Priest presided, the balancesheet of the area festival was presented and it was shown that after the percentage had been forwarded to headquarters there would be a balance of £2O, which wa6 considered most satisfactory. Appreciation was expressed of the work of the secretary (Mrs S. T. Bristow) and treasurer (Miss M. Warren), also of the stage manager, Mr J. Ren wick, and all others who had rendered assistance. It was decided to assist with the transport expenses of the winning team representing the area in the North Island elimination festival at Hawera early in September.
