The day was beautifully fine, a fact which no doubt induced a number of spectators to be in attendance. The game for the afternoon was a mixed foursome, 12 holes, over the men’s course. The greens were in very fair order, and generally the links Were considered to be in very satisfactory order. The Jockey .Club very kindly made the large dining rooms available and a delicious afternoon tea was provided and served by the lady members. ■ The president, Dr. Gilbert Smith, in a neat speech, welcomed the visitors to the links and also presented the, prizes won during the afternoon’s play.
