Plunket Society Dance

The Kaitaia branch of the Plunket Society held a very successful and enjoyable dance in the A. and P. hall on Monday evening last (Labour night), when a large crowd turned up intent on enjoying themselves.

The Versatile Trio supplied excellent music, with extras by Mr. J. T. B. Taaffe and Missi N. Beazley, and Mr. M. Thornell saw that time was not allowed to lag between dances.
