Mrs. Death made a presentation of a fountain pen to Mrs. Carter. Mrs. D. M. Cameron (president of the Okaiawa branch) presented a bouquet of autumn-tinted flowers and spoke in appreciation of. the many times she and Mrs. Carter had met in division work.

Songs were sung by Miss Audrey Marsh (Ararata) and recitations were given by Mrs. Robb. There was also community singing.
