PRESBYTERIAN SUMMER SCHOOL.
Masterton's population will be increased by about eight hundred at Christmas time, though, unfortunately, only for a week. The Presbyterian Summer School, an annual affair of considerable magnitude, wiil take place during the last week of the year, and it is likely to be attended by quite eight hundred people. Last year the "school" was held at Invercargill, when over seven hundred Sunday school teachers attended, and as Masterton is more centrally situated it is anticipated that fully a hundred more will be present at the Masterton "school. 1 " The gathering is arranged to bring together as many Presbyterian Sunday school teachers from all part 3of the Dominion as possible. Practical work is carried out at the school, while social matters are also given plenty of prominence. Sports gatherings are held, and at the Masterton school a swimming carnival is proposed. The main school building will be utilised for the accommodation of lady teachers.
