SCHOOL BALL A GREAT SUCCESS The Onga Onga school children held their annual ball on Friday evening in the local hall. There was an excellent attendance of children and parents. The children, most' of whom were in fancy dress, had the floor until 9.45. During this time, they performed a series of eight folk dances under the direction of Miss Cossar. When supper was served to the children, the adults commenced their dancing. Excellent music for both sections was played by Les Anderson’s orchestra, while Mrs A. J.
