TAUERU NOTES.

(From Our Own Correspondent),

'Arrangements have been made, it v is understood, to have the Post Offico and Telephone moved. to Mr Bees' shop jusfaboYo the Hotel. The wads about here—the side roads I mean—aro in a most fearful state, What house-hoklors round about here pay rates foris a problem, only to be answered by the Council or Board, or whatever body rules over the local wants, Peoplo have • houses built fronting what is called a street, but what is in reality a quagmire,. These streets have had nothing whatever dono te them, and yet rates are annually collected, and presumably spent, You would think nothing could be worse than the main road, but a friend of mine expressed a kind wish thata member or two could bo landed in the middlocfoue of tho stroet," on a darkish night, and left to get out, Tho school cbiMren'had a holiday' • on Arbor Day, The boys spent the day in digging round tho old trees, transplanting some of of them, and ... planting out some new ones. When tho trees grow tho, playground will present a vastly improved appear-

anco. In connection with the school I hear that the annual drawing examination is to bo held on Sept.. sth.

The Tftueru is still going ahead—another konso is.to be built'in Wardolltown, and additions are to bo mado to somo already up. Wo had very sharp • frosts on Monday and Tuesday, and fine days in consequonco, In good truth we aro heartily tired of rain, mid welcome anything for a change.
