At a special meeting of the Waikato Presbytery held yesterday iu Morriusville a unanimous and hearty call to the parish of Foxton in favour of the Rev. F. McDonald was received and accepted. It was resolved that the Rev. McDonald would be inducted at Foxton on Thursday, August 31, and that the Paeroa charge would be declared vacant on Sunday, August 6. The Rev. Ryburn was appointed model ator of Paeroa during the vacancy.. The Rev. McDonald will be leaving Paeroa after Sunday, 23r.l inst., which - will be his last Sunday in the parish. The Pacific Cable Board announces that owing to the largo increase in week-end traffic it is not expected that delivery in the United Kingdom of all such, messages will be effected before Wednesday of the following week, possibly later. Senders should lodge week end messages as early as possible. The bad state of some of the roads between Ngatea and. Paeroa was forcibly impressed on the Paeroa footballers who made the trip to Ngate,a last Saturday. The team travelled in a Ford char-a-banc, and so bad were some parts of the road that not infrequently the team had to get out and push (good scrum practice). On the return journey the bus went, so deep into one hole that the number plate and tail light were broken completely off. At a Te Aroha school a few days ago several budding politicians addressed their fellow scholars. The candidates for “Parliamentary” honours represented Labour, Government, and Independent. The b,allot resulted as follows : Government 8. Independent 30,Labour 13. The lads showed a surprising knowledge of public affairs. and the candidates, were literally bombarded with questions. Some of the latter were answered neat’y and tactfully, while others were ignored in a manner typical of the methods adopted in our very own Parliament. The Independent candidate was Master Faulkner Bush, recently of the Paeroa District High Schoo’, a fifth standard boy, while the other two candidates were from the sixth standard. Mr W. H Mahony, stationer and fancy goods dealer, opposite the railway station, announces that in order to make room for a large shipnient of goods he is holding a clearing sale. The sale commences on Friday morning ; nd will continue for one week and during that time some special baragins will be offered. Toys will be sacrificed at less than cost price to clear, while the reductions in some other lines will bring the prices down to loss than wholesale value. An inspection is invited.
