“GIVE A LAMB EACH.”
County Councillors Will Help Unemployed. Per Press Association. WANGANUI, December S.
Mr Duncan Mackintosh, chairman of the Wanganui County Council, at a meeting to-day suggested that each councillor should give a fat lamb to be distributed among the unemployed workers in the country for Christmas, at the same time making an appeal for farmers to follow the lead. “ We have had a lift in wool we never expected,” said Mr Mackintosh, •' and I would be very sorry to think that some of the unemployed workers and their families were going short for Christmas dinner.” Some councillors promised from three to four lambs and decided to send an appeal to all sheep farmers in the county to send in a lamb each. We are now doing much better than the unemployed relief workers, said Mr Mackintosh.
