RANGITIKEI NOTES.

(From Our Own Correspondent.) MARTON, Thursday. Mr. H. 0. Gronn, who has for the past 20 years carried on amoit successful carrying business, yesterday disposed of Msinierest therein to Messrs. Moore and Casey, the former being at present the popular manager of the ftew_ Zealand Express Company in Wanganui. We understand that Mr. Jamesi Smith, settler, of Tahape, will be a ■candidate for the sea* on the Education Board, rendered vacant by the resignation! of Mr. Adams, of Patea. Mr. Smith has had a life-long experience of matters educational, and for years strenuously advocated freedom of classification and others reforms i - j-sntly ejected in our education system. He is of opinion that the syllabuj of irisfcniction should be'stil further modified in the direction of giving -the pupils a better knowledge of the Jinglish language and literature, so as to fit them nob only for the business of life, but also for the everincreasing duties and responsibilities of citizensh,.;p. The fact of has interests being identified with the newly-settled districts as well, and his work on the County Oouncd'l, should commend has candidature to the support of the coun-' .try committees, which at present are practically unrepresented on the Board. Mr. F. C. Remington was successful at the second year term examination by the Victoria College. • The building trada is particularly brisk. Some twenty places are e.'bher m course of erection or contemplated wathang a month or so. The value of suburban sections is also on the increase, and trade was never better than at the present time.
