THAMES OLD GIRLS’ REUNION
The Old Thames Girls* Association held a very successful reunion in the Methodist Hall, Pitt Street, yesterday afternoon. An address was given by the senior nurse of the St. John Ambulance Association. Mrs. Smith, one of the oldest members, sang “The Song That Reached My Heart,” Mrs. Offer sang “Mother Machree,” and Mr. Brough sang “Friend o’ Mine” and “The Blind Ploughman,” and the large audience joined in the refrains.
The 61st anniversary of the opening of the Thames goldfields occurs this month, so it was decided to forward £lO to the Mayor of Thames in aid of a fund for disabled returned soldiers. A number of new members were enrolled.
