1 m A VITAL MESSAGE TO EVERY NEW ZEALANDER I APPEAL to every patriotic New Zealander to do his duty towards the defence of the Nation. The way is simple. The need is urgent. If an educated democracy takes determined measures for its own defence, it will not suffer defeat if attacked. If you are a loyal Citizen, peaceful minded, anxious that this country should not go to War—yet prepared to defend a precious heritage, the best service you can render the cause of peace in these shores is by service in the Territorial Force or enrolment in the National Military Reserve. The establishment of the Territorial Force has been increased to a total of 16,000 all ranks. I therefore appeal to all young men of spirit between the ages of 18-32 to take their place in the Territorial Force with that splendid body of men already rendering national service of the highest value. I appeal also to the Mayors, County Chairmen and Councillors and local Government Officials to do all in their power to recruit their local units up to strength. I appeal to employers of labour to assist in granting leave and facilities for employees to attend camp. A good Territorial is a good workman. I appeal to the manhood of New Zealand, if not eligible for the Territorial Force, to enrol in the National Military Reserve. Finally, the women of the Nation can do their part by encouraging enlistment in either the Territorial Force or the National Military Reserve. The man who is ready and willing to defend your home is worthy of your highest respect. EVERY MAN CAN Prime Minister DO HIS PART DISTRICT HONOURS LIST The following centres are included in the District Honours List because they have already completed their quota for the local Territorials.
