BRUNSWICK NOTES

(From Our Own Correspondent.) On Friday evening tho residents of the district gathered together to say an revoir to Mr and Mrs Cheswass, who, though resident her< l but a short while, have during that time always been willing helpers in anything for the welfare of the distdict. During tho. evening Air Nicol, in a short and happy speech, presented Air and Airs Cheswass with a handsome afternoon tea set as a small token of the esteem in which they wt re held in this district, and the good s< rvice rendered by Mrs Cheswass towards the school ehihlren. All regretted their departure very much indeed. Mr Campbell also spoke, and thanked Airs Cheswass on behalf of the Presbyterian Church, in which she had always been a keen and willing helper.

Air Cheswass then thanked the residents for the manner in which they had shown their kindness, his remarks being followed by the singing of “For They are Jolly Good Fellows.” The music, which was excellent, was supplied by a young local resident, Mr Claude Bruntlett. and dancing was kept up till the early hours of the morning. The supper was in the hands of the local ladies, and was supplied in abundance and taste.

During the afternoon prior to Iho above entertainment, the Brunswick school children gathered to say good bye to Airs Cheswass who has always had the welfare of the little ones at heart. She has always had the honour of preparing them for their annual concert and teaching them their sewing. Afiss A'era Nicol, on bhealf of the ch idren, presented Mrs Cheswass with a handsome jardiniere. as a small memento of the many happy hours they had spent together.
