MANAWATU PATRIOTIC SOCIETY.
Everyone in [New Zeaand is anxious to pay due honour to all those who have volunteered for the field of honour, and to their relatives in New Zealand, who have so uncomplainingly borne the .almost greater burden of sending away their children or relatives, it is only right that all these should have a place on New Zealand’s Roll of Honour. The Manawatu Patriotic Society is anxious to compile a complete list of all who have enlisted with the New Zealand, Australian, Imperial or Allied forces from the Wellington military aera—which extends from Wellington on the south, to Gisborne on the east, and Taranaki on the west—or whose relatives reside in that area. In order that the names of these soldiers may he _ handed down to posterity, and their dependents relieved in proper cases from pecuniary distress, a roll is being compiled for this purpose. It is desired to make it complete. The Society would, therefore, esteem it a favour if any person residing in the Wellington military area whose child, husband, relative, or friend has volunteered in any part of _the world, would forward full particulars with the name, regiment, and place of enlistment of the soldier and the name and address of the relative, to the secretary of the Manawatu Patriotic Society, Palmerston. iNOfth.
