ANNUAL REGATTA DANCE

The kiosk was gaily decorated with balloons and streamers and trails of greenery. Delightful novelties had been arranged for the amusement of i the dancers, including quaintly de- ( signed and brightly coloured paper i caps, streamers and balloons. The | Syncopators supplied some splendid dance music. A happy thought inspired the setting of the supper tables on the cool verandahs overlooking the park and the harbour. Mrs. Goodison, the secretary, and i the ladies’ committee left nothing undone that could add to the enjoyment of the dancers and altogether the-even - ing was a great success.
