In common with other camps there is a shortage of reading matter at the Tauherenikau Camp. Magazines and weekly publications would be specially welcomed and such can be left with Mr H. G. Carter, Main Street, who will arrange for forwarding the same to the camp Golf. The fourball game to be played on Saturday will be for the Keltie trophy. The competition for the challenge cup and the Balfour memorial trophy, set down for decision on July 28, will be postponed owing to the exhibition match between J. Hornabrook and D. C. Collins and J. C. Feast and B. Kiernan.
