Carries On

THE New Guinea Women’s Club of Syd ney, although it no longer functions as a patriotic organisation, still car ries on as a social club and continues its hospital work and to help victims of the Rabaul invasion.

Since the general return to New Guinea, membership has become much smaller and it is correspondingly harder

for those remaining to raise money for the work to which they feel committed and which they desire to do. However, small functions are arranged, from time to time, for these purposes and the pro ceeds used in this way. The club has only recently resumed its activities after the summer recess, but a wreath in memory of the late Mrs. Gladys Baker was placed on the Cenotaph on February 20.

Visitors to Sydney are always welcome at the Thursday morning gatherings of members at the club rooms, in the Fem inist Club, 77 King Street, Sydney. An evening social will also be held on Fri day, March 28, in the same rooms. All New Guinea residents, former and pre sent day, are invited to go along at 8 o’clock to meet old friends.
