MILITARY BALL

The C. Squadron's annual militarr ball was held in the Town Hall on Wednesday. The hall was tastefully decorated with flags and, evergreens, and the floor was in splendid order. Messrs G. Calder, C. Davis, R. Gamhh, J. Joyce, and M. Lyuskey officiated as .Ms.C. Over *100 "couples crraced the floor, and a full orchestral band, under Conductor Cogrove, provided excellent music. A splendid supper was provided by the ladies, and the function was most enjoyable. The committee and the energetic secretary (Mr R.E. Bridge), deserve every credit for the completeness of the arrangements. „ • ■
