GENERAL NEWS At the fortnightly meeting of the Kia Ora Social Club, Mr Cowan presided over a record attendance of members. A very pleasurable evening opened with a folk dance, and following this, much amusement resulted from a reading of the one-act play, “ Elizabeth Refuses.” This is a miniature comedy from a novel written over 100 years ago, and depicts an episode in the lives of country gentry of that period. After the reading, the play was discussed briefly. A competition in the hands of Mr_W. Mills, was won by Misses M. Dalziel, W. Telfer, and B. Allan, who secured'an equal number of correct answers. Dancing was then enjoyed, with Misses P. Thompson and D. Kirton, Mrs Maekie, and Messrs James Thompson and C. Cowan supplying the music. The monthly meeting of the Kakanui P.W.M.U. was held in the Sunday School Hall, Mrs Andrews presiding over a good attendance. The meeting was opened with praise, Scripture reading, and prayer. Miss Cleverley was appointed Harvest Field secretary. _ Several missionary letters from China and India were read by Mesdames M’Ghie, Mould, and Smith, and proved very interesting. After the benediction, afternoon tea was dispensed by Mesdames M’Phail and Mould.
