The gathering consisted of members ■ of the Ladies' Guild, members of the Girls' Hockey Club, to which Miss Mellow also belonged, and other friends and was under the management;of Mesdamcs A. Goodwin, J. McEldowney, J. Graham and A. E. McDonald. Musical items were kindly given by the Messrs I. Cunningham and I. Boyd, and elocutionary items by Miss P. Steenson, all of which received an encore. Some of the time was also happily passed in the guessing of competitions, which were won by Mrs Marnier, Mrs E. McEldowney, and Miss Pearl Mellow. Before the very dainty afternoon lea was served, Mrs A. Goodwin, president of the Ladies' Guild, extended a hearty welcome to Miss Mellow, the guest of honour, wishing her, in the name of those present, good health, long life and much happiness in the future, and -asked her to accept a largo number of parcels, which, upon being opened later, displayed a beautiful' array of gifts, dear to the heart of a bride.
