ROSENEATH SCHOOL PICNIC
The Cobar conveyed some 350 children of the Roseneath and Hataitai School to Day's Bay on Saturday, tho occasion being tho annual picnic of tho school. En'route to the bay, the Cobar went round the the troopship Hororata in tho stream, and gave the returned soldiers on board a hearty rally of welcome. The weather at tho Bay was ail that could be desired, and the day was given up wholly to eports and merry-making. The girls' running championship was won by Maida Adaina, and tho Ws' championship by Bruce Headlands. Miss Adame won the teachers' race, and Mrs. Neal the married women's race. Tho annual cricket match between the boys and tho committee was won by the latter team, which made 83 runs, as against the boys' 50. Sweets and fruit were freely dis- ■ tributeel by the committee, which also provided hot water, tea, sugar, and milk for all and sundry. During the luncheon interval opportunity was taken by Mr. Morrison (chairman of the committee) to present the dux gold medal (donated by Dr. Adams) to Neileria Clark. Through the courtesy of the Eastbourne forry officials the picnickers embarked and disembarked at the Clyde Quay Wharf.
