Those who paint pictures of Parliament ns a kind of political bear-garden can have very littlo idea of the real work that is done or of the way in which it is done. The earnestness and sincerity of all parties have impressed me.” Her many friends in the Feilding district will greatly regret the passing at the YVhakatane hospital on September 4 of Mrs J. Power, eldest daughter of Mr YV. B. Johnson and tho late Mrs Johnson, Moncton street, Feilding. Mrs Power, who spent the greater part, of her girlhood at Makino and Bunnythorpc, and was for a time on tho nursing staff of the Feilding private hospital, was of a warm-hearted and generous disposition and was much loved by all who came into contact, with her. Deceased, who had been ill f o y a considerable time, leaves besides her husband five little daughters to mourn her loss.
