W, Hutchison, the new Mayoress of Auckland. The gathering was entirely informal and a very pleasant time was spent. The large bowls of golden chrysanthemums in the rooms were beautiful and tall stands containing green palms added fo the beauty of the scene. Miss Mowbray, president of the league,'extended a hearty welcome to Mrs. Hutchison and the other Mayoresses. She particularly welcomed Mrs. A. D.
