Haseldean and Mr. K. Brown chose their respective teams, and a very good game was played. The remainder of the evening was filled up with dancing and singing; Mrs. Sharp, of North Oruawharo, acting as musioian. Great credit is due to all the originators of the entertainment.

It is said that the light of a match, will I frighten a wolf ; but a lovo match sometimes fails to keep tho wolf from the door.
