LOCAL AND GENERAL.

Mails for the United Kingdom and Continent despatched from here oil February 12th (via Brindisi) arrived in London on March 19th. Tiie tender of Messrs O'Reilly and Mismlet, of Ngaire, has been accented for the erection of the Salvation Army Uovs' Home at Eltliani. The price was £420 for labor only. Tenders for the painting and joinery work Jiave not yet been dealt with. Some despicable folk seem to have attended the. "official opening of the Technical School last Wednesday evening. The. woodwork instructor, .Mr. F. W. Samlford, lias reported to the Director of Technical Education that during the evening four rules were removed from the woodwork room, and they had not been returned yesterday. The matter is to lie placed in the hands of the police. The rulea were numbered 11, 13, 17 and 22. If our schoolchildren attended their school classes no better than the average teacher attends the Saturday classes arranged by the Education Board for his or her benefit, -we would have a lamentable state of affairs.
