QUEEN CARNIVAL FOR CHURCH FUNDS It has been proposed to hold a Queen Carnival and bazaar in Ohakune during the early part of August in aid of the building fund for the new Catholic Church.

Woodslock have been appointed joint secretaries for the Queen carnival and bazaar. In conjunction with the carnival a series .of dances will be run, as well as euchre parties and other forms .of entertainment. The “queens" for the different centres have been chosen as follow: Town, Miss M. Cranston; Junction, Miss P. York; Country and Sawmills, Miss Plunkett; Maori, not yet chosen.
