SUCCESS OF CAMPAIGN . DUNEDIN SECOND ON LIST (P.A.) WELLINGTON, Dec. 13. “Health Stamp sales up to November 30 amounted to £64,000 compared with £38,500 for the corresponding period of last year’s campaign,” said the acting Postmaster-general, Mr F. Jones, to-day. “ The .Auckland Postal District, with sales amounting to £8443 now holds pride of place for the Dominion. Dunedin follows with £6475, and then Christchurch with £5764 and Wellington with £5037. “ Some of the country areas,” Mr Jones added, “ have achieved in proportion to their population an even greater success than has been recorded in the larger cites and towns. Stamps are still available, but over 85 per cent, have been disposed of.” The Minister added that it looked as though the stocks would be completely exhausted before Christmas.
