PAPAROA.

Pome time has elapsed since we have heard of any of the merry quips and cranks perpetrated by the flower-bag clad, but salubrious .members of this spot however, ' better late than never.'. .Have the 'sparks that fly from the flaming forge' ceased to charm the fair, or rather, dark A.C.. or have the somewhat vigorous charms of the ' recently converted ' proved too strong for he of the brawny arm, who goes (not) on Sunday to the church.. .Why has C.C. sought ' fresh fields and pastures new V . .Has H.W. forgotten the way to the ' cliff-? and crags,' or is he only waiting for the tennis season to re-opeu?. .It is to be hoped that L.N. .and that very nice young man will not desert the seclusion of T t's paddock ou a Sunday evening, as the ' gentle murmurings and soft nothings ' so tenderly whispered are the cause of much harmless mirth to the community. I wonder what his other girl would think of these little nicpics ? . . There was a superfluous amount of milk and honey expendedin the speeches at the benefit concert to our old Dominie T.W., but we wonder how he liked being spoken of a 'dog who has had his day.' We are of opinion that the old boy rather fancies that notwithstanding his long term of arduous labour in the public interest, he is now gonig to ' blossom forth 'as our ' David,' against an imaginary ' Goliath,' so my advice is ' Cave Cauem.' . /We must congratulrte W.J.G. of homestead fame, on the improvement in his personal appearance by the addition of a hirsute appendage on his upper lip. Is it auother victory for 'restorer?'
