MOHAKA (H. B.) MATTERS
G-reat excitement over the late football match. Our Mohaka boys took a mean advantage of the 1 ever victorious.' Little Mac played well, and did his duty. . The Magpie is on the hunt 5 poor Charlie had better look out. Like the dove, she returns to poor old Jack. What kept the three larrikins in Wairoa ? Perhaps the dusky individuals can tell. Uncle George take warning, and remove little Bricktop. His face will soon begin to charm the passers-by if the colour increases. Who stole the chestnut filly ? Old M. still does the heavy. When will the helmet change ? The Magpie mourns openly the departure of the leather breeches. Little Yen. is very quiet of late. Is Mac the cause ? Ask the fair Magpie not to blush so when talking to the opposite sex. The old buster soon intends going for a trip to Australia in the ferry punt. Burly Bob now keeps the verandah of the upper pub warm. Is the ferry an excuse ? Fair Maggie says that Yen had better not let her see her talking to gentle Mac. Is she jealous ? How does the local peeler feel now ? The V. cadet still follows the dark beauties. He'd better beware. Fair Mag and little Yen took the shine out of the Wairoa girls at the football match. The fair one still keeps up a youthful appearance, in the hope of beauty's return. Why did Bob remain in Wairoa, and not go tip with Mi3s H. ? Was he on the alert for a dark beauty ? Oh, fie, Bob ! Little Yen is true to her allegiance to the three brothers of the upper pub. Why does Rangiriri keep at home ? Is he still frightened of the widow ? ' Faint heart,' etc. The fair one still hopes on. Willows are plentiful. Long John and Bob are yet true to the continent girls, but what will the black ladies say ?
