Mr F. J. Marshall’s recent importation, Carbine’s son “ Campfire,” was out on exhibition and was'much admired by all lovers of the thoroughbred. Mr J. 0. Allen also had his three-year-old son of Gallant Ben (Ben Marshall) out for an airing. He is a splendid istamp of a Clydesdale, and being bred locally is a good sample of the feeding qualities of the district’.

The farce is believed to be one of the funniest ever seen here. • —Football—v The local footballers had to cancel their match with Te Aroha on Saturday, owing to their not being a ground available The one which has been used is now partly ploughed up in connection with the formation of the roads on Mr Page’s property, and if a move is not /made shortly the publio in general, will have to go a considerable distance out of town to procure a recreation ground. —Masonic Hall — The timber is on the ground for tho Masonic Hall, which is to be erected here shortly.
