MANGAWAI

Great speculation at last Saturday night's dance as to whether the O M was there

...Did M B and A D find the water they were looking for outside the hall?. ."What made W W look so sulky ? Was it because C J danced too often with his best girl?.. A J says she does not care if the O M does put her in the O ..Who are the ladies on the flat who think their screaming good singing?. .What did D It cross the" river for on Sunday ? Was it to see MS?. .Why were the hotel girls so anxious to see the O ? Did you think the O M had forgotten you ?. . S H and WTS seemed to be having a merry time at the dance on Saturday night What was the cause of the merriment, boys ?.. C J and M B were pHii g on the agony coming home from the dance... What keeps C W from the Saturday night dances ? Is it M Bat the store?.. Great excitement meeting at the Hakaru lately, as someone's horse was supposed to be dying, and a vet's advice from town was deemed necessary. After a few days' weeping and wailiDghe finally arrived, and I hope he will soon set matters straight. .Our old friend ' Geraldine ' has been putting in a lot of time about the Hakaru lately. I wonder what for ? It is supposed he is gaining a name as a painter. However, he had better not go home this week, as he would have to play gooseberry . .Mangawai girls will please to be careful at the football match and dance on Saturday, as the O M intends being there with pencil and notebook.
