Co' 1ter’s paddock for Ihe district’s Armistice Day picnic, and thanks to the work done by the secretary, Mr. Cox (head teacher at the Fairburn school) and his committee, all enjoyed the thoroughly successful function. A short address was given by the Rev. Mr. Martin, and two minutes’ silence was observed. A programme of events for school children, tugs-of-war between Maoris and Europeans and other events completed an enjoyable day.
