THE FORTHCOMING CENTENNIAL
Once in a hundred years, a Centennial occasion suoh as that which will be enacted in Whakatane on Saturday next, takes place. In view of the above it behoves all who are resident in Borough or district to attend and witness the historical incidents which will be presented, and the wonderful Maori display which will be given by thousands of Natives from the Matatua Tribe. The Maoris are fast becoming Europeanised, and we learn from those who study them that purely native demonstrations will become rarer as time goes on. Saturday's programme will probably be the most comprehensive display of its kind ever to be seen locally. In view of this fact therefore pakehas from far and near who can make the trip are advised to do so.
