SECOND ANNUAL FUNCTION. MANY GUESTS ATTEND. Festoons of gaily coloured lights decorated the Peter Pan Cabaret last night, when the second annual ball of the Electrical Wholesalers' Recreation Association was held. In shades of red. blue, gold and green these strings of multi-coloured light made an effective setting for the dance, and the crowded floor, with the gay evening frocks enhanced by the lighting effects, made a truly colourful scene.
