The incoming executive was instructed to investigate ways and means of securing improved amenities for the district, and to report to the next general meeting. The election of officers resulted: : — .President, Mr. W. P. Carman; vicepresident, Mr. 11. H. Hurst; lion, secretary, Mrs. 11. W. Bennett; hon. treasurer, Mr. E. C. Spencer; committee, Messrs. K.
