OLD-TIME DANCE

LABOUR PARTY DANCE Old-time dancing such as D’Alberts and waltzes will be enjoyed at the O’Neill Street Hall, Ponsonby, this evening under the auspices of the G.rey Lynn Labour Party. Paltridge’s Orchestra will play and have an unusually fine programme of the newest music timed to suit oldtime dances. The floor of the hall is excellent for dancing and a happy evening is assured. A hard-up social, with prizes for the best dresses, will be held next Wednesday evening, the proceeds being devoted to the national campaign fund.
