AMUSEMENTS

GRAND DANCE AT RUNANGA. On Friday evening next, a Grand Dance will be held at the Miners’ Hall. Runanga, under the auspices of the Runanga organisation which are promoting the “Argus” Machine Fund. The dance, which will start at 8 p.m., will include both modern and old time numbers, and there will also be various novelty dances, for which the Committee are offering good prizes. The floor is perfect, and the music will be likewise, while the admission charges are within the reach of all, viz., ladies Is, gentlemen Is 6d. It is expected that there will be a crowded attendance on the occasion.

THE MOVIE BALL. As it draws nearer the Movie Ball, which next Tuesday is sure to fill the Town Hall with a remarkably picturesque throng, is exciting the imagination and taxing the ingenuity of a host of people. They are devising their impersonations of famous screen folk, especially for the contests in which prizes maj' be won. Many novelties will be introduced, and attractive prizes offered for the following impersonation contests should assure the gaiety of the function: As-taire-Rogers, £2 2s; Laurel and Hardy, £1; open contest, £l. The Marina Orchestra has been engaged to play special movie tunes, and delicious supper at the “Cafe Continental” should make the occasion a memorable one. From all parts of the West Coast, dancers are expected on this occasion.
