New Zealand School Children’s Annual Gift Dinner Part of the Guildhall Crowd of 1200 Children. Church Army Headquarters, " Marble Arch, London, W.l, Dear Now Zealand Friends:— July, 1925. We give you just two small snapshots of happy dinner parties which your gifts of last year provided for tha poor children of the Homeland. Wo cannot tell you of the joy which your gifts enable us to give to underfed, ragged children in centres throughout the country. Sir James Allen attended' the London dinner, and the Lord Mayors attended the respective dinners in the provincial centres; ail expressed gratitude to New Zealand and her school children and her other kind donors. Help these children again, if you please! Wa are proud to be the connecting link between your kind hearts i;id the grateful children whom you help. Ever yours graft fully, Honorary Chief Serjetarylord Mayor of London and Sir James Allen with Stepney’s “Hopefuls.** BLACK WOOL FOB MOTHERLESS CHILDREN. Sir,— In 1910 a Self-Denial Fund was started to help London poor children through the Church Army. Many sheep fa rm era in Hawke’s Bay gave black or other odd wool, and since then the fund has increased yearly, and is now contributed to in tho Wairarapa, Bay of Plenty, Poverty Bay, as well as Hawke’s Bay. The proceeds are given entirely to help the Church Army to maintain and educate tho motherless, and in very many cases, the fatherless children of those who fought for tho Empire’s liberties. While at the front sailors and soldiers left their children to tho care of the Church Army till they returned. But, alas! Many did not return, but their families were, and aro still, maintained by the Church Army. Tho British Government set apart houses in Maida Vale, London, and we placed two Church Army sisters is ■ charge of each home, where those “In Trust for the Empire” could be educated. In addition to the Government subsidy, a sum of £5OOO is required yearly, for this particular work. New Zealand is taking a hand by means of this Black Wool Fund. Flock House is a noble testimony of the gratitude of sheep farmers to those who kept our trade routes open during tho war. This fund educates tho dependants of those brave men till they are old enough (if suitable) to be sent to tho Dominions. Yours sincerely,— Tho Vicarage, F. W. WHIBLEY, Ormondville, Hon. Secretary of Church Army of N.Z. Sept. 24th, 1925.
