The room at the school was bright with spring flowers, and during the morning much interest was shown in the children, who were seen at work and at play. Mrs. C. E. Maguire presented the guest of honour with a bouquet of carnations, and in a brief spoech of welcome said how pleased they were to sec Lady Myers back in Auckland. Tho committee was trying to carry on the work which tho late Sir Arthur Myers had started, and sho thought that what was being done now would help to do away eventually with the children's Courts.
