CHARITY BEGINS AT HOME.
(To the Editor.) Sir, —In reply to “M,” the correspondent of Tuesday’s edition, re Princess Mary’s Fund. I am sure little is enough to be said about this subject. Seeing that Viscount Lascelles, is a millionaire, and that the said Princess is only worth £lO,OOO a year, I am postlve that they would expect nothing whatsoever from the New Zealand people, who, what with the Labour difficulties, and financial embarrassments, have enough to do to make a do of things. It is not the “shilling, ”it is solely the principle of the thing. If money is to be collected for any good purpose, why not institute an unemployment, jund? with the the object to assist the wives and children of our own unemployed. Remember! that “Charity begins at home.”—l am etc., A PROPOS.
