COMBINED SPORTS MEETING

GATHERING ON PARK OVAL TODAY. KEEN COMPETITION EVIDENT. The combined Masterton Primary School sports are being held in glorious weather in the Park today. The events are being run off expeditiously by a large and enthusiastic committee of teachers. The children are having a good time and the competition between the various schools is very keen. There is a good attendance of interested spectators. who are being provided with very good sport. A feature of the sports was a mass-

ed parade, children from all the schools taking part. The children marched through the town this afternoon, led'by the Central School Percussion Band. The schools represented in the procession were indicated by a banner with the year of foundation clearly shown. The fine bearing of the children moused ?nuch favourable comment from the crowd lining the. route.
