Frederickson for the gentlemen, whilst for the consolation prize Mrs. Lowrie and her small son, Thomas, held the recording numbers. An enjoyable dance followed, the musician being Mr. Lafferty with D. Frederickson for the extra. The M.C., Mr. Frederickson, announced that it was Mr. Lafferty's last night for the musician's job as he was leaving and that he was sorry to have to announce the fact, and thanked Mr. Lafferty for so regularly attending. The Mangaotaki football team is having a big dance on the 11th October. This team deserves some credit for their season's play, and won out under all sorts of difficulties as beset a backblocks team. The material is there. We congratulate them on their "shield" win. It is understood that they play Mangapehi on the Mangaotaki ground on Saturday, 21st instant.
