As cute a bunch of puppies as a camera could capture is this basketful of thorough-bred Welsh Corgis, bred by Mrs J. R. Nicholls, of Grant Road.

Uncovered recently by a change in course at the mouth of the Waipaoa River, this groyne, which looks like a jetty, now projects into deep water. For years it was completely covered. It was built in 1946 by the Ministry of Works to straighten the mouth of the river, which before then used to wander for miles round towards Young Nick's Head.
