WAIKAKA NOTES

(From Oiir Correspondent.) The bazaar which was held last week in aid of the school fund was concluded on Friday night by a concert and dance. Owing to a break-down with their car the Gore party, who were to give the concert were unfortunately very much late in arriving, but the time was partly taken up with items given by local performers. The Gore concert, party consisted of Misses Wynne, Latham and Breen and Messrs Jones, Pringle and Ing. After the concert supper was handed round and the hall was then cleared for dancing. During the. dance a lucky spot dance was held and the prize was won by Miss Ida Green and Mr Downey. The winners of the two tons of coal for the correct takings and of the competition for the bride’s doll were announced during the evening, these being Mrs W. J. Payne and Mrs Cathy. Browning respectively. On. Saturday afternoon the Waikaka schoolboys played a match with the lapanui school boys, and succeeded in winning the match by 14 points to nil. The hockey team were also successful in their match with a team from Kelso. Mr and Mrs J. Coakley and children (Invercargill) spent the week-end in Waikaka.
