ST. CLAIR GOLF CLUB

SECOND ANNUAL BALL COLOURFUL FROCKING The St. Clair Golf Club Ball, held on Thursday evening in the Pioneer Hall, proved even more popular than the initial function of last year, and was well attended by members and friends. A prevailing atmosphere of conviviality suggested the good-fellow-ship which reigns in this old-estab-lished club. The frocking was delight, ful, and real flowers were fashionable, ns both hair and gown ornaments. On a dais at the end of the hall, which was simply decorated with blue pennants, foliage and overhanging streamers, stood the life-sized figure of a golfer supporting a veritable armoury

of clubs with equanimity. Here, too, was a well-appointed lounge for the use of the chief guests, among whom were Mr A. C. Hanlon (president of the club). Lady Sidey (president of the Ladies’ Committee), Mr W N. Satterthwaite (vice-president) and Mrs Satterthwaite, and 'the captain of the club (Mr J. E. Macassey) and Mrs Macassey.
