Ng Memorial Scholarship

Letter to the Editor I WAS interested to read that the New Guinea Womens’ Club of Sydney, at an extraordinary general meeting, had decided against participating in exten sion of the New Guinea Memorial Scholarship Appeal to New South Wales.

It should be known that the originators of the Memorial Scholarship Fund in Melbourne are quite hanpy in the result of their efforts and are not appealing for more funds. A Memorial Scholar ship has been established and will be for all time a reminder to all who benefit from it of the men it honours.

To use a colloquialism, it would be a pity to “flog a tired horse” and try to extract more donations from the very generous folk who supported the appeal

previously.

In 1950, four children will be benefiting from the fund.

I am etc.
