MANAIA.

‘ (From Our Own Correspondent. I SCOUT CAAIP. AT KAUPOKONUr. The Alanaia scouts broke camp on Saturday. Commencing on January 2 they were in camp' eleven days and spent a very enjoyable time. The boys look all the better fox; living in the open, cooking and looking after themselves, and receiving- the 'benefit of swimming, reaming and games. There .were no casualties of a serious nature, and the camp was free from sickness. It is at least hoped that the many things they learned, will prove of great use and value to them. CRICKET.
