PADDY’S MARKET.

Numbers of people are asking the question as to just what is a “Paddy's Market,” and the answer is not altogether an easy one in all respects. In a few words, it is a general market to which everyone congregates, bringing their own wares with them, setting up their stall, disposing of their goods, and in turn "buying iron! others. Just what will be on the market depends entirely on those who “come to market.'”

In the Park Carnival week, of qourse there will bo certain stalls arranged, but no one need hesitate to make a stall for thepselves, and every stall may, for that matter he a jumble stall. The more stalls, the merrier will bo tho fun, and the fuller the park coffers at the end of the effort.

It is hoped that the suburbs of New Plymouth and the outlying districts will take this up and form committees amongst themselves, arranging to run a district stall, and so develop a little healthy rivalry between each other. . Any information regarding the effort in any particular direction may be had from the secretary of the Park Board (Mr, P. E. Stainton) or Mrs. C. H. Burgess (oy during the latter’s absent this week, from Mr. A. R. Standisb).
