FORCES’ CLUBS
Weekend Entertainment The Catholic Services Club, 126 Cuba Street, Wellington, was again well patronized during, the weekend when the friendly spirit of informality which pervades the club was enjoyed by the men of the Forces. The cosy lounge was taxed to capacity, and ping-pong, darts, and dancing passed the time very pleasantly. Girls from the Wellington Catholic Lawn Tennis Association were hostesses during the weekend, and they thank all friends for generous donations of provisions which provided home-cooked meals for the men. Among those helping were Mesdames O’Halloran and McLauehlan, Misses Joan Gallagher, Noleen Alexander, Betty and Kitty Weybourue, Joyce Gregan, Mollie Cummings, Pat McDermott, Moira McNeill, Honor Vincent, Kath Beveridge, Moya Barraciough, Kath Nixon, Helen Columb. H. Harting, Joan Emerson and Eileen Mansfield. Gingernuts for Soldiers. Tins of gingernuts were sent to headquarters for soldiers’ gift parcels, from the Trentham Women’s Institute, it was stated at the monthly meeting. There was also a good response to the appeal for goods for soldiers’ parcels. Members have been busy knitting sleeveless pullovers for the Red Cross, and mittens and caps for soldiers, which were handed in to the camp.
