Marine Parade Society: Formation of track, 5 men, £5 18s 9d. UNEMPLOYMENT ' COMMITTEE The weekly meeting of the Unemployr ment Committee was held yesterday morning, the Mayor (Mr J. M. Forrester), presiding. Four applications were granted under scheme 4a, as follows:—Omarama, one man, wages 5s per week; Georgetown, one man, 5s per week; Windsor, one man, 5s per week; Herbert, one man, no wages. The Unemployment Board advised that men engaged under scheme 5, who would be otherwise working on the Friday and Saturday during Easter, will be paid for these two days without having to work. A further letter from the board pointed out that the wages for single men engaged in rabbiting under scheme 11 have been reduced from £l to 15s. —Received. The Labour Bureau officer (Mr S. E. M'Gregor) reported that at the end of the previous week there were 316 registered unemployed. Since then 16 new applications were re.ceived, six gent to the Hydro Works, four to camp, nine to other schemes, three were placed in private employment, and 34 names were, removed, leaving a total of 276 at the end of last week. CRICKET The chief feature of the Union Club during the past season was the consistent bowling, and the averages were very good, but the batting, however, was much weaker tha.n in past seasons. The team managed to dismiss most of the other sides for moderately small totals, but was unable to secure a sufficient number of runs' to obtain wins. The fielding in the early part of the season was weak, but improved as the competition progressed, and at the end of the season was quite good. As wicket-keeper, M'Callum was successful and maintained his usual good standard throughout. M'Donald had an off season for both batting and bowling, and Maddigan and Blair were not fav> cured with too much luck with the ball, both having several chances dropped off their bowling. Only one century was registered during the season, this being obtained by Borrows, with 128, and Brown (96) just failed to reach the coveted century. In gaining second place in the competition Union owed its position mainly to consistent team work, and not to individual efforts. The following are the averages for the season:—

Wicket-keeping.—L. M'Callum: Caught 10, stumped .4, number of innings 13, total extras 93, average 7.15. Other Catches.—Robbie, H. Robertson, M'Donald (six), Maddigan (five), Brown (four). Hunter, L. Blair, B. Blair, Granger (two), J. Robertson, Meikle, Tonkin (one). ...... ~ KAKANUI NOTES The Kakanui Tennis Club’s weekly euchre tournament and dance, held in the Athenasum Hall, was largely patronised, and proved very enjoyable. The prizes were won by Mrs Live and Miss Tosh (equal) and Mr W. S. Barnett. Mr J. Been supplied excellent dance music, and Mr E. Jones was M.C., and supper handed round ,by the ladies wag much appreciated. The Kakanui Wesley Church was beautifully decorated with flowers, grain, fruit, etc., on Sunday evening, when Mrs Bridgman conducted the annual harvest thanksgiving service. There was a good congregation, and the produce used in the decorations showed clearly the great variety of crops harvested in this district. Mrs Jones presided at the organ, and Miss Maffey’s Sunday School pupils rendered a hymn in a very pleasing manner. KENYA COLONY Mr W. Blaikie, who is at present on a visit to New Zealand, is a prominent member of the Church of Scotland Mission in Kenya Colony, Africa. He is an old Otago boy, and is head of the Education Department of the church’s activities. Mr Blaikie states that at the principal school, situated a few miles from Nairobi, the average attendance is between 900 and 1000 pupils daily, while there are also schools in other districts. At these schools not only are the elements of education taught, but instruction is also given in many of the arts and crafts, such as carpentry, masonry, etc. Mr Blaikie, who has spent 12 years in Kenya, and is now on furlough visiting relatives in North Otago, will give an address on the work of the mission in St. Paul’s Hall this evening. Mr Blaikie will veturn to Kenya in about two months’ time. BOWLING In the final of the Handicap Singles of the Meadowbank competitions. Hart defeated Blacklock, jun. Blacklock, jun., had two lives, but Hart beat him twice to win the . competition. The entries for the North Otago Easter bowling tournament have come forward fairly freely, including rinks from Christchurch to Invercargill, and with some still in view, it is hoped to have as large an entry as last year. The weather at Oamaru ig invariably good for the Easter holidays, and visitors always look forward to spending a very enjoyable time on the greens. RAM AND EWE FAIR The annual rani and ewe fair, conducted by the North Otago Agricultural and Pastoral Association, will be held at the Show Grounds, Oamaru, to-morrow, commencing about 11.30 a.m. Practically all of the well-known breeders of Otago and Canterbury will be represented, and some of the finest stock in both provinces will be offered for sale. There will also be a strong representation of North Otago breeders, and the bidding should be very keen. •

WOMEN’S INSTITUTE .There was a good atfimdancc of members at the annual meeting of the Awamoa-Alma Women's Institute held at the residence of Mrs S. Taylor. The president (Mrs M'Gimpsey) opened, the meeting with the reading or the institute creed, after which the song was sung by f,he members. After correspondence had been dealt with, the secretary (Miss Hunter) read the annual report, and the treasurer (Miss Martin) presented the balance sheet. On the motion of Mrs Dalziel, the secretary and treasurer were thanked for their work during the year and for the excellent reports presented. The election of officers resulted as follows:—President, Mrs M'Gimpsey; vicepresidents, Mesdames Dalziel and Hall; secretary, Mies Ross; treasurer, Miss Martin; sales table, Mrs Nicholls; press correspondent, Mrs Cowan; roll-caff, Mrs Williams; committee —Mesdames MGirapscy. Taylor, Cowan, Nicholls, Dalziel, Hall. Williams. M'Donald, and Misses Ross, Martin, and Keeting.' The competition for the best article made from a sugar bag was won by Mrs Osborne with a cushion, Mrs M'Beth gaining second place with a knitting bag» and the Misses Keeting third equal with a mat and an apron. The hostesses for the ’afternoon were the Misses J. and J. Miffs. After a happy afternoon the meeting closed with a hearty vote of thanks to Mrs Taylor for the use of her rooms and by the singing of the National Anthem. OAMARU LABOUR PARTY The second annual report of the Oamaru branch of the New Zealand Labour Party, to be presented to s the annual meeting to-night, states that the executive considered the activities of the branch justified and quite satisfactory in spite of the membership being affected by the depression, and by the Government s action in debarring civil servants from taking an active part in politics, this being considered a most unfair attitude in not allowing civil servants the same rights as their fellow citizens. It was imperative that if the branch was to meet with the success desired a higher membership must be maintained, and the executive trusted that supporters would realise this fact and obtain membership tickets each year. Keenness should be shown at all times, and not left for election campaigns, if they were to obtain the full measure of success. The executive recommended to the incoming committee that organising work be taken up immediately in the outlying districts, with a view to forming branches wherever possible. Help had already been promised by local men. During the year the visits to the district by Labour members of Parliament had been very gratifying. These members, who had already given up so much of their home life to fight their cause in the House of Representatives, were ever ready to give their services and address public meetings outside their own electorates, and the branch was greatly indebted to them. The branch was favoured with visits from Messrs Walter Nash, James M'Combs, Fred Jones, Jordan, Langstone, and Richards, M.P.’s, who wellattended meetings in Oamaru. The response hy way of collections at the meetings had been disappointing, and the hope of the executive that the expenses of these meetings would have been covered by the collections had not. been realised. A deputation was received from the Unemployed Workers’ Association to discuss a grievance in connection with the Unemployed Committee, the deputation accepting the explanation given. Executive meetings were held regularly throughout the year, and were well attended, but owing to the lack of attendance the general meetings were not held regularly. Labour members of Parliament were to be congratulated on their efforts in the House of Representatives throughout the year, having kept up the fight in the interests of the bulk of the people.. The balance sheet showed a reduction in the amount in hand, but this, however, was satisfactorily accounted for by the fact that the money was usefully spent in propaganda work. The executive urged upon supporters to make every effort to increase the membership of the branch. The retiring officers and members of the executive thanked members for the support given, and wished the branch every success in the future. RESIDENCE DESTROYED Shortly before noon on Sunday a fourroomed dwelling at Totara was destroyed by fire. The house was owned by Mr James Clarke, of Reidston, and occupied by Mr A. J. Rawson. The fire broke out in the front room, and is, attributed to a defective chimney. The insurance on the building was not available yesterday, but the furniture was insured for £2OO.

BUCKLEY BOWL COMPETITION The annual competition for the Buckley Bowl was held on Saturday afternoon between .the Oamaru Defence Rifle Club, B Company team, and a team from the Waitaki Boys’ High School.
