AMONG the passengers due in Melbourne tomorrow in the Mariposa is Sister E. M. Pickworth, who. following active service with the A.I.F., was for several years at the Anzac Hostel, North Road, Brighton. For 11 years she has been following her calling in the United States. Every Christmas while Sister Pickworth has been abroad the Digger patients at the Anzac Hostel have sent her a message of remembrance.
