MOTHERS' UNION The biennial meeting of the Dominion council of the Mothers' Union was held in Wellington last week. Her Excellency Lady Bledisloe, patroness, attended and welcomed the delegates, who represented the dioceses of Auckland, Waikato, Waiapu, Wellington, Christchurch, and Dunedin. An address specially written by the Archbishop was read. The president, Mrs West-Watson, in her opening remarks, emphasised the need for preparation for the "Call to Renewal," which is to be the special work of the union next year.

Among the remits from the diocesan councils were several dealing with the need for the raising of the marriage age, the building of a new obstetrical hospital in Dunedin, the Bible in schools, and other matters of interest.

• "SOCRATES" " GRECIAN DRESSING Women whose menfolk are of the chatty type who have no idea of punctuality, and who are never in time for meals, should make a point of attending the Canterbury Repertory Theatre Society's production of Clifford Bax's play, "Socrates," which opened a three-night season at Radiant Hall on Saturday. There they would learn that the problem of running a house smoothly and serving meals, hot and unspoilt, at all hours, is not one peculiar to their own homes or even their own age. After seeing "Socrates" they will realise that as men are now, so they were in 399 8.C., and probably ever will be. For Socrates, the great Greek, whose philosophy has influenced the deeper thought of the world for more than i 2000 years, always preferred conver- j sation to food, much to the exasperation of his scolding wife, Xantippe. In Socrates' time, the greatest period of Athenian art and culture, women took no part in the social life of Greece, and it was the men, not the women, who enjoyed leisure, and who wore rich and colourful raiment. On Saturday night, Miss Nonie Enright, who played the part of the sorely tried irascible wife, wore a robe of grey crepe with crossed braids of yellow and yellow bands in her hair. Miss Valerie Tennent, the fluteplayer, wore a deep mauve gown embroidered in gold, and Misses Gretchen Marsden and Peggie Patterson', the slave girls, wore robes of a dull paon shade. As the sprightly little dryad, Miss Edna Gill wore a bright green frock festooned with leaves. Each of the men in the long cast wore a limation of a different colour, that of Professor who played the part of Socrates, being of parchment shade, while that of the handsome, vain Alcibiades (Mr G. S. Salter) was of rich purple, and that of the wealthy and generous Crito (Dr. Robinson E. Hall), was of a beautiful shade of blue, lavishly embroidered in silver. CANTERBURY OFFICERS' CLUB ENJOYABLE DANCE i The members of the Canterbury Officers' Club, always excellent ho .-is, entertained a number of their friends, including officers of the Air Force and of the Royal Naval Volunteer Reserve, at one of a series of monthly dances held on Saturday night at the clubrooms, Worcester street.
