TWELFTH OF JULY

ORANGEMEN CELEBRATE THE BATTLE OF THE BOYNE The Battle of the Boyne, the anniversary of which falls due to-morrow, was celebrated by the No. 2 District Grand Orange Lodge yesterday afternoon. The celebrations took the form of a procession and divine service, several hundred Orangemen, headed by the Auckland Pipe Band, forming up at the Orange Hall in Newton Road and marching down Symonds Street to the Tivoli Theatre, where the service was held. At the theatre a guard of honour was formed by the women of the lodge. The service was conducted by the Rev. A. A. Alurray, who preached to a large congregation on the subject of, “Is Roman Catholicism Christianity?” The celebrations will be continued to-morrow evening, when the .annual gathering will be held in the Oreoige Hall. “WHERE IS THAT COTTON ?” It is so fatally easy for the reel you are using to get hidden under the piles of mending and scraps of material that encumber a busy woman’s sewing table. An excellent idea is to attach a thin curtain rod with brackets to the under edge of the sewing table and keep your reels of cotton on it. They are' always handy, and are far less likely to be borrowed by members of the family with marauding tendencies. If when sewing the needle becomes sticky rub it through the hair once or twice and it will slip through the material quite easily.
