THE second annual meeting of the New Guinea Women’s Association was held in Melbourne on November 6.
The membership of the Association is not large, but £592 was raised for the year. Of this, a donation of £2OO was made to the Red Cross Prisoners of War Fund, £75 was contributed to the Com forts Fund, and £25 to the Mission to Seamen. Another donation of £2l assisted two young Chinese girls, former residents of Rabaul. In addition, members pre pared 350 parcels for New Guinea men on active service and knitted more than 100 pairs of socks and stockings to include with comforts such as books and tobacco. Another 60 pairs of socks were knitted for the Comforts Fund.
