Mr. Dixon is to leave New Plymouth on Saturday, having been "transferred by his Bank to the Huhterville branch. Though the weather made the links an unattractive meeting-place, there was a cordial gathering of about a dozen members. The club's president, Mr;.' A. Standish,- extended -to Mr. Dixon the good wishes of the membeirs, and 1 expressed^ their sorrow At his departure. However, he added, they -were not so selfish as not to be „ pleased at -their guest's promotion. x He spoke of Mr. Bixon's services to the "cluby, mentioning m particular that the sucpess of the recent tournament was largely attributable to his efforts. The President then handed to Mr. Dixon the members,' tqken of esteem, a pair of gold sleeW links- inscribed with the recipients' initials and, those of the Ngamotu Golf Club. Mr. Dixon, returning thanks, said he sincerely regretted leaving the club, but he did not intend to separate himself from it any more than Was necessary. He had always had -the most' pleasant associations with other members. He was especially grateful to those players who had assisted him in the first days of his playing. He considered it necessary in the interests of the club that the leading players should devote some of their time to the coaching of beginners. Another matter he wished to men-r tion was the improvement in the play of the club generally. To win a match this year a , player needed to be about four strokes better than last year. The usual tributo of song to . Mr. Dixon's good fellowship was heartily given. A vote of thanks was accorded the ladies who had served tea^ For hoarseness which follows straining of the voice, nothing is so soothing or effective as Zymole Trokeys. A trial will please you. 22
