NAVY LEAGUE WAR FUND APPEAL.

What is it that has saved New Zealand and other outlying portions of the Empiro in this -war? The British Nary. Deeds, such as those of the Broke and the Swift, or the sealing of Zeebrugge and Ostcnd, quicken the pulse, but entail the loss of valuable lives, and the Navy League is asking yon to help, the dependents of tens of thousands of heroic men who have been lost at sea since August, 1914. This is your debt to them, and it is your duty—your responsibility—to contribute magnificently, as they have fought, and died. The fund is administered by a responsible and representative committee in London, and donations sent to the office of the Navy League, 119, Worcester Street, Christchurch, will bo gratefully acknowledged. ALEX. BOYLE, President, Canterbury (N.Z.) Branch of the Navy League.
