The weak-nerved patrons had been warned to stay home. So they were •here to a man. There are many scenes in the. film that will both literaPy and figuratively prompt you to clutch at your neighbour’s •closest arm as the screen very nearly devours you. “Frankenstein” will bo finally staged this evening. RANGITIKEI RUGBY POSITION OF TEAMS. The championship tables in all grades to date show Old Boys to be tho most successful team thus far. They aro leading in tho senior and junior grades while in the third grade they aro equal with Huntervillc at the head of the list. As will be seen the senior match between Rata and Old Boys at Rata on Saturday will have a decided bearing on the championship.

Tho senior game between Old Roys and Rata, at Rata, on Satur-lnv will be a Raymond Cup fixture. Last year when Rata played At Marton they sportingly brought tho cup in with them and now Old Boys are returning the compliment. CRICKET ASSOCIATION LEAP-YEAR BALL. The hostesses, Mosdames J. H. O.
