KING'S COLLEGE.
A most successful re-union of the old boys of King's College, Remuera, tpok place on Saturday at the College. In the afternoon a football match was played at Potter's Paddock between teams representing the Past and Present of the College, the former winning by eight points to nil. At the Invitation of the principal, Mr Graham Bruce, the teams were entertained afterwards at a banquet at the college. Some sixty five old- boys sat down to dinner, and after the toasts of "The Queen" and "Tho Army and Navy" had been honoured, Mr Duncan gave the toast of "The School." The proposer drew attention to the splendid work that the College had done during its short existence, and eulogised the work done by Mr and Mrs Bruce. Mr Bruce proposed the tost of "The Old Boys," and In doing so alluded to Captain Major, Sergeant Dawson, and others who were at the front. He was sure they all regretted that they were not In Auckland to Joiii In the first re-unlon of old boys. On the motion of Mr A. R. Graham, seconded by Mr R. Morrin, it was decided to form an old boys' association, and a temporary committee was established to give effect to the resolution.
