REEFTON NOTES
'Our Own Correspondent.)
REEFTON, March 26.
Owing to showery weather the tennis tournament organised by the Reefton Club on Saturday was not completed, only some half dozen games being played to a finish.
Some delay was caused to motor traffic on Friday evening and Saturday morning by fallen trees on the Saddle on the Main Grey Road having been brought down by the bush fires in that vicinity on Friday afternoon and evening. Traffic was resumed about 8.30 a.m. on Saturday morning. Bush fires on Friday destroyed three or four chains of tramway at Morris and Co.’s mill’at Larry’s Creek. Sister Lochore, secretary to ,the British and Foreign Bible Society, Wellington, spoke of the work and aims of the Society at Knox Church and Wesley Church on Sunday. The County authorities to give the water employees a rest turned the watei' on for the first time for the week end. The reservoir dam dropped in that period some two feet. Evidently some waste is still occurring to cause such a large decrease in the period.
