Dannevirke

The Catholic social in aid of the convent funds was held on Wednesday evening, July 15, and was a great success, there being a very large attendance. The supper was provided by the ladies, and their management in this connection (says the 1 Dannevirke Advocate ') is to be highly commended. They were assisted in the waiting by a large number of gentlemen. During the evening the following items were rendered : — Recitation r(t Mr. Kelly ; songs, Mrs. Adams and Miss Finnis (2) ; duet, Misses Collins and Finnis ; pianoforte solo, Miss Terry ; Highland fling, Mr. J. McKenzie; dance, the 'Irish Washerwoman,' the little Misses Cotter and Ross. The dancing of these two little mites was loudly applauded. A comic sketch by Mr. J. Webb, of Pahiatua,_ proved to be a popular number. The committee, headed by the joint secretaries, Messrs. Pettit and J. McDonald, are to be congratulated on the unqualified success of the social, which should result in a substantial sum being added - to- the convent fund. -' " ;
