Tho Dominion president (Airs Paterson), • o,f Pahiatua, was present, and gave an interesting address on institute matters. Points prizes for the past year were awarded to Aliss Tfickcr, Aliss Wicks, and Airs C. Button. “Dumb Acting” proved a very amusing competition, and Airs C. Button was adjudged the winner. The entertainment included a musical monologue by Airs Alarumaru, and songs by Alesdames R. G. Cooper and J. S. Tricker.
