VALEDICTORY.

PRESENTATION TO NURSE GREEN. To mark their appreciation of the valuable services rendered in the past three years or so by Miss Green, the Dental Clinic nurse (who is under transfer to Masterton), the executive committee appointed by the. various school committees, organised a farewell social, says the “Waipa Post.” This eventuated at the Borough Council Chambers, when, despite tho very wet AA-eather, practically every school dis-• trict served by the clinic was represented, Avhile the teaching staffs of the local school and a few of Miss Green’s friends Avere also present. A musical programme Avas contributed to by Miss ButterAYorth (songs), Miss Manson (piano), and Mr J. Papesch (saxophone and piano items). Several eujoyable • parlour games were played. Opportun- . ity Avas taken during an interval by His ( Worship the Mayor (Mr C. G. Downes) to present Miss Green with a beautiful afternoon tea set of Shelley china, as a tangible recognition of the gbpd she has done and the goodAA’ill.a*e lias A gained in all parts of the district by -A her clever Avork, tact and conscientious- -- ness. Mr DoAA’nes. said the district coil- ji sidered itself fortunate in having -agp dental clinic established here, so thatV%' the children of Te Awamutu and neighbourhood may have the best of. dental**** treatment at a period AA’hen it is most needed, but the people also had been especially fortunate in liaA’ing a lady of Miss Green’s qualifications in charge of the clinic. (Applause.) On behalf of the subscribers, he asked Miss Green to accept the gift, with all good wishes for her continued success.

After Messrs G. S. Clarke (eliairman of the Dental Clinic Committee), Mr A; J. Shepherd (headmaster of the District High School, and late of the LansdoAvne School, Masterton), Mr G. O. Jourdain (secretary of the Clinic Committee), and Mrs W. H. Wood (until lately a member of the local School Committee) had supplemented the Mayor’s congratulatory and eulogistic remarks, Miss Green appropriately replied, and, concluding, bespoke for her successor the same kindly assistance extended to her at all tinies. The company then joined in singing, “For She’s a Jolly Good FelloAV,” and an adjournment Avas made for supper, proA’ided and served by the ladies. The school teachers of Te AAvamutu and district also made Miss Green a presentation of a set of crystal glassware.
