SODA WATER GEYSER
NEW CATCHMENT BASIN DELAY IN CONSTRUCTION [by telegraph —OWN correspondent] TE AROHA, Wednesday Owing to pressure of work the Public Works Department is unable at present to construct a catchment basin and storage tank for the To Aroha geyser. A month ago it was hoped the work would bo completed before Christmas to enable visitors to tho town to see the novelty of the Dominion's onlj' soda water geyser in action. The Government tourist officer, Mr. E. Wing, has made an alternative arrangement to have the geyser playing during the afternoon on all important holiday dates during the Christmas and New Year season. Steps will also be taken to improve the surroundings and make them more attractive than at present. It is expected the concrete catchment basin will be completed by Easter.
