“GIVE ME A GOLD ONE PLEASE”
The board of directors of tho Y.M.C.A. is out to raise £SOO on Saturday, our boys are working and giving, our young men are working and giving, our business men are working and giving, and it only needs our friend Mr. Farmer to lend a hand and the thing is done. One hundred and three business men in Palmerston North have already given £248 7s in direct giving to the Y.M.C.A. funds this year, and they have been doing this since the Y.M.C.A. commenced here in 1020, bul still a deficit has had to be carried forward each year. These deficits amounted to £663 last year.
We don’t want to add to this amount, but to pay our way and get the debt xviped out this year; we want Mr. Farmer to help us. You are now doing well, prices are good, output is abundant, harvest is plentiful, we need £SOO or more; you won’t miss tho £1 we ask, but will cheer and help U 3 in this good work. The Y.M. is doing the job, what about your share in the work 1 Buy a gold badge to-morrow from our lady collectors and help us “put it. over.”
