ORDER OF ST. JOHN

ANNUAL APPEAL FOR FUNDS HELPING THE FREE AMBULANCE The annual appeal for funds for the St. John Free Ambulance will be held to-day, this year’s campaign being in aid of all branches of the order. The work of the Order of St. John in Wanganui during the past 30 years is well known and recognised by the community.
