DIOCESAN OLD GIRLS
DAKICE AT PETER PAN A SCENE OF COLOUR Gay music, attractive frocks and a scene of brilliant colour were features of the annual dance of the Diocesan High School Old Girls' Association, which was held in the Peter Pan Cabaret last evening. So popular was the danco that extra tables and chairs had to be brought out to accommodate the guests, but at no time was the floor crowdod sufficiently to mar the enjoyment of dancing, and the function was one of the most successful to bo held this season. Bowls of daffodils and Iceland poppies graced the small tables surrounding the danco floor, and the variegated lights cast their colourful glow on charming frocks with delightful effect.
