"Ghosts not nv'tnded in the least," says one of the "House Wanted" advertisements; and it would lie interestBng to know how far the famine in masonry has reacted on psychical research "(states the "Snndav Observer"). A man hard put to it may well consent to share a roof with a ghost rather than have no rcof at all. Just as under sufficient economic pressure .waste land comes gradually into cultivation, so we must presume that the same argument will persuade tenants into the mos;l spectre-ridden of mans'ons. It is an odd coincidence that, while the war has resulted in a great revival of spiritualism, it eeeras to hare added nothing" to the belief in ghosts. Arrangements have boon made to' nm special trams to L'yall Bay via Constable. Street, to Karori, and to Kclburn at tho conclusion of the 'Varsity ball on Wednesday next.

Besides the stallholders, who all did good work, mention is noteworthy of the excellent arrangements made for tea and supper by Mesdames Pudney and Harris, also of the musical programme each evening, which reflected credit on those responsible for the arrangements.
