We understand that an endeavour will be made to raise funds for the purchase of uniforms for the boys cadets of the Waio-karaka School.

The tangi now being held at Waitukuri across the gulf, is in honor of Ema Te Aouru, one of the most noted chief tianesses of the district, who died on September 20th in her 61st year. The deceased took an intelligent interest in the improvement of the conditions prevailing amongst the Maoris, and alwayß gladly hailed the advent of anyone who had a comprehensive scheme for the advancement of the natives. She also took great interest in the opening of the Thames goldfields and assisted Mr James Mackay towards that end by showing the advantages to the members of the tribes. In many other ways she materially helped towards the progress of the district and her many friends will regret, to learn of her death.
