The games were thoroughly enjoyed, aud Patea returned home knowing that a friendly match between a team of ten of other Patea and Kltliani ladies had been won by Patea. Following are the results, the pairs playing for the Ta pl in Cup defended by Eltham ladies, who are mentioned first:— Mrs Casey lost to Aliss Gibson; Mrs Quin beat Airs Mcßae: Airs Norton beat Afiss N. Hurley; Aliss McGarry lost to Aliss Harris; Aliss Tayior beat Aliss Bourke; Aliss Symes beat Aire Baker. Ell ham 4 games, Patea 2 games.

Arbor Day was celebrated by the elder school children on Friday, when 69 trees were planted along one side of the road fronting the Domain, which is planned to form an avenue leading to the Domain gates. The three coastal boats which have been in port for the last few days of last week were able to leave for Wellington yesterday fully loaded, the three vessels being m.v. Inaha, m.v. Hawera, and m.v.
