About 200 men are still employed at the Waitaki hydro-electric works, where much work still remains to be done. This number includes the permanent staff. At night the township is still a blaze of light which gives little indication that its former glory has departed. But daylight shows that many stores have the “closed’” sign. Community life still, however, goes on. Golf is played on a nine-hole course, tennis is popular, and there are moving picture shows once a week or ,sp in the X.M.C.A. hall.
