PRESENTATION AT FORDELL
On Friday afternoon a large number of parents and friends gathered in the Warrengate School to farewell Miss Clemauce, the assistant mistress, who, after a term of eighteen mouths at Fordell, has been transferred to a position at the Wanganui East School. Mr Harper, chairman of the School Committee, in expressing the regret of the district at losing Miss Clemance, eulogised the ability, industry, and tatc which had marked her work at Fordell. On behalf of the parents, he presented the departing teacher with a silver-mounted ebony hair-brush and mirror. Miss Clemance received from Winnie Sharpe, who spoke for the school children, a gold and amethyst brooch. The Tennis Club, of which Miss Clemance was secretary, presented her with a case of afternoon tea spoons and forks, the Eev. J. Charteris acting as spokesman. Miss Clemance suitably responded.
