In connection with the Kihikihi Tennis Club a social and dance will be held at the Kihikihi Town. Hall on Wednesday evening. A large attendance is anticipated. A wage of 6s 2d per hour was stated in the Te Awamutu Court yesterday to be the wage of a skilled motor engineer in this town. A social and musical evening followed by a dance, in connection with !St. John's will be held at the Town Hall on Wednesday evening at 8 o'clock. An attractive programme will be presented. The recently re-organised volunteer Fire Brigade at Te Awamutu is settling down to work in real earnest and already very successful practice parades have been held. The first undertaking was naturally the reclassification and cleaning of the equipment and this,- though entailing a good deal of what might be termed manual labour, has been done voluntarily by the brigadesmen. Next week the fire reel is to be painted—also by voluntary labour—and the brigade will then be able to turn out in spick and span condition. The hose has been tested and one-thousand feet of it has been wound on to the reel in readiness for emergency.
