(From Our Own Coirespondent) Mrs C. Hooper met with a painful accident, on Tuesday last. She was standing on a box to wind the clock in the Post Office, when the box slipped and she fell heavily to the floor, the result being a severe sprain to one knee. Dr Meinhold was in attendance as quickly as distance would allow, and made the sufferer as comfortable as was possible) but it will be some weeks, before Mrs Hooper will be able to resume her duties in the Post Office. Much sympathy is felt for her by her many friends in the district. Mr Woodcock, who was thrown out of a trap a few weeks ago and severely shaken and knocked about,, is making satisfactory progress towards recovery, and is getting to work on his farm again. *A social was held in the hall on Friday night, the pn|gegds of which go to the pianb^ fund. There were a good number of visitors from Tahekeroa, Glorit, and Kaukapakapa, and a very enjoyable time was spent. Makarau dances are always popular.
