a rallying point for helpers, and well wishers from town and country. At various points of vantage in the town ladies will be stationed selling tokens at a very small sum; the possessor of a token will not be asked for any further contribution on that day. The Committee will be grateful for any goods that can be disposed of at the shop and it is also desirous of enrolling general assistants in this effort. The main school committee is lending its aid and it is hoped that the financial results will prove that the public needs only this reminder to wholeheartedly assist.
