On Friday they will go to Kawakawa,' to lunch, and on to Pakuraka and Ohaeawai in the evening, where the settlers have arranged to meet them at a public meeting.

On Monday they go through Broadwood to Kaitaia, where they will be received by that branch, entertained, and a meeting held in the evening.

On Wednesday they will go from Peria to Mangamuku, and will be met there by the steam launch" and go direct to Taheke, where they will be met by the Kaikohe residents and taken to Kaikohe, where- they will probably have a meeting and go on to Northern Wairoa. The rest of the trip is not yet arranged. Probably they will go to Maungaturoto, Warkworth. and back to Auckland. The settlers so far have decided to do all they can to make the trip a success. Fruit will be a strong feature of the trip, and North of Auckland wines. Whangarei and Hikurangi have not arranged their parts, as they have to meet first, but. there will be no bitch with those districts.
