A Partner whist drive was held in the Schoolroom on Saturday last and was very well attended. It had been arranged to meet the expenses incurred by the day school children at their forthcoming annual outing.

New Boots—Through the splendid generosity of the American and Canadian Red Cross Societies many of the scholars attending the Day School have been provided with Wellington boots. The scholars, to show their appreciation of the gifts, have contributed to the funds of the two societies through the W.V.S., who have the distribution in hand.

School Meals—On Monday the first hot dinners were provided by the N.C.C. for the children of the C of E Day School. They are brought in special containers from the Rushden School Canteen, and a long-felt want has now been gratified. Miss Byatt, County Supervisor, and her assistant personally attended to serve the dinner on Monday. The Rev C Ayton Williams was present to represent the Managers and personally thanked Miss Byatt for making the necessary arrangements, also congratulating her on the excellent meal provided.
