The programme of national and faucy toe-dancing was on this occasion provided by Miss Hazel Lee's pupils, and was an especially fine programme indeed, the variety of the items and the uxcellence of the dancing earning repcated rcalls, while the very attractive and artistic costuming for the several Menis was much appreciated. The Pipe Band played a number of .selections, and Pipe-Major Lawson piped for the national dances. Mr W. J. Key was a very efficient M.C. Chieftain M.
