Bentham was master of ceremonies and Mr. Les. Davidson was at the piano, extras being played by Mr. T. Meredith. This being the final function in the first series of euchre evenings, interest in the points prize ran high. When the scores for the season were totalled it was found that Miss Jessie MacGregor had secured the ladies’ award and Mr. Cliff Sharpe had the highest score among the men. Encouraged by the success of its fortnightly social evenings, the hall committee has decided to hold a long night dance in the near future, and prepara-, tions f»rr the event- are being pushed forward.
