The occupants of the car escaped with a shaking. Wednesday evening, February 23, will be ’’children’s night” at the pictures in the Town Hall, Bulls. The proprietor, Mr G. G. Goebel, has extended an invitation to all children attending the Bulls, Ohakea, Parewanui, Glyneath, Greatford and Clydesdale schools, to be present. The annual Bulls School picnic will take place at Aloana-Road to-morrow, and the kiddies, and grown-ups as well are looking forward to fine weather on that date. Hot water will be supplied. Two strong swimmers have been appointed to control the life-saving apparatus so the holiday should be devoid of any untoward happenings. A full sports programme has been arranged. As the business people are holding a public holiday there should be a large gathering at the picnic.
