ENTERTAINMENTS.

KITTY’S NTGHT OUT.

Kitty, the delight of many men’s hearts is to have a night out ou Tuesday next. All bowlers love to “kiss” kitty, for which they receive a mark of recognition, and remain “alive” when otherwise they might be “dead.” To be near Kitty is the principal aim in these men’s lives. On Tuesday night in the Town Hall, members of (ho Bowling and Croquet Clubs will hold a dance for which function very careful prepara (ion is being made. T( is the intention to offer the public a most enjoyable night’s dancing at a very moderate cost, the arrangements for music and supper being in specially good hands. For the benefit of non-daneers, it is to be arranged that the stage be made cosy and comfortable, and a euchre party provided, for which, very good prizes have been donated. The hall, of course, will he decorated befitting the. occasion, and although the prices of admission are very moderate, the bowlers are de termined that this function shall compare favourably with those of other sports bodies. Admission: double ticket, 5/6; gents, 3/6; ladies. 2/6. HUNTING BTG GAME IN AFRICA.
