MAURICEVILLE EAST.
After a continuous drought, extending over a period of five weeks, rain fell here on Monday evening, but not neavly enough to fill the tanks, only 13 points being registered.
The usual monthly meeting of the School Committee was held in the schoolroom last evening. Present: — Mr R. Brooks (chairman), C. Brooks, E. Braggins, R. Hopley, W. Fisher. G. Dryden, and W. Martin. The usual quarterly accounts were passed for payment, and some minor works were ordered to be carried out during the ensuing month. A hearty vote of thanks was accorded the schoolmaster for the trouble he had gone to in acquiring a hazard target and outfit for the school. The chairman very kindly gave a donation of half a guinea to be given for the highest aggregate score of six competitions, firing to be carried out at two ranges. There is every indication of :-. strong eleven journeying to Masterton next Saturday, to try conclusions on the Park Oval with the St. Matthew's Club.
