LIQUOR ADVERTISEMENTS.
At a meeting of the Waiuku Union, held on May Ist, with Mrs Speer presiding:. the Secretary was instructed to write a letter of sympathy to Mrs Buttimore, who is in hospital. Mrs Speer said that she had written to Mrs Phillips, the President of the Auckland District Women’s Institute, protesting against the three liquor advertisements which were in the .Journal of the Women's Institute before Christmas. It was brought up at the Federation meeting, hut there is still one liquor advertisement in the Journal for April. We feel that advertisements of this nature are an infringement of the principles of the Women's Institute. It is intolerable to VV.C.T.I'. members who are also members of the Women’s Institute. It was decided that Mrs Speer should bring up the matter at the Waiuku institute meeting, to try and get a remit sent into the Federation Executive meeting in June, to remove liquor advertisements from the pages of our journal. Three more members promised to do the same at their Institute meetings at Aka Aka, Otana, and Koht Koho
