SCHOOL PLEASURES.
TO THE EDITOR. Sir, —With the approach of summer I think it is only right that some attention should be given to matters in connection with the public school. I mean in the way of providing some proper entertainment, and instituting an annual school picnic. Everybody is interested in such things, and it is only right make school life as pleasant as possible in order to secure the most profit for the children from it. Trusting the parents in general will take hold of the suggestion which I am willing to back with a contribution as a guarantee of good faith. Trusting others will do the same.—l am, etc., LOCAL PARENT.

The improvements in connection with Te Kuiti railway station, are being well pushed ahead, and the yard is beginning to assume a much more complete appearance. The switch leading to the turntable has been connected with the main line and the various additions, in the shape of new shunting lines, will shortly be taken in hand by Inspector Sellars.
The advent of summer is rousing of tennis and cricket to action in the direction of arranging for the conducting of the favourite games during the next few months. At TaumaroH nui meetings of tennis and cricket player's have already been held, and the' season promises to be a busy one. Te Kuiti does not yet possess a suitable cricket field and the game has little chance to thrive at that centre for a time: The tennis club has a strong membership, and the game should be well supported during the coming season. DAIRY SKIMMING. The Baltic Separator is steadily winning its way into public favour. The following testimony from Mr A. Armstrong, of Manakau, is a fair sample of the letters we receive:— " The 100 gallon per hour Baltic separator is giving entire satisfaction. It runs smoothly, and \s easy to turn. In capacity and skimming, it is all that is claimed for it. It is most economical machine I have used ; so far the up-keep has been nil. Having had experience with other makes I can recommend, it as being the best." J. B, MaeEwan & Co. Ltd., Sole Agents, Fort-street, Auckland
