CARTERTON NEWS.
(From Our Resident Reporter.) Tuesday. Mr Joseph Stevens, caretaker of Carter's Old Men's Home, will leave to-morrow on a month's holiday visit to Rotorua. The heavy rain which fell here last evening was responsible for the Maungatarere overflowing its banks, and submerging the low lying lands. On the Dalefield side of the railway crossing the water was several inches deep across the road. Mr Keith Armstrong, an ex-Car tsrtonian, who was a prominent supporter of the Rover Football Club when resident here, is taking a great interest in the Kai Toa Club, at Palmerston North, where he now resides. At the annual meeting of the club he was elected captain.
Mr Horace De Lacey, formerly of Carterton, who has for some time been employed on the railway staff at Takapau, Hawke's Bay, was the recipient of a purse of sovereigns at a smoke concert tendered him by a number of friends, the other evening, the occasion being his transfer to another district.
Mr W. M. Halley has donated a guinea to the tunds of the local Brass Band.
