League Of Mothers

They were Mrs S. O. English, Dominion treasurer; Mrs Harvey Turner, Provincial President; and Mrs Utting, Provincial Secretary,

Mrs English is also a distinguished past provincial president, and has done a great deal for the league. Mrs J. A. Inkster presided, and welcomed the guests, and introduced them to the members. Little Shirley Brake, whose mother is vice-president of the league, presented each of the visiters with a bouquet. An initiation service for new members was taken by Mrs Harvey Turner, and a greeting from the Auckland members was brought by Mrs Utting.

Mrs English gave an address on the aims and objects of the league. This address was most inspiring.

Mrs Inkster thanked Mrs English for the help given by her visit, and hoped that in the not too distant future Whangarei would again be honoured by another visit from the guests.

During the afternoon, Mrs Fry and Mrs R. Stevenson gave musical items, Mrs R. Masters being the accompanist Bouquets were presented to these ladies, who had helped to make the afternoon the success that it was.
