RESULT OF STREET DAYS OF TRADERS’ COMMITTEE A cheque for £2536/15/11 was received yesterday by Mi - W. F.

The amount was made up of £1705/16/2, the proceeds of the street day held by the committee on November - 1, £7BO/19/9 from the raffle for the children’s playhouse made by employees of the firm of Calder Mackay Co., Ltd., and £5O collected in the Georgetown area by the Georgetown Women’s Committee. The first street day of the traders’ committee resulted in a sum of £2276 7/11 being raised, and of this amount £5OO was given to the Red Cross Society and the balance to the Patriotic Fund. The two appeals thus yielded a sum of £4813/3/10.
