Kinross and Mr Chard, who also accompanied the dumbell exercises' Votes of thanks were passed to those who had pulled so well together, and a good cup of tea and light eatables were enjoyed by all and. sundry. A final hymn and the pronouncement of the benediction closed a thoroughly pleasant evening and terminated a series of sociable and profitable gatherings most gratifying to all the workers. * D
