The " Waikato News " says :— We hear on good authority that {Mr J. B, Whyte has lately dropped m for a slice of good luck. A block of land of some 40,000 aores m tbe Poyerty Bay district was put up for a long lease at at upset prioe of £60 per year- The '. outside publio got the idea that the conditions _ were prohibitive, whilst Mr Whyte knew they ' were not so, and at the hour appointed for the sale Mr Whyte jand another gentleman were the only ones present, tho result being that the Waikato man got the lot at tbe price stated. Forty thousand aores at £60 per year is not to bo despised m these days. The " Telegraph " says that the teaching staff of Canterbury College deserve very great commendation for the success of their labours m the oause of education. During tbe year r five students have gained the M.A. degree, and I twelve have passed the final section of the B.A. First-plass honors have been taken m languages,' m mathematios, and physioal science. This bespeaks good work for one year.. Out of the one hundred and sixty-six students who ' have taken degrees m the University of New Zealand, seventy, or nearly one-half of the whole number, were educated m Canterbury College. More than one-half of the Bowen prizes, and two-thirds of the scholarships awarded during the last six years by the University, together with a full share of other honors have been cvrriod off by the students at the College.
