Mr and Mrs Kenneth Stewart entertained a large number of guests in the Hakaru Hall, in the evening of Tuesday, May 7th, to celebrate their son Percy's twenty-ilrst birthday. The hall was tastefully decorated ._with nikau, lycopodium fern, and rimu, which, forming a background for the maiiy beautiful dresses of the guests, formed a pretty picture. The hostess wore a very beautiful dress of navy blue silk, Mrs W. Stewart looked very nice in navy blue silk lustre, and Mrs Harrison wore a very pretty white embroidered dress. At intervals, between the dances, for which the music was ably supplied by Messrs Freeman and Smith and Mrs W.
