Since the organisation of the new defence scheme an officers' mess has been instituted at the Barracks on 'Mount Cook. Instead of those- officers who are on the permanent staff boarding in various" parts of the town' they are now catered for at the headquarters. "I notice," said Sir Joseph Ward to a Christen urch interviewer, "that there has been a very marked absence of information sent through the Press Association concerning some of the more important receptions extended to me by the public, as well as regarding my views upon important matters that have been referred to by the Leader of the Opposition, and to which I replied.

I feel quite confident, notwithstanding the attempt made to create impressions to the contrary, that in the South the Government is going to more than hold its own at the forthcoming General Elections."
