KAKARAMEA.

(From Our Own Correspondent.) CROQUET CLUB. • The local Croquet Club opened their season yesterday, when about 20 members and intending members were present. Air. Tong, for his wife, who is , president, briefly declared the courts open, and asked Aliss A. Large to drive the first hall through the hoops. Judging by the enthusiasm shown, the club should have a very successful season. The courts are in very good order, and well sheltered by high hedgeis from all winds. A dainty afternoon tea. was provided by the ladies. GENERAL. Quite a number of Kakaramea lesidents were at Pa tea on Tuesday evening to the welcome social to the vicar (Air. Gibson) and his bride. The Anglican Sunday School was well filled, ami the happy couple, received a large number of useful presents. The district, in common with other parts of South Taranaki, is beginning <; fed the effects of dry weather, and the grass is at a standstill. A nice warm rain would make, a. wonderful difference to the pastures, also to the gardens. The Wanganui Board’s architect met the local S'hool Committee on Saturday, and agreed to the site for the new school. The site chosen is where the old residence used to stand, just to the west of the present residence, the architect reckoned the carpenters would be.at work on the new school in about 10 days.

M iss Olsen, the newly-appointed’ assistant, commenced her duties on Afondav last.
