PONSONBY CRUISING CLUB

AQUATIC BALL * The aquatic ball held by the Ponsonby Cruising Club last evening in > the Point Erin Tea Kiosk was a very bright and successful affair. The kiosk in its beautiful surroundings is ideal for dancing. Koyal blue and white streamers and ' the club pennons were used very effec- ' lively for decorations, and an original note was achieved by the suspension of miniature yacht models. Balloons and chic paper caps were , novelties introduced during the even- | ing, and the music, supplied by the "Boston Band." wearing the cutest of red jackets, was greatly appreciated by the dancers. A very popular feature of the evening was the excellent claret cup, which was perhaps partly responsible for the very cheery spirit of the dance.
