OHAWE.

(From Our Own Correspondent.) The weatelir during the last week ll'ne weather during 'the last week heavy seas up till Saturday Jast. This," witui tue rise in the \Yaingongoro River, did considerable damage at tne llaumiro boat shed, the concrete landing, .stage being completely demolished: Active steps are in hand to reconstruct tlie sit age. The hauling winch at Hie boat shed is now in position, and will be given a test in the hear future. The fishing fleet was not out dining the last? week owing to weather conditions. Tne steps leading from the bathing sheds to the beacn, owing to the heavy seas, have washed out at the bottom, leaving a drop of five or six feet from the last step." 'This requires immediate attention before further damage is done. The cliff facing the Domain is again bearing a dangerous appearance; Several large slips took place during the week. The beach is bearing a nice sandy appearance on both sides of the river at low tide. Both the Pavtea and Kaupokonui Beach Improvement Funds are receiving assistance 1 from outside bodies, and it is hoped that* Hawera citizens will similarly give their support to Ohawe, as it is the intention of the Improvement Committee (funds being available) to carry out : several suggestions to make things comfortable and pleasurable for visitors next season at Oliawe. beach. A concert bv the Hawera Citizens’ Band in the Ohawe Domain some suitable Sunday is suggested, the proceeds to go to the improvement fund. This would be heartily supported by all frequenters of the beach during the season. Airs. Little, of the Ohawe store, who lias been on a. visit to her parents at Alarton, returned home yesterday.
