Brief Notices

Te Ao Hou, December 1960, Page 5

Brief Notices Cover Photo. Mr Ihaia Puketapu, O.B.E., standing beside the centre-post of Arohanui ki te tangata, the meeting house at Waiwhetu which owes its being to his inspiration many years ago and his driving force ever since. It was opened by the Prime Minister, Rt. Hon. Walter Nash, on September 19th, 1960. An article on the opening appears on page 31, and pages 32–33 carry photographs of the occasion. Erratum. In Haere ki o koutou tipuna, Issue 32, it was stated in the obituary notice of Mrs N. te Waari that the late Mr and Mrs Wi Hapi Love were both awarded the M.B.E. This, as a relative has pointed out, should have read O.B.E. Apologies for this error, printed in good faith. Competition. There was an excellent response in the English language section of the story competition, very thin in the Maori section, and almost no drawings. Results will be announced in the March issue. Back Issues: As previously stated, the supply of some back issues has become very short. No. 16 can be purchased, but the price will now be 5/-instead of 3/-, and back issue No. 9 is now so scarce that it must be withdrawn from sale.
