A splendid display of fruit, vegetables, water melons, flowers etc. suited the occasion, and a splendid spirit of thanksgiving was prevalent throughout the service. The Rev. A. Johnston occupied the pulpit, his theme throughout the service being one of thanksgiving to God the Creator, and challenged people to show that spirit of friendliness to others who are not so fortunate. On Monday evening a social, combined with the auction of the produce, was held in the Parish Hall and was enjoyed by all, the evening being passed in games and competitions. As a sign of the times, good prices were realised for the produce. CATHOLIC CHURCH Kaitaia —Mass 7 a.m. daily Wednesday 18th —7.15 p.m. Station of the Cross. Awanui—Friday 20th 7.15 p m.
