CIRCLE EVENING SPENT AT EXHIBITION

The “Every Other Wednesday Circle” of the Pioneer Club spent its usual fortnightly evening this Wednesday in a visit to the Women’s Court at the Centennial Exhibition. There is so much in the court of interest to the circle, which combines many varied interests, that it was felt wise to take the’ opportunity of finally inspecting the' exhibits. The idea of members combining to spend the evening in this manner proved very successful, and a most enjoyable time was spent. Some ’ of the members attended the lecture in the demonstration hall of thb court, others watched Miss Jones demonstrating the making of pottery and all spent much time inspecting all the displays. Afterward, supper was served in the committee room. Miss F. Woodhouse, president of the circle and Miss V. Dawson, secretary, with whom the idea of the visit originated, acted ar. hostesses, and Mrs. E. T. Moore, a vice-president, thanked them on behalf of members. Among those who took part in the visit were Miss I. Edwin, Mrs. A. S. Mitchell, Mrs. J. Thornley, Mrs. J. Weir, Mrs. Dickison, Miss J. Forsyth, Mrs. D. Anderson and Miss Anderson, Mrs. W. Duncan, Mrs. G. Hill, Mrs. J. E. Dawson, Miss M. Wilson, Mrs. Garrard, Miss R. Harvey, Mrs. M. E. Gillman, and Miss Bitossi.
