Exiles in New York.
The New Zealand colony in New York, numbering about 125. has formed a society, and held its first gathering, a dinner, recently. When the King and Queen visited the World's Fair seventy-five former residents of the Dominion were invited to be present at the New Zealand pavilion, the Queen being most gracious. She chatted about Wellington and the Maoris, the New Zealanders giving the Royal pair a rousing cheer when they left. Up to that time about four hundred New Zealanders had visited the pavilion.
