VENTURE SANCTIONED
New Mark Metekingi, a Maori school teacher. is plannin to retrace the route of that great migration. using a canoe simi- ar to that which carried his ancestors. The voyage he plans would cover some 4, miles, from New Zealand to Hawaii, by'way of Tahiti.
Already Metekingl has ob- tained sanction from the marine department for his voyage.
The government has author- ized a search of Kauri forests for a suitable tree from which to build the canoe. The Kauri tree, native to New Zealand, yields magnificent wood- for canoe making.
Metekingi will seek the help of Maoris at Ngaruawahia. a town on the Waikato River, who still build canoes. The craft for

Military spurs and high heels clicked through the sinister for the first time as the governor- general's full-dressed guard and Mme. Vanier accompanied him to the abbey family room.
