MORRINSVILLE.
(From our own Correspondent)
Spuing weatlier lias at last'Come and the country begins to look more cheerful. Our roads are now perfectly dry, which, in itself, means a great deal in a country district. The new Anglican Church, opened in May last, is about to be lined. Mr Hogan, the contractor, has the timber vn the ground, and the Work will propably be completed in a fortnight. There are still many extras required to make the inside of the church com-plete—cocoa-nut matting,, carpet for chancel, drapings, etc, which I hope will in time make their appearance. The residents of Mcrriuaville regret, very much the departure of Mr Main (late manager .of the'Lockerbie estate) and Mrs Main/ Mr Main was very popular both as manager and resident, and Mrs Main’s kindliness, and gentleness of disposition will be much missed in the district. They leave a gap not easy to be filled, and they harry warm good wishes with - them, to their new home, at Fencourt, to which estate Mr Main has been removed as manager Building is’ still the order of the day in Morrinsvillo. - It is hoped that the new school, which has been grantod by tbe Board of Education, will be tbe next building as the present building is much /to small to be conducive to good health in tho hot weather. The Michaelmas holidays are being held here during the first week in September, instead of the last as per Regulation,
