WEBBY’S CLUB RECEIVES OVERSEAS GIFT
Men of the Navy and Merchant Navy received a great welcome when they visited Webby’s Club during the weekend, the band playing special numbers as a small gesture of appreciation for the noble work carried on by these men. The Air Force and Army were well represented. The members of the club presented a. mascot to the men of the Divisional Signals, this being received, with loud cheers and applause. A beautiful gift has arrived from overseas, a token of appreciation from, a soldier who enjoyed the hospitality that Webby's Club extends to all men of the fighting services. This gift is a solid brass gong, suitably inscribed.
On Sunday the rooms were patronized by the men on leave, and after tea had been served by the members, dancing was enjoyed, music, as usual, being provided by well-wishers of the club. The girls wish to thank all those women who each week bake such a delicious variety of cakes and savouries. They also wish to thank the anonymous donors of two padded seats. •‘Work for Victory” is the slogan at Webby’s Club, which is open from 7 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays, and
