FOOTBALL MATCH REDMOND CUP FINAL. It is unfortunate that the final match for the Redmond Cup between Carterton and Gladstone is to be played on Saturday next because many supporters will be away in Wellington at the North-South Island game. The contest promises to be a keenly fought one. , J TARATAHI GOLF LINKS NO PLAY ON SATURDAY. Owing to the annual bulb day at Middle Run, Gladstone, on Saturday, there will be no golf competitions on the Taratahi links on Saturday. This applies to both the ladies* and men’s clubs. However, those who go to the links will arrange their own partners and the afternoon tea arrangements will be in charge of Miss Stevens and Mrs Forbes. BOY SCOUTS ENJOYABLE CARD PARTY.
