Mr Mills making his farewell speech. National Publicity Studios Farewell to Principal In late November 1967 Mr E. W. Mills, principal of the Central Institute of Technology, Petone, and Mr S. A. Campbell, deputy-principal, Clenda Christensen receiving Post Office Thrift Club deposits from boys at the Trade Training Centre. were farewelted on the eve of their retirement by the carpentry and plastering trainees at the Wellington Maori Trade Training Centre. Mr Mills will be remembered for his particularly enthusiastic interest in all aspects of Maori trade training. Since the Centre opened in June 1961, Mr Mills was insistent that the best machinery and the best environment for working and studying should be available for Maori trainees. He was also keenly aware of the needs of trainees outside of school hours and suggested many things now taken for granted, for example, the school breakup party, and the annual football match played against the Christchurch trainees. Mr Charles Bennett. Assistant Secretary of the Maori Affairs Department, spoke of the good work accomplished over the years by Mr Mills and of the excellent liaison developed between the Maori Affairs Department and C.I.T. Mr Mills has taken up an administrative appointment with UNESCO in Taiwan. This position is to develop trade training, a job for which Mr Mills is well qualified, and in which we wish him every success. S. A. Hunt
