Mrs. Sefton and Miss N. Seftou, and a committee consisting of Messrs. Deck, Parker, Waites and Herbison, conducted a very successful dance at Okahukura in aid of the funds of the local hall. The building was crowded, and a happy time was spent by everyone. Mr. H. Ellingham provided the music, and extras were played by Miss M. Domet and Mr. W. Winterbottom. Mr. C. Parker officiated as M.C. Forty guests were present at a com-ing-of-age party at Kaitieke, given in honour of Miss Buzbidge by Mrs. Wilson. A most enjoyable time was spent, and the guest of the evening was the recipient of many practical felicitations.
