Whakarongo

From Our Own Correspondent. The popularity of the fortnightly Tuesday euchre evenings was evident by the large and enthusiastic crowd that assembled on Tuesday, evening. Two ladies, Mesdames Lawrence and Keith, tied for first place, while Mr. P. Christianson annexed the men’s prize. The consolation prizes were won by Mrs. Uhrbom and Mr. Corbon. Following euchre, supper was served. A short but very enjoyable dance followed, players being Miss Pye and Messrs W. McMurray and H. Robson. H. Gore conducted in his usual efficient manner.
