The only citizen of New Plymouth to receive Mr Ward when he reached that important centre early on Friday morning last was a small telegraph messenger, armed with a very large telegram, which he handed to the Treasurer as he at the same time doffed his hat, conscious of the importance of the moment. There was a good attendance at the Lecture Hall of the Education Board offices last week, when Mr Kitson delivered a lecture on “ Public speakers from the shorthand writer’s point of view.” The chair was occupied by Mr W. H. Warren. As was expected, the lecture proved very -interesting and highty instructive. The lecturer, in the course of his remarks, illustrated' the mannerisms of various public speakers, and the sympathy that has at all times existed between the occupants of the public platform and the reporting fraternity. At the close of the address hearty votes of thanks were given to the lecturer and the chairman.
