Poppy Day
A generous resnonse was made by the public of Temuka and surrounding districts to the Popov Day appeal, the record sum of £llO/2/6 being realised. In commenting upon the result, the secretary of the Temuka R.S.A. (Mr G. A. Harris) expressed warm appreciation of the response made to the appeal. “The money collected,” he said, “is used to help necessitous cases amongst returned soldiers and to provide labour for digging gardens for war widows and women whose husbands are serving overseas.”

Woolford and Mrs Woolford, and arrangements were made for a social afternoon to be held next month. One new member was welcomed.
