MURIWAI SPORTS.

A NEW YEAR ATTRACTION. PROMISES TO BE GREAT SUCCESS. The holiday season draws near, and to those whot are making arrangements for their holidays it is suggested that at New Year they should take a run to Muriwai and participate in the excellent programme provided by the Muriwai Athletic Club. This Club, of whose last year’s gathering none have but pleasant memories, is going to no end of trouble to surpass the success that attended their gathering last year. The programme has been registered under the N.Z. Athletic and Cycling Union and the N.Z. Axemen’s Association, and it is thought that this programme will easily appeal to those' whoi nave the interest of true, clean, and healthy sport at heart. The club have been successful in securing the services of the Gisborne City Band, and this will no doubt go a long way towards popularising the gathering. Tea and cakes and such light refreshments will he procurable on the ground at a reasonable cost. Redstone’s brakes wilt leave the Masonic Hotel stables at 9 o’clock sharp in the morning- A dance is to be held in the evening in the commodious woolshed near by, and will no doubt prove a fitting wind-up to a good day's sport. The music will lie in the capable hands of M. F. Kirk, whose name is *ufficient without comment.
