SUCCESSFUL BAZAAR

CATHOLIC FUNCTION

TO AID SCHOOL FUNDS

The bazaar held last Thursday at the Town Hall in aid of St. Patrick’s school proved a great success, competition between the various stalls being very keen. Throughout the day there was a steady stream of buyers visiting the hall and produce of all kinds sold freely. The function continued in the evening for the entertainment of a large crowd and items rendered by the school children were much appreciated by all. As a result of the day the school funds benefitted considerably and the thanks of the organising committee are due to all those who gave donations towards the bazaar.
