TIRAU.
VALEDICTORY SOCIAL. A very enjoyable smoke concert was tendered to Mr. A. Henson the other evening. The occasion was to mark the departure of Mr. Henson from the district. Mr. A. J. Neville presided”, and in the course of making a presentation to the guest of the evening, referred to the recipient’s sterling* qualities, his obliging disposition and his general reputation of being a real good sport. He then presented Mr. Henson with a gold watch on behalf of the residents. Mr. Henson appropriately replied, and the rest of the evening was whiled away in song and story. Mr. Plenson, it is understood, intends, in future, to follow farming pursuits in the Morrinsville district. PAINFUL ACCIDENT.
A rather painful accident befell Mr. J. Emslie, the Matamata County Council foreman, the other day. It appears that Mr. Emslie got his knee badly crushed between a motor lorry and some timber, which necessitated his being taken into Matamata for medical treatment. His progress is now satisfactory. PERSONAL. Two well-known faces are at present absent from the vicinity of the Tirau railway station. Mr. G. Rollerson, officer in charge, is away on annual Teave and Mr. J. Callaghan, whose taxi is such a feature at the station, is down with sickness.
