WOMEN’S INSTITUTE
CHRISTMAS PARTY AT KAHUTARA. (“Times-Age” Special.) The Kahutara Women’s Institute held a most successful plain and fancy dress Christmas party for the children of the district, the hall being packed. Udy’s orchestra supplied the music, and Mr Rendle was M.C. In the early part of the gathering, Mr Stalker piped into the hall Father Christmas, who subsequently led the grand march. Two playettes by Mrs Sadler’s pupils were much enjoyed. A duet was sung by Gwenda Hubbard and Marie Maisey, with Mrs Barg'h at the piano. The fancy costumes were outstanding, and the judges, Mesdames Campbell Pearce, D. Collins and C.
