There wore quite a number of Oliiin and Levin and Weraroa poets moved to measured praise by tfoo offer of n prize for the best versified coin position. One youthful miss, with a precocious turn for irony, ivritos :— "There's a stationery shop in Levin you should know, Where all the commonsense people do go. There are a few more who live round about Should visit this shop when'er they are out." After considering various merit 9 and weaknesses in the many verses .«cn( in' the judge has decided to award the prize of five shillings to the following effort:— THOMPSON'S BOOK ARCADE "Of course you all know this place of renown Fur good quality goods; its the best in the town. Another thing too, the prices are fair, And there's no overcharging or huge prouts there; So if you're ever in Levin—this lively little town— Just stop into Thompson's and have n quiz round, For they've choice there to distrnction, And tho result you will find is great .satisfaction."
