TITIRANGI GARDEN PARTY.
Auckland Maori Girls’ Hostel Fund benefitted to the extent of £24 as the result of a Garden Party held by Titirangi Union on Saturday, November Otii The garden of Mrs. Macfarlane’s “Houston the Hill” provided an exquisite setting ; the croquet lawn made a splendid platform from which a group of Maori girls charmed the large audience with Maori action songs and hymns. Cake, Sweet and Noverty Stalls did a lively trade, the S.S. children fluttering like bees around the home-made tolTee, turkish delight and other toothsome morsels now rarely seen. The President, Miss A. M McLay, introduced the District President, Mr>. J. W. Long, to a large, keenly-interested audience. Mrs. Long told of the effort made by the W.C.T.U., assisted by branches throughout the District, to create a Christian Home for Mnori girls who now work in city lactone , and elsewhere on essential work.
