WOODVILLE.

(G. W. Davidson.) Our Church Warden, Mr. Hustwick, has returned home from hospital, and is steadily improving. Mrs. King is still there, very ill — her stay is now nearly six months. We hope that the great care of the Dannevirke doctor and staff will be successful. Mr. A. Davidson and Mr. Vowell have been spending several mornings m improving the Church grounds m preparation for the Rhodes shrubs, which are on order. More lawn has been prepared, and, with its brick wall, a very pleasing appearance has been achieved.. We are hoping that other volunteers will complete the big work so nearly finished. The Vicar represented the Church at the Methodist Diamond Jubilee banquet, and was given charge of the principal toast of the evening, -"The Methodist Church m New Zealand." Nearly two hundred attends ed, including ministers of Presbyterian and other Methodist circuits, and the Salvation Army officer. The series of services and socials have been a great success, and we wish our Methodist friends God's blessing with good will.
