The death occurred at Wellington last week of Mrs Massey, a well-known teacher on the staff of the Newtown School. The cause of death was dropsy, supervening oil goitre. Mrs Massev, who was tho widow of the late Lieutenant Charles C. Massey, of Christ church, was for some years a resident of this city. She was S9 years of age. The golden wedding of Mr and Mrs S. Tansley, of Dannevirke, was celebrated recently. They were married in Hobart, Tasmania, and came to New Zealand 47 years ago, landing in Wellington on the same day as the Marquis of Normanby, when he arrived to take over the Governorship of the colony. Mr Tansley entered the Government service in the Justice Department, and was stationed at Foxton and Blenheim before going to Dannevirke in 1891, Mr lansley having been appointed clerk of the Court, a position which- he held for 24 years before retiring on superannuation. Mr and Mrs Tansley had 11 children, all but the youngest (killed in the war) being now alive and resident in various parts of the Dominion and Australia. No incident during the Christmas holidays has shown a finer Christmas spirit than one recorded on. the Main 'I runic line at a wayside station in the King Country,. A young mother (reports an exchange) arrived at the station with two young children just in time to see the train draw out of the station. She had been going some distance to spend her Christmas with her parents not far from the city. It was the evening hour, and there was no train calling at the station again that night. A linesman passed along soon after on his jigger, and, takirg in the situation at a glance, pushed on to his hut, and soon had the billy boiling and a couple of bottles filled with some steaming not tea and a, haversack filled with cake and biscuits. Then, pulling his jigger back on to Ihe line, he started out for the station again, and placed his offering of food before tho rather anxious mother, who, after feeding the children, decided to stay the night in the bare waiting-room. Again the linesman went away, and returned after a long ride with some rugs and pillows, and the mother and children were made happy> for the night, and caught a very early train next morning, enabling her and her children to have Christmas dinner in the old home. The value of outdoor games in the development of children a characters was emphasised by Mr E. C. Cutten, S.M., at the Young Citizens' League's sports meeting Auckland. He said that young people should not only look upon sports as an amusement, but as a training in the rules of life. They Fhould always strive to win by all fair means. Any unfair.'or mean action told against their characters. Miss Helena Normanton, tho fii'3t woman in England to be admitted as a law student, was married in October at St. Pancras Registry Office, to Mr Gavin B. W. Clark, eldest son of Dr. G. B. Clark, who for many years represented Caithness in Parliament and was a medical adviser of the late Mr Gladstone. The wedding party numbered eight, and after the ceremony they boarded a passing tram-car. Mis.s Normanton, it is stated, intends to retain her name, and she is not relinquishing her plans in connexion with the legal profession. As a law student she adhieved a success accomplished by few men in taking the three comjulsory parts of the Hilary term examination at one time, and siie has more than a year left ■in which to complete her studies before taking tho final tionStates the "Manchester Guardian" : "Hire famine that has stricken a part of Russia about three times the size of England is, in its toll of human life, a more dreadful thing than ever the war was. It threatens several million more lives than all those that were lost in battle. In the war there was ilJie consolation that children were safe; in Russia 90 per cent, of the children in one province have died already. It is a disaster so ghastly that if we realised it as we realised the war there would be little peace of mind for most of us."

Parkinson's woolshed, transformed for the evening by the lavish use of evergreens, with red streamers, and brilliantly illuminated by shaded electric lights, was no exception to the rule. Spirited music was supplied by Miss Macdonald's orchestra, and a delicious supper was served in the dining-room of Mr and Mrs W. Parkinson's house nearby.

Though the morning was rather cold and uninviting yesterday for the opening day of the .Canterbury Park '1 rotting Club's Meeting, tlie afternoon proved mild and line, and the, very large crowd that attended the Trotting Meeting spent an enjoyable day. Some pretty foulard frocks, particularly suitable for the day, were seen on the i lawn, ons noticeably smart being a one-piece dress of navy and lemon foulard, worn with a liavy hat, and two Liberty silk frocks of saxe blue and yellow, .patterned in natural coloured grapes, were much admired. A beautifully cut navy and white strip, ed costume, with long sacque coat, slit nearly to the waist at each side pf the straight back panel, and worn with a small navy silk hat, with touches of lemon, was very smart, and proved conclusively that the coat and skirt can hold its own in any company. A few of the many present were:JYlr and Mrs Guy Ronalds, Mrs V. G. Day, Mr and Mrs P. Selig, Mr nnd Mrs J. E. Donald, Mr and Mrs Murray Kean (Wellington), Mr W. H. JNoiton and Miss Norton, . Mr C. M.

At the conclusion of the Ladies' Championship Singles, Mrs J. C. Peacock's tiny daughter presented to the w.nner, Miss Nancy a beau, tiful bouquet of red carnations and maidenhair, tied with long red ribbon streamers, which M ss Curtis immediately, and without spoiling its beauty, divided and gave half to Miss Marjorie Macfarlane, the plucky little runnerup, who put up such a splendid light. Another pleasing feature of the afternoon was the delightful alacrity with which H. L. Robson and E. L. Barileet, almost before the spectators had realised that they were beaten in the five set match, jumped the net in their eagerness to congratulate their opponents, P. G. Greenwood and, the veteran W. Gcss, 'whose win was tremendously popular. As on the previous dovs, Mr and Mrs W. N.

Paris husbands are getting rather peevish over the appearance out of nowhere of wondrous dancing men who hire themselves and a musician or two. to ladies who are giving afternoons exclusively to wonien friends, states a Paris writer in tho Springfield .Republican. These hired men dancers are quite perfect in the art. They do not particularly teach. They merely act as partners, giving the matrons, young and old (maidens are not admitted to these queer affairs; the unmarried French girls still lead a dull life in good society <jr goes the limit in bad, quite as she used to) wondrous experiences of sweeping rhythm and hypnotic, dreamful glides. Each of these hired dancing partners, who appear only at the most private and exclusive gatherings to which only women are invited, has a manner and a style of dancing all his own. With them that individualism of the dancer's art which is gaining such favour in England among young modern dancing people is developed to its utmost limit.

They dance as they see fib and as their partners can or wish to, and claim that they can tell the temperature of any partner and adapt themselves to it almost upon a moment's notice. They must have some difficulties, I imagine. Some of the ladies who attend these strictly private little dances are verging on the sere and yellow, and others, after the food restrictions of the war years, have been dining not too wisely but too well. They are not exactly temptresses in the oidinarv ballroom, but they get the most considerate, deferential treatment from these hired partners, who, of course, will tolerate and conduct Iflirtations as they dance if the women who has hired them indicates that such may be her pleasure. WEDDINGS. MEADE—SIBBALD. On Thursday evening, at Westport, Dr. Meade was married to Miss Eileen Sibbald, second daughter of Mr T. Sibbald, of Christdiurcli.
