PRESBYTERIAN “BUSY BEES” A very successful sale of work was held in the Presbyterian Hall on Wednesday by the members of St. David’s "Busy Boes.” Mrs. Bilbrough, who was their leader before her departure from Taihape, journeyed from Hunterville for the occasion. The projects on “India” that were on display were a great credit to the children and their leaders. The “Busy Bees” desire to thank all who gave and helped so generously to make the sale such a success —over £6O being raised for the missionary work of the church. The following were in charge of the various stalls: Sewing, Mrs. Bilbrough and Mrs. E. R. Fannin; cakes, Mrs. J. R. Dellow and Mrs. Barker, flowers, Mesdames D G. Gordon, Tiznrd and McCombie; produce, Mrs. G. Bolk and “Busy Bees”; sweets, Mrs. W. J. Dellow and “Busy Bees”; afternoon tea. Mesdames Harvey, Davies, M. Johnstone and Miss W. Dellow, PRESBYTERIAN VALEDICTORY GATHERING Members of St. David’s Presbyterian Church recently said farewell to one of their popular younger members, Mr. Loxley Jensen, who was superintendent of the main Sunday school.
