MRS ROGERS’ DANCING CLASSES.
A most successful dance, held in Hanaa’s Hall, closed Mrs Rogers classes, last Wednesday evening l . Over eighty ladies and gentlemen, were present. The hall, decorated with greenery, flags and wild clematis, by Messrs Croft, Bleakley, Mackley, Ross, Brown, Young, Smith, Manson, Gordon and Wesney, deserved the admiration it received. The floor was in excellent order, and the dancing, under the superintendence of Mrs Rogers, assisted by Messrs Bleakley, Young, Croft, Mackley and Smith, was kept up with unwonted spirit from eight to one o’clock. The assembly separated after joining hands to the music of Auld Lang Syne, played by Mr Kingsland, organist of All Saints. At this dance there were no “ wall flowers,” owing, no doubt, to the charming appearance of the ladies present. Amongst these we noticed?
