Miss Simpson, and members of the junior division of the W.D.F.tJ. Colonel Towles (principal of Flock House) welcomed the visitors. The ballroom was decorated in Japanese style, and in alcoves were great bowls of prunus, while the music came from a loud speaker like a great moon at the hack of tlie stage. Japanese lanterns and a profusion of greenery made the scene a charming one. Between the dances the following items were given : —Sailor’s hornpipe, Miss Isla Parkinson; comic song, Miss Leonoro Wilkie; song, Miss Adelaide Nitschke; song, Mr Shelton. Community singing also served to brighten the eiening. After supper had been served. Colonel Bowles thanked the organisers and other visitors for their kindness and thoughtfulness in arranging the party, and expressed the hope that it would not be long before another visit was made to Flock House.
