Karamea W.D.F.U. Birthday Dance

In spite of other attractions and a small crowd, an enjoyable time was spent at the local W.D.F.U.’s birthday dance, in the public hall on Friday evening. Gay-ccloured streamers and autumn blooms made a brave show. The ping-pong table was fairly well patronised, and several challenge matches were played.
