Undaunted by the difficulties of the times the Auckland Blind Institute is again conducting a stall of Blind-Insti-tute goods at the Taranaki Winter SUow.° The display is interesting and varied and contains new designs of basketware at prices within the scope of reduced purses. At a recent meeting of subscribers the trustees stated that the institute was experiencing serious financial difficulties, due to the cutting out of Government subsidy and a fall in its income from investments arising from the reduction of interest rates. Thr.oi-gh the increasing efficiency of its blind workers, the institute had been in recent years growing steadily more selfsupporting, and now it must look more than ever to the sale of wares to keep its men and women maintained, occupied and happy. Under these circumstances the trustees are profoundly grateful to its many friends who assist jn marketing these very attractive wares.
