Mrs. Southorn was welcomed by the Rev. J. C. Knight Anstey who remarked on the interest that she had always takon in public affairs and in matters affecting the Ser- vice men. He said that the new Home was nearly finished, and it was hoped to hold the official opening in January next.

The Home, Mr. Anstey added, would be a "real Home" for Ser- vice men.

Opening Ceremony In declaring the sale open, Mrs. Southorn said:

It forges links, too, between the Services and the Civilians which are valuable Empire bonds. trust that this Bazaar, into which much thought and tine has been put, will prove a great success, and that all who have been pre vented from attending it will send their contribution towards the $40,000 still needed for the Institute.
