PLUNKET APPEAL
£127 RAISED AT HAMILTON [FROM OUK OWN COIUtESPONDKNT] HA MI LTON, Wednesday Described by the president. Mrs. N. K. IJlonifield," as a magnificent response, .0127 was collected as a result of a street appeal conducted by the Hamilton Plunket Society yesterday. This is the first occasion that the society has launched a street collection, funds being obtained last year by means of a garden fete which yielded £76.
Mrs. Ulomfield said the result showed the public's appreciation of the society's work. To carry on normal activities the society required £45 a month, of which the Government contributed a third by way of subsidy, and the sum collected would be of the greatest assistance.
