Holiday to be observed on King’s Birthday.

THE Office will be closed on Friday, the 3rd June, being the anniversary of the birthday of H.M. the King.

Arbor Day.

WEDNESDAY, the 20th day of July next, will be observed as a public holiday in the Government Offices throughout the Dominion, for the celebration of Arbor Day.

In order that the movement may be made as successful as possible, the Government hopes that the Mayors of various municipalities and Chairmen of local bodies will place the matter prominently before the people of the Dominion, and do all they can to encourage the planting of public reserves and other available lands, both public and private, with trees suited to the locality.
