GOOD COMPANIONS CLUB

First Dance Held Proves Successful. MANY MEMBERS ATTEND, The efforts of members of the Good Companions’ Club met with success last evening when a dance was held in Miss Mary Menzies studio, Victoria Street. The club, which has been formed by a number of Rangi-Ruru Old Girls interested in French, meets once a month at the homes of different members, when various speakers deliver short addresses, plays are read, and the French language is spoken. Last evening’s party, however, was the first wholly social venture, and about 120 guests were present. Mesdames J. D. Herdman, A. R. Bloxam and C. M. Bruce, who had been hostesses at the meetings, were the guests of honour. Miss Gibson and Miss Ethel Gibson were unfortunately unable to be present. Members of the committee were:— Misses J. M.
