A ROUSING VOICE.

A Proclamation from the King.

My people, we have gone around the last headland, the most difficult phase of the war in which the whole world is engaged so that the enemy may not triumph. The enemy is desperate; he is committing all his resources; he can no longer see daylight and is adding to the atrocities he has committed.

OUR PAPER

During this month there will be two editions of our bird. But do not go hoping that your pet will appear every two weeks. No. There are two editions this month because the Committee that manages Te Kopara decided that it will be better if the paper comes out in the first week of each month.

THE LIFE HEREAFTER.

By W Tureia Puha, Uawa.

Chapter IV. ‘What happens to the souls in Te Reinga.’

We have seen in Chapter III that all souls, whether food or bad, go to Te Reinga, to the place prepared for them from the beginning of the world. Because a desire has sprung up in the heart to be very clear about the correctness and the truth of the words of explanation in Chapter III about the single place to which souls go, that is, about Te Reinga, I want to set before the readers of these few words just one thought to support those words. Most of the thoughts in Chapter III are based on the Scriptures but this one has its roots in Maori ideas.
