Adelaide NG Club Entertain Young

Territorianc

INVITATIONS were sent to 26 children and a similar number of adults at Christmas-time by the New Guinea Women’s Club of Adelaide, and guests were entertained at the home of Mrs.

W. L. McGowan.

Santa Claus departed from tradition and arrived by motor-cycle but the gifts he distributed were enthusiastically re ceived by the youngsters.

Women members of the club have been living in Adelaide since the evacuation in 1942. Eight members recently re ceived advice that their husbands had teen lost during or after the invasion oi New Britain.

Although the branch of the Comforts Fund run by the club has now closed down, and although a number of mem bers hope to return to the Territory at an early date, a get-together party is being held at the home of Mrs.

McGowan, at the corner of Lydia Street and Anzac Highway, Plympton, Adelaide, on Saturday, February 16. All Terri torians will be welcome.
