The Women's Political league o* Auckland does not 'says the Auckland Star) approve of the proposed d;s'tribution of medals to t\n> school children, as a souvenir of the Coronation. It was unanimously agieed at a meeting } held on Wediutc'ay night, that children do not appreciate these medals -ufScie<it!y to warrant the expenditure t,nta''fid, as, on the last occasion op which they were distributed, many medals werr fiung away as worthless wnliin a very sMrt ,time. In the opinion i*f the meeting, therefore, it would only be a waste of money that could it? much more sensibly spent in improving some of the roads in the j back blocks.
