Compton, M.A., invited a number of the leading citizens of Carterton and district to' a garden party. The visitors inspected the workshops, .which include cabinet and. shoemaking, and farm work, in which the boys are instructed. The visitors, after going over the college, assembled in the hall, decorated for the occasion, where a programme of vocal and instrumental items was gone through. The prizes were then distributed by Sirs. Johnston, and a very interesting address was delivered by the Yen. Archdeacon Fancourt, of Wellington. He expressed great pleasure at 'seeing the progress the college had made. The good tone and discipline ■were a prominent feature. It was an ideal training institution for the Maori youth, mentally, morally and physically. In his opinion the future of the college •was guaranteed. The Mayor, in proposing a hearty vote of thanks to the Rev. S. G-. Compton, which was carried with acclamation, endorsed the sentiments of 1 previous speakers. Ware Waitai, an exMaori master of Te Ante College, re- ' sponded on behalf of the boys. The National Anthem brought the interesting programme to a close.
