GYMNASTIC DISPLAY.
AN ATTRACTIVE EXHIBITION. The display given by the members of the Girls’ Gymnastic Club at Te Awamutu proved very interesting, and served to show the splendid results achieved as a result of the course of instruction given by Mr 11. Holt, the club's honorary instructor. The display included exhibitions of marching and parallel-bar work, wand drill, Indian club drill and dumbbell drill, skipping, climbing the rope, pyramids, balance bars, overhead ball and tunnel ball, the whole going to show most effectively the advantages of physical culture.
Opportunity was taken to present prizes (medals) donated by the instructor and presented by Mrs A. S. Wallace. Miss Dorothy Irwin won the first honours in the senior division, with Miss Hilda Hallett, second. In the junior class Miss Ruth Wilts was declared the winner. Messrs J. and R. Wallace were the judges.
