ALEXANDRA

Valedictory Opportunity was taken at the annual social of the Earnscleugh Fruitgrowers' Association to present to one of its most esteemed members, Mr James Wing, a slight token of its esteem. Mr R S. Kinnaird said they regretted very much that Mr Wing was leaving the ranks of active fruitgrowers. As a member of the association, his advice was always considered sound. Mr W. Bringans (Mayor of Alexandra) spoke in eulogistic terms of Mr Wing's worth. Mr Kinnaird then presented Mr Wing with a travelling rug, and hoped he would be long spared to use it. Mrs M. P. M'Ginnis presented Miss E. Wing with a pyrex dish, and Mr E. J. Iversen presented Miss Treloar with a Doulton plate. Golf The competitions on the local links are proceeding very well in the ladies' section. Miss N. O'Kane won the Scott Vase with a score of 79, Miss D. Marshall being runner-up with 80 and Mrs G. Frye was round in 87. In a Bogey Match played on Thursday Mrs G. Frye proved the winner with 6 down, Mrs F. Cronin being 7 down and Mrs R. Tohill 9 down.

Belcher 215, and J. Dougherty 221. For the qualifying round for the championship, the scores are as follows: — Father M'Mahon 79—86—165, A. I. Milne 85—82—167, V. J. Shaumann 85—86—171, F. B.
