Waipukurau.

Vicar: liev. Jf\ W. Martin. Curate: Rev. H. Collier. The annual meeting of Parishioners was held m the schoolroom on July 31st, the Vicar presiding. The Wardens, m submitting their report, drew attention to the fact that the Diocesan authorities contemplated a rearrangement of boundaries, necessitated by the formation of new parochial districts, and one of the changes affecting this Parish m the near future would be the cuttdng off of Onga Onga district, which it is proposed to add to Waipawa. The report also dealt with the position m regard to the glebe land within the Waipukurau Town Board area, which has recently oeen surveyed and divided into quarter-acre allotments. The Vestry had every intention of placing these properties on the,market immediately, but owing to the fact (which has just been brought to the knowledge of the Vestry) that part of the property was under the Land Transfer Act and part under the Deeds Registration Act, the mJattsr is held up for the time being to allow for the whole piece to be brought under the Land Transfer Act. The faalance-sbeet showed that the income for the 'year just met the expenditure (£99 17/9) brought forward from the previous year, the balance at the end of the year being 3/8. The* Vicar appointed Mr. C Saunders as his Warden, Mr. G. A. Ellison being re-elected People's Warden. The Vestry elected were Messrs Scruby, Dacres, Broadley, Bryce, Hewitt, Merton, Hobson, Bean, Curd, and Wilkins. Auditor, Mr. E.

Gilbertson. Votes of thanks were passed to the Ladies' Guild, Sundayschool teachers, District Collectors, retiring Vestry, and the Press.
