TO-DAY'S "WELCOME HOME"

The "welcome home" to.be tendered to Sir Walter Buchrman, M.P., ab Carterton to-day, is more of ,1 personal, thra a political nature. There is room for differences of opinion concerning the political views enunciated by the member for Wairirapa from time to time. There is no room for sdifference ,*egarding the estimas|ori in which the' Knight of Tupuropum is held as a settler and a citizen. No man has shown a more deep concern for the welfare of hi« neighbours than Sir Walter Buchanan, and there is no oner who has made greater personal saorifioeg_ for the advancement of the; social, and puimc institu-t-fopf of the district (than he. TJie conferred \vj>»n. hj-n by His Majesty tlie King i's an. honour earned through, yearn of Service' fey ft )ja*ct_ working and honest sexier'/ * It ty as much an horiotir fy .ifte difttriob as to the man. Tlie' • hmtfreds who will foregather fin the Carterton showgrounds to-day will felicitate the meml>er for Wvirarapa upon ...his safe return from a pleasant voyage, and will express the hope that he may bo spared for many years Ho give the, benefit of his advice arid iWstanco to the district which he has helped to make, nnd which has not been unkind to hi-n.
