LOCAL INSTITUTIONS
War-worry, anxiety and patriotic counter activities have detrimentally affected the activities of the town's local institutions. Very poor public support is being accorded even the best of them, yet today those struggling along deserve recognition and encouragement more than ever before. They are not merely fulfilling useful and faithful work; they are providing a very welcome diversion from depressing thoughts. If the public would realise this fact a little more, there would be better patronage for football games and other athletics; more support for social activities and greater encouragement to the growing boys and girls of our community in their sport and instruction.
Back-handed. Overheard in the Strand as two farmers were conversing, "Where's that young chap you had?" "I sacked him." "I'm not surprised, 1 taught him all he knew,"and when he left me to go to you, he still knew nothing."
Omission. An omission from the report of the Whakataae Caledonian Society's monthly Ingleside was the acknowledgment of Miss Marion Raymond's two solos, "A Bridle Hanging on the Wall," and "Little Angeline."
