Apirana won the most games at euchre, and Mrs. R. Rewiti and Mr. Jack Kcwiti won tne statue dance.

Thursday night’s downpour was responsible for heavy flooding in the Tutaenui stream, and for some hours on Friday morning the main road, opposite the Rangitlkei dairy factory was flooded to a depth of two feet, the flood waters completely encircling the factory residence and swirling dangerously near the front door. A pig farm some distance up the road was half covered with flood water, but fortunately none of the animals were in the danger zone. Mrs. C. B. Swairison, of Bulls, was a prize winner in two sections of the decorative class at the Marton bulb show on Thursday. Mrs. E. Oaldow also took prizes with anemones at the show.
