Victoria School for Maori Girls.

With a view of augmenting the funds being raised for the establishment of the A ictoria School for educating Maori girls, a number of ladies and gentlemen have been busily engaged for some months past in organising a bazaar, which promises to eclipse anything of the kind yet held in Auckland. The dates fixed are the 11th and 12th of next month, and upon those days the Metropolitan Ground (at the back of Government House), which has been chosen as the site for the event, should present a busy scene. Everybody must sympathise with the very worthy object the promoters have in view, and provided the weather be fine they should be rewarded with a good round sum. The stalls will include art, plain and fancy work, carving, flower, juvenile, and one presided over by the sterner sex. Musical evolutions and other novelties will help to make up a show well worth visiting, and the publie can rest assured that in helping cn a good work they will not be making martyrs of themselves, for the arrangements that are being made promise a bazaar quite out of the ordinary.
