CLARET CUP INCIDENT.

.'NOT A JUVENILE GATHERING. (By Telegraph —Press Association.) WANGANUI, Saturday. 'ln connection with the claret cup controversy, exception is taken by the ..Ladies’ Committee to the Press Association description of the function as “a Juvenile gathering.” The guests include first the single young people of -.the town over the age of 18 pears; secondly, all returned soldiers, their wives and mothers; thirdly, South Afriear&T'ierans and their wives; fourthly, Maori War veterans and their wives. To .describe such a function as a juvenile gathering seems, lacking in precision. ( A Association message from Wang:®|| stated that a deputation of -temperance workers waited upon the Ladies’ Committee, who have charge of the catering of a function in connection with the visit of the Prince of Wales, and asked that the claret be cut out as a beverage. The function was described as “a juvenile gathering” in -the telegram.)
