FOR THE NAVY.

RAISING FUNDS IN CKRISTCHURCiI. "For the men who hold >.}:■■• -vas" ;- : the appeal which the ' ;;i : << hj; ■ n branch of the Navy Leag.i", ai ;<.-! :■; many willing workers, will wake to ti.--public to-day. And a stirring ;.;-■ peal it is—a call for money to piovi comforts for the cheerful, hardy j ien who keep the seas for Britain in ford weather or fair, in hurricane, ice an.l snow; comforts for the gallant men win lie in the naval hospitals or serve on naval hospital ships, comforts for the navy men who are prisoners of war in enemy countries, and relief for the dependents of the men of the Navy who have given their lives or their limbs for their country. In case there should be people who want something more than the thought of what the Navy is doing, to stimulate them to generosity, there will be stalls in the streets for the sale of all sorts of things.
