Camp Entertainers
SOCIAL AND DANCE FOR BATTERY. The men of the 22nd Ant-Aircraft Battery were entertained recently by the executive committee of the official camp entertainers. The men of the battery always make the hall very attractive with coloured streamers for these functions. The music was supplied by the hosts, gay numbers beingplayed by Sergeant Elston and his
party. Sergeant Elston was also responsible for two solos, which were enthusiastically encored. The pretty colours of the girls’ at tractive frocks, competitions, gay dances, all combined to the gaiety of the scene.
Misses Mavis Aulin and Pat Reade presented balaclavas for the men, these gifts being very much appreciated. A most enjoyable evening concluded with “Auld Lang Syne,” Captain Dunn, his officers and men, all joining in, then ■ the boys of the battery sang and cheered, after which all stood at attention while the National Anthem, was played. The executive committee wish to thank the Automobile Association, Mrs. Toop, Mrs. Bayley, Miss Wilson, Miss Mack, and Messrs. Chapman .and Winchcombe for providing cars for transport.
