A good deal of quiet resentment is being expressed at the action of tho City Council in asking an annual rental of «£5 for an encroachment maHo on to a public road at Hataitai by the Roseneath Side School ground.

"By tho school authorities fencing in this waste reservation," lie said, "they have—like the residents— snved the council an immense expenditure Working-bees in connection with tho school committee have improved thefo waste lauds by planting shrubs, which mako the appearance generally pleasing to the public, but apparently the civic authorities give them very little credit for their labours."
