BOWLING.
Bowlers desirous of attending either the Levin or Feilding official opening on the 30th inst. are rer quested to notify the secretary to that effect. One rink for each place is wanted.

It was suggested to have plain sweet biscuits, such as wine, rice wafers, etc., which are lid per lb. (same price as cream crackers), and therefore do away with the use of butter.
