STRATFORD NOTES.
(KIIOM Ot.'R OWN COISitESI'ONOUNT). J A united memorial servico is to be! held in the Recreation Grounds on j •Saturday, tho day of the Qu.ion's 1 , fimoml, which svill dvubttes bo at-t tended by a largo crowd, f regrei f.ol .--ta'e that tin Anglican minister dois not si e his way to j du in tho service, It Ins beoa pioposed to commemorate the Qusni by plauting the banks of the Patoawith we aping willows, toba known as " Victoria Grove," The suggestion seems a sensible one. Wo certainly want more treo-j to add to tho attrac tiven'ss of tho town. Tho weeping willow is easily grown, thrives wcl l here, and is a handsome tree. The expense of planting such a grove would be nominal, and its attractiveness would increase year by year, I hope the proposal will be carried out. The iVi inistor for Lands is expected hare on Monday, via Whangamornona. A representative deputatioa is to drive out and nv/et him at Strathmore. Tie Mounted Rifles go into camp this week at Sentry Hill. It is expected thsie will be a large muster,
