HUIRANGI FORESTERS’ LODGE

MUCH MEASLES AMONG CHILDREN.

SETTLER’S MOTOR-CAR BURNED.

There was a large attendance at the Huirangi old-time and modem dance on Monday under the auspices of the Foresters’ Lodge. There were nine tables of euchre in charge of Messrs. E. Andrews and J. Cousins. The prizewinners were: Men, Mr. W. St. George 1, Mr. Richards 2 (after a tie with Mr. Russel); ladies, Mrs Faigin 1, Mrs. L. Tate 2. Music was supplied by Rowe’s orchestra, and extras by Miss Gardiner, New Plymouth. Mr. G. Petersen was master of ceremonies. A Monte Carlo was won by Miss Willis and Mr. Pretty, and a bobbing waltz by Miss Bint and Mr. Veale. The prize for the man first on the floor the most during the evening was won by Mr. L. Cole. Owing to the prevalence of measles in the district the attendance at the school is much affected, and the fancy dress dance which was to have taken place early next month has been postponed. While, Messrs. H. and R. Mace were returning from Mr. Blackhall’s sale recently they had the misfortune to have their car -burst into flames and in a few minutes it was a total wreck. Miss M.
