WHERE SHE FAILS. There aie many tilings a {j;irl can do, If she's a genuine suffragette through and through; But she fails—and the records show it clear— Again and again, as an auctioneer, And never can learn to say with ease, " Now, gentlemen, make me an offer, please."

Children will be admitted FREE to the Show on Wrednesd?y. Jure sth, only. JUST HUMAN. Visitors said a lot of nice things about the Waikato Winter Show last year. Perhaps there was some flattery mixed in, but being just human we liked it, and thank our friends for 11 the good things they have said. NOT THE SAME OLD THING. While ihe management always plans to make the Waikato Winter Show essentially a great exhibition of the progress of agriculture in the district, it has never lost sight th-t "a little nonsense cr relaxation now and then, is relished by the best of men" much entertainment but what there is must be good. This year the Association is arranging a number of special attractions, so you should come. Shake off dull care, renew old acquaintances, and mingle with the good natured crowd. POULTRY EXHIBIT. The Poultry Exhibit at the Wfikato Winter Show is famous throughout the country, and owners of birds are duly roud if they are successful in winning mours. The success and the reputation gained by this Department is largely due to the efforts of Mr Wm. Runciman, who, with a number of wilbng assistants has handled this branch of the Waikato's big Show for many years past. WHAT PAPA ALWAYS SAYS. A little girl had an invitation to a 6 ' o'clock dinner. Her mother naturally gave her a few instructions in regard to table etiquette. When she got home her mother asked her how she got along. Mother, I do not know; when the lady passed the pie I took it and ate it, and said to her, that is a very j ..• :_j._j >) TU_ UJ- „„.M uTir:ii you have another piece?" and I said, "No, I thank you, I hate had one Siece." But you must have another." o I took another and remarked it was a very nice pie indeed." The lady passed it to me a third time, and mother you did not tell me whst to say when it was passed the third time. "Well daughter, what did you say?" I said what papa always says, "Take the damn thipg away." Let me live in a house by the side of | the road, Where the race of men go by, The men who are good and the men who are "Bad, As good and as bad as I.

Northern Roller Milling Company, To my dear people of the Waikato. T has always been my desire that you should be Healthy, Wealthy, and Wise as the Settlers' life is one that demands the foregoing factors, which 11 J are derived from the free use of "CHAMPION" MUSCLE RAISER FLOUR and "STANDARD" OATMEAL and ROLLED OATS, and that is the reason why the Waikato is so prosperous to-day. Even the Canterbury farmers testify to " Champion's " prowess (vide Christchurch Press, 19th April, 1915.) Mr. P. Virtue, Manager of the Northern Roller Milling Company, Auckland, it will have been observed from announcements in "The Press," has always been prominent in the wheat-growing question. His recent correspondence with the Minister for Agriculture, published in this paper, suggested a price growers should get for wheat which the decision at the subsequent conference of farmers with the Minister proved was in the right direction. On Tuesday last Mr. Virtue received from Mr. J. Talbot, who is chairman of the Farmers' Union and of the South Canterbury Farmers' Co-op. Association, the following telegram: * " Appreciate your able and spirited efforts in wheat-growing interest." CRESCIT SUB POUDERE VIRTUS. (Virtue increases under an imposed weight or burden.) I have spoken, v., Auckland.
