All present were enthusiastic in relation to the forthcoming activities of the Club, and with the young people taking interest, success is assured for the Club's annual sports meeting. Mrs. W. H. Davies, Otorohanga, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. Jones, Takiri Road, left last week for her home, after being on a visit to her parents for some weeks. Mrs. Davies was accompanied by her two children, David and Bonnie. Local farmers are taking advantage of every hour of fine weather that has been enjoyed here during the last week or so, in the direction of needed work on the paddocks. Docking has started, and with all the losses experienced a fair percentage of lambs is expected from the tally. The talk of a silver lining, as far as primary products are concerned, is being keenly discussed.
