Uawa School Site : The Secretary of the Hawke’s Bav Education Board made anapplication for block 6, 5 acres, township nf Uawa, for a school site, marked on the map as “ municipal endowment.” The Assistant-Surveyor-General reported against the application, but stated that a subdivision of block 12, Uawa township, had been made of one acre sections, and that one of two acres might be offered to the Education Board for a school site.

In consequence the dressing was removed, and on its placa were made during the daytime repeated irrigations with Eucalyptic Extract. The offensive foeter disappeared very soon, the fever abated within a few days, and the patient recovered after the lapse of several weeks. In this instance we must not lose sight of the fact that the latter treatment Saved the patient's life.”— [Advt.j
