At an extraordinary meeting of the Farmers’ Veterinary Club, held at Ngatea on Friday last, a resolution was passed providing that in the event of the club being wound up, the assets would be sold by public auction and the proceeds divided equally among the members who were financial, at the time.

A pleasing little ceremony took place at the meeting of the Loyal Jubilee Lodge, M.U.1.0.0.F., at the lodgeroom, Centenary Hall, on Monday night, when Bro. C. E. J.- Gwilliam, P.G., s was presented with a handsome Past 'Grand’s collar in recognition of his services to the lodge.
