MEMORIAL ARCH.
GATEWAY AT HIGH SCHOOL. Visitors to the Otago Boys’ High Sclioo 1 break-up ceremony to-day will have an opportunity of viewing the two bronze digures which have now been placed on the memorial arch of the main gateway. One of these represents an infantryman and the other a cavalryman, the former of which wears the badge of the Otago Regiment and the latter that of the Otago Hussars. These were erected with funds raised by the Old Boys' Association. The designer of the arch, Mr L. U. Coombs, was given the task of completing the work, and the order for the bronzes was placed with Messrs W. Moris and Co., London, who supplied the artist. The figures are outstanding works of art, standing 42 inches in height They were placed in the niches provided for them yesterday by Mr W. M’Lellan. A clock was placed in the Fulton Building yesterday in memory of Dr 11. V, Fulton.
