There were a large number of seamen present, as there were several ships in port, and all thoroughly enjoyed the entertainment provided for them. Those who contributed items were Mrs. Treacy (songs) and Miss Hazel Martin's pupils (dances). Some of the visitors gave great pleasure with songs also, and community singing was enjoyed by all. Supper was served by the ladies' committee, and the singing of the National Anthem brought a very happy time to a close. Dance for Cathedral Fund.
