GAY DANCE AT KAEAPIBO Karapiro was the scene of one of the brightest dances held in that district for years on Thursday night. A very energetic ladies' committee had arranged the function in aid of the hall funds. The hall was made gay with green and orange streamers entwined across the ceiling, while branches of Lawsoniana were arranged along the walls. Most intriguing little paper butterflies were nestling on the greenery. During the evening, Mr Manning >i Vancouver,-suggested that a waltzing competition should be .held. The idea was welcomed with great enthusiasm, and after careful consideration en the part of the judges, Miss Winnie Baker and Mr Ken Stone won the prize which was kindly donated by Mr Manning. ■ - The committee members, who fully deserved the hearty congratulations they received for the great success of the dance, were: Mesdames H. B. Rishworth, Joe Butler, R. H. Finn, Higgins, Lochoad and Miss Rose. Among the other dancers were: Mesdames R. Alford, Clarkan (Hamilton), Dodson. (Tirau), Eric Rose, Humphreys, B. Garland, George Vosper, C. G. Vosper,' C. W. Vennell, Grccnan, J. Banks, Baker.

Very feminine white summer dresses will lead the summer fashion parade at semi-formal functions. In Paramount's "Kiss and Make Up" with Cary Grant, Genevjeve Tobin is wearing a .white chiffon frock with a pleated skirt. A long tunic of knee-length is belted in black velvet which also fashions her broad-brimmed hat and gauntlet gloves. Across the forehead, a bandeau of white flowers adds flattery and she wears two ropes of pearls which have been brought back into the spotlight by the Cleopatran- influence in styles. '
