SERVICE CLUBS

Generous Hampers Received From Country

The wintry spell of weather experienced in Wellington last week made the A.N.A. Flub a busy centre, as men of the Services used this cosy retreat to the full. A generous friend is paying for the renovation of a couch and two chairs. Still more couches and comfortable chairs are urgently needed, and the executive would be very grateful for the gift of these.

The cafeteria was particularly busy during the week and at the weekend, and the catering committee is grateful to those generous people so far from Wellington who assist them in their work by sending provisions. Hampers were received from the following: — A recently-formed committee of Marton women, per Mrs. Duncan Simpson ; Masterton Country Women’s Club, per Mrs. Donald James;- Mangapakeha branch, W.D.F.U., Masterton; dona tion from Air Force relations, Wanganui, per Mrs. Gifford Moore ; carton home-made jam, Mrs. E. B. Gordon, Marton. Assistance in the cafeteria has been given by a group of Lower Hutt women, members of the Victoria League, English-Speaking Union. A.N.A. helpers, Air Force relations, and A.N.A. girls’ auxiliary.

The dances are always popular and well attended, and this weekend were in* the charge of Misses Mildred Cardale, Diana Brodie, Barbara Phelan, and Rita Thomson, members of the girls’ auxiliary.
