MAORI ORGANISER'S REPORT.
Kaipara Harbour, Jan. 2, 1915. On the New Year’s Day 1 took my fir>t long ride over to Oruawharo, Port Albert, to attend the meeting of ilu W.C.T.U. there. I visited this place a year ago, and this time a wonderful improvement was in evidence. The President, Mrs Clarke Paikea, handles all the business right, in a very tactful way. One splendid feature was how the men and boys came 111 and laid down their offerings of money towards the women’s fund, showing that they recognise the l nion as an instrument of good for them all. 1 was able, during my visit to these people, to explain to them an error which was in the printed rules. They hope to send in a report for next month’s issue. The Otamatea Union succeeded in raising £l4 in aid of church repairs during a tea meeting held on Dec. 14. Other Unions are progressing favourably. I am now waiting for a fresh supply of printed rules to send out to the different branches. These we have had to have reprinted, owing to an error in Rule 5. Wishing you all a Prosperous New Year. FLORENCE WGODHEAD, Maori Organiser.
