CHRISTCHURCH
Dear Pee. June 12. Aucklanders must have felt gratified
had they heard the niiinlier of wishes expressed in Christchurch yesterday that you were having a tine day for the landing of the Royal guests. There was a general stir and air of expectancy and excitement even at this distance, many people watching the postoffice clock and waiting for the dags to be unfurled, others round Victoria Square, where the guns were to be fired. The decorations are going on apace. I hear we are to be called “the rag shop,” owing to so much of the decorating depending on coloured festoons.
DOLLY VALE.
