A few weeks ago the Mahoenui Dramatic Society staged the amusing one-act farce, “House to Let.”' Those who took part were the Misses Worboys and Davidson and Messrs. S. Roberts, G. Prior and J. Davidson, with Mr. J. C. Moss as producer. Each role was portrayed in a capable manner and the play was appreciated by a large audience. At the conclusion of the performance supper was served and the hall cleared for dancing. A Collapsible Stage. A working bee recently made improvements to the public hall. A number of movable seats were made and a collapsible stage that can be swung back against the wall so that it does not encroach on the dancing space. Personal Miss Tate, Waltara, is the guest of Mrs. A. Old. . Miss J. MacKenzie has returned after spending three weeks at Wellington. Messis. L. G. Purdie, A. C. Moir and A. Old are on a motor tour of Dannevirke and the surrounding districts. Mr. W. Gellatly will leave to-day to spend a few days with his parents at Kilbimie, Wellington.
