MAORI RELICS.
j KOTOKOA ACQUISITION. I j In th« opinion of the Minister of Internal Affairs, the Hon. \Y. K. Parry, I many of the interesting and valuable I Maori relics in the recently-established j Treasure-house and Museum at Rotorua i would enhance the collections in th, | Auckland and Wellington museums. He 'agreed that the enterprise shown by the I boron2h council in securing the collection, and its \alue to visitors to Rotorua. which was one of the principal hoiiM*of the Maori, could not l>e disputed. j Many overseas visitors to Rotorua. Mr. Parry said, had told him that before making their trip to New Zealand they had studied from hooks Maori lore and the customs of the j>eoji]e in the pa ; i and the present. From the sp!endi<i j collection of exhibits in the Rotorua Museum visitors to-day to the popular resort interested in ihe Maori could gather much valuable information which would intensify their interest in our fine and noble race of natives.
