Ceremonial house of King Koroki. were no fewer than three craftsmen who had preferred the arts of their ancestors to the Ranfurly Shield match; on other Saturdays the number of carvers is much greater. Also working was the lady who keeps the shop at Turangawaewae; this shop is run on the strictest lines, and its proceeds help in the maintenance and development of the Pa. This, then, is the outward appearance of the heart of today's King movement. It is very good housekeeping on a large and impressive scale. It is possible for the tribes who recognize the King's leadership to find in Turangawaewae Pa an ideal to imitate and aim at. In the Waikato idea of Kingship the King is not kept in great luxury, and the people's efforts are not spent in attending on his person. Many of the buildings erected with such labour at Ngaruawahia are for communal use, others for ceremonial use in receiving the prominent chiefs. Neatness and decency in communal life—that is perhaps the best way of describing it. How Turangawaewae Pa was built up with immense hard work—there were certainly no ‘handouts' for the builders of this pa—is a wonderful story which cannot be told in this article. As all suitable land for a pa on the historic site of Ngaruawahia had been confiscated after the war of the sixties, this area had to be bought back. The purchase price had to be earned by Te Puea and her people by collecting flax in the swamps, and when the purchase price was earned once, the vendor raised the price, and it had to be earned again. Then blackberry had to be cleared; a whole hill had to be shifted to even out the ground; the earth had to be carried away in baskets, ‘Chinese fashion’, so it was explained to me. Sanitation and modern living had to be introduced. In one great effort after another the halls and meeting-houses were built.
