A Press wire from Chi-Utohuivh stiW that Oivoi and Balaclava have he .Mi scratched for all engagements at the Canterbury summer ui-etiiv/. Tho Taranaki .looker C'nih committee .has decided to have improvements effected in oomvMion with the public diniiiff-room in time for (he autumn meetincr. Tile proposed alterations will give a considerable amount of additional space—about Hit by 40ft in the ptib''>. luncheon room, and a new entrance will also be made at the southern end of the <?rands(an<l, thus ohviatin2 the noeoss"ilv of using (ho slops -il-iate in .the centre of the Aland bv which acco-s is now gained to the voom.

Savs ilu! Waugamii Herald: The •Viioiicnn General Synod lias sok up a committee to take stops to at once constitute a. now aiocoso. There seems to he some reason why the Wanganm dis•tvict should he constituted part of the proposed new diocese. In fact, the amalgamation of Wunganui and Taranaki in cither than church matters would probably result in as much advantage to Waugamii as if it remained part of Wellington, perhaps more. Heing at the lextromc end of Hi" Wellington Provincial District. Wangnmii-has numerous •disadvantages. In the rogi dratio;i of deeds', for 'example, there are numerous irritating delays, and in many other instances Vangamii*s interests nave to 'wait on those of the metropolitan 'centre, ov the districts -nearer to it. The area of Taranaki is, roughly, about 3700 square miles, ami that of Wellington 10.1)00 square miles, which seems a considerable disproportion, if about 3000 sf|uavo miles were cut o!V the north'ern end of Wellington and added to Taranaki the area would be: Taranaki. 0700 square m"les: Wellin.L'tmi. 7COO square miles. Two handv-si/cd provincial districts would 1... (he result., instead of one sma!' and one unwieldy district a- now. Distances from headquarters wouhl be redn.-ed.. tiniP, trouble, and inconvenience would be saved, whether in -hmvh work, or Oovernment work, ov anv other work. There is alre;vlc some overlapping of the Wanjnnni :rid Taranaki districts, ns in the'ease of (he Koad- Department and the Fduoaihm Hoards. There is no need for Wanganni or Sew Plymouth or any other place to claim the v'aht of being the provimial centre. but. there do seem some irood reasons for an alterintion of boundaries. !
