AN "AT HOME" IN TIMARU

(From our own Correspondent.) .. A very successful "at home," arranged by Mesdames Whitehead, Venning, and Crowe, in aid of the Art Stall, took place in the Girls' Hall, Craigie Avenue, recently. The scheme of coloring was mauve, and shellpink. Three large hoops decorated with festoons of these shades, and silver tinsel were effectively suspended overhead. The many lights were shaded in pale pink and mauve, and the effect produced was charming. The following contributed to the excellent musical and elocutionary programme: —Mrs. Doherty, Misses E. O'Meeghan, P. Lynch, M. Emery, C. Flamank, E. Mathieson, and M. Collins; Messrs. F. Ryan, A. Wheeler, G. Mathieson, W. . Durning, C. Clarke, and Master Neil Collins. A dainty supper was served at small tables artisticaly arranged with spring flowers. Amongst the large number of guests were Rev. Fathers Hurley ,S.M. and Barra, S.M., and the Mayor and Mayoress (Mr. and Mrs. G. J. Wallace). The hostesses expressed their hearty thanks to all those who so kindly gave donations of money and gifts towards their stall for the sale of work on 24th inst., in connection with St. Anne's Guild.
