VALEDICTORY.
In view of her impending departure from Putaruru Mrs. A. Ibbotson was the. guest of the local Anglican Ladies’ Guild at a presentation afternoon tea some days ago in the supperroom of the Town Hall, which was brightly decorated for the occasion. There was a good attendance of members of the Guild, which through its secretary, Miss R. Strugncll, took the opportunity to present to Mrs. Tbbotson a silver-backed mirror as a farewell token of the members’ appreciation of her consistent support and help in the Guild work and as an expression of their wishes for a vciy happy future for her. On behalf of Mrs.' Ibbotson, who was greeted by the singing of “ For She’s a Jolly Good Fellow,” Mr. J. R. 0. Lochhcad responded. Afternoon tea, music by Miss M. Savers and Mrs. J. Barnes, recitation by Mrs. J. Rolfe, and finally the singing of “ Auld Lang Syne ” formed an appropriate setting for the presentation ceremony.
