HOSPITAL BALL.

A SUCCESSFUL GATHERING. Coronation Day was brought to a fitting conclusion last night with the annual Hospital Ball, which was held in the Town Hall. The I mil was arranged and managed by the officers of the Oddfellows’ Lodge, and the resulting funds wore earmarked for the erection of an infectious diseases ward at the hospital. There wore a good number present, though the attendance was not quite up to that at last year’s function. Everybody spent a pleasant time, the floor being in tip-top condition. Excellent music was supplied by the Stratford Orchestra] Society under the conductorship of iAir C.' 11. Rogers. Extras were played by Mrs Cardale, MisS Black and Messrs Murray and T. Shcahan; The duties of M.C. wore carried out in an able manner by Messrs P. Skoglmul and T. Lawson. A sumptuous supper was provided and dime full justice to. Things were kept going merrily till 2 o’clock this morning, the big total of twentyeight dances being gone through. A special word of praise is due to the ladies, ■who did a great deal of work in canvassing for and collecting refreshments and in connection with tlie hull. Altogether the whole function was highly successful and enjoyable, and with .the Government subsidy, the fund for the infectious diseases ward will benefit considerable.
