The Bijou Band has been engaged and will give se[l]ections during the day, and in the evening the[r]e will be a Race Ball [a]t the Town Hall, thu music being supplied by he Bijou String Band. A gathering in excess of the large crowd which assembled on New Year's night,i. expected, I should strongly advise after the forthcoming meetings that the stewards of the Pelorus and Mahakipawa clubs should hold a conference, with a view to amalgamation. The club would then be a powerful one. Meetings could be held twice a year at auiuhle ia e vals, coild be held at Mahakipawa and Kaituna alternately, the cost of management would be reduced, and a more amicable feeWg iii roiig matters than now exists
