Mrs Douglas "Williams arrived by train to-day on a visit to Tahoraiti. Mr W. 0. Rutherford, judge at the recent dog trials, left for the South by the express train to-day. The Tramway Committee set up by the New Plymouth Borough Council last week to consider the decision of the council to take up the tramway proposition as a municipal .undertaking, has decided in favor of that course, and will report to the council accordingly. "What a beautiful sight it is, Mrs Bates, to see your two little boys always together!" the summer boarder exclaimed, in an ecstasy, on the approach of Tommy and Bobby Bates, hand in hand. "Such brotherly love is as rare as it is exquisite." Mrs Bates nodded in pleasant assent. "I tell Ezry," she said, "that they're as insep'r'ble as a pair o' pants." It will be remembered that before he visited Australia, the Hon. J. A. Millar (Minister for Railways) had a conference with the various district traffic managers in regard to a proposal to limit the days upon which small quantities of goods might be despatched to the less important stations. Asked by a reporter as to the present position with reference to the matter, Mr Millar said that further consideration was to be given, to it before any alterations were made. The Vicar of St. John's has been notified by the Bishop of the diocese of certain* alterations in the prayer book. It is desired that on "Whit Sunday, as far as possible, one service at least should be of a memorial nature. On the day of the funeral of the late King (presumably the 20th) special memorial services are to be held in the churches, and the following service is suggested and authorised :—Dead March; service for the l>urial of the dead (with both Psalms, if desired) to the end of the lesson; hymn ; short address ; hymn ; remainder of Burial Service ; hymn; collect for All Saints' Day; second collect for the King (Com. Service); last part of prayer for Churchy militant; blessing; "God save the King!" Talking about strikes. How does this strike you. All cyclists are conversant with the wearing qualities and the superb finish of the Reliable Ruahines, but never before have they been offered to the public at such prices as now. E. A. Ransom is offering them at £8 10s, fully equipped with free wheel, brakes, guards, tools, etc; and a 12 months' guarantee given with each machine. Prices tell the tale, but it's quality that makes the sale. Poultry keepers need not worry about compulsory training. "A. and P." Laying Food, the early morning poultry mash, does not compel but encourages egg production in a natural, rational way; 100 feeds for 10 hens for 10s 6d. Obtainable from Williams and Kettle, Ltd.
