Dannevirke.
Dannevirke branch of the G.F.S. was formed m August. 1910, by Miss Whitawer (organising secretary). It began with 14 associates, 10 working associates, and 4 hon. associates, and 14 girls gave m their names as candidates. A weekly meeting has been held ' iwery Tuesday evening, except during three months last summer, when a short service m the church was held once a month m the afternoon, and afterwards the afternoon spent m games and outdoor amusements . the branch being entertained by one of the associates. This year we have tried to interest the girls m mission work, which led to a proposal that a sale of work should be held m September with the twofold objfect of helping mission work and buying a piano for the branch. The sale of work has been a great success, and the branch is now the possessor of a piano and clubs for club swinging, which the members enter into very heartily. We shall also have between
£8 and £9 for the mission. The meetings have been well attended all the winter. A. F. POTTS, Branch Secretary, Dannevirke.
