and Lou junior—have won table tennis championships. When he returned to England after conducting a coaching tour in New Zealand, Ken Stanley wrote in the English Table Tennis Association magazine of “an elderly Maori who walked 24 miles on a number of occasions to watch and hear me coach.” That was Lou Davis. Neti is now proving just how valuable her grandfather's efforts have been. Lou also taught his grandchildren to play tennis. He laid down a grass court and proceeded to coach. His grandchildren have won a heap of tennis titles. He has assisted in the running of practically all of Northland's junior tennis tournaments. Lou is vitally interested in the welfare of the Maori people (“my people”) and they put their whole trust in this quiet man. It is most fitting that New Zealand's first Maori table tennis representative should be his granddaughter.

Makee to weka i te mahanga e hoki ano? (Once a weka has escaped a snare, would it go back to it again?) It's very easy to fritter your money away—you can't think where it's gone to—but like the escaped weka—you can be sure you won't see it again. It's never easy to save—but there is ONE SURE WAY. JOIN A THRIFT CLUB WHERE YOU WORK … and the saving is done for you. Any amount you decide you can afford is then painlessly subtracted from your weekly wage. It soon mounts up—and earns interest too—and you'll find that when you want money for larger expenses such as holidays, clothes, sports, etc…. the money is there when you most need it—you can withdraw it whenever you want to. Just arrange with your employer to deduct a fixed amount from your pay each week. Join the Post Office Thrift Club where you work AND WATCH YOUR SAVINGS GROW!
