MISS ANDERSON HUGHES.
New Zealand White Kibboncrs will no doubt be interested to know that Miss Anderson Hughes, recent oiganiser, and World’s Missionary for the World’s W.C.T.I, has just concluded a very interesting tour through Canada and the United States. Dui ing a visit to Portland, Maine, she was the guest of Mrs Lilian M. N Stevens, National Superintendent, in her lovely home, and, together with Miss Anna Cordon, they are devoting their talents and lives to advance the W.C.T.I’. and all reform work. It was a privilege and inspiration to meet and work with such leading spirits. Miss Hughes visited the home of the late Frances Willard, a place full of happy memories and inspiring associations. In Boston, Mass., she was the guest of Mrs Katherine Lent Stevenson, who was indefatigable in her efforts to make her visit a pleasure, a- well as a success. New York was the last place visited, and here the White Kibboncrs were most urgent in their request that she should return in October, to be present at the World’s Triennial Contention, for they greatly dc-ire to have New Zealand repre*en‘ed. Sailing from New \ork in June, Miss Hughes had a pleasant voyage to Kngland, and since then has been preparing for her marriage to Rev. K. J. Drew, Congregational minister, only son of S. Drew, Esq., of Southampton, which we learnt by cable took place on July -’9th, 1913, in Kvesham, Worcestershire. Her present address is “The Towers,” Cliff Road, Southampton, Kngland.
