MATAURA NOTES.
(From Our Own Correspondent.) H very thing points to the school excursion to Riverton on Wednesday first being a great success, it is expected that the Mataura Brass Band will accompany the excursion, and that there will he over 7OP present; arrangements are being made to provide boiling water for all-comers, and a 7-rink [.arty of Mataura bowlers will take advantage of the trip to Riverton to play a fourrink game with the Riverton men, and a three-rink game with the Otaulau men on the Riverton green at the seme time. Play will commence at half-past one, and finish before 4 o'clock, and the train, starting a little after five, will give ample time for a ramble on the beach before starling home. The new addition to the school is nearing completion, it is a brick building, very lofty and well adapted for the purpose for which it is intended, and it does credit both to the architect and the contractor, Mr Thorn. The old school building is of wood, and this new building is intended to ho the beginning of a now school in brick.
