INGLEWOOD.

(From Our Own Correspondent.) March 21. Mr. P. J. O’Carroll, of the local branch of the Bank of New Zealand, haa received notice of transfer, at an early date, to the Whangarei branch of the bank. • Mr. O’Carroll has very many friends in Inglewood, where he has lived with his parents since childhood. He has identified himself with the forward movement in all branches of manly sport, in such a way that whenever it was known that he was representing Inglewood, either in a team or on his own account, all felt confident that Inglewood’s honor was in safe hands. Everyone who knows him will wish him well, and many older residents will be pleased to think that he will be in an office where another Inglewood resident, Mr. C. Thomson, is at the head of affairs—a further link with his old home, which all hope he will keep in pleasant memory and where he will be always sure of a warm welcome whenever he returns for a holiday.

There are many old friends and acquaintances of Mr. R. Fawcett who will be pleased to learn that he has returned to his old post in Newton King, Ltd.’s Inglewood mart, after being laid by on the sick list for quite a. spell. Speaking for himself, Mr. Fawcett says he is a good deal better than just “go-able,” as it is termed in his native Lincolnshire, though he hardly yet feels fully up to concert pitch. That he may soon be fully restored to health all who know him will hope sincerely. CATHOLIC SOCIAL.

The Catholic social held on Friday (St. Patrick’s) night in the Town Hall was a complete success. The euchre tournament, under the supervision of Mrs. Evans, was fully patronised, there being sixteen tables. The ladies’ prizes were awarded, first to Mrs. Henderson, second to Mrs. A. Boeock; gentlemen, first to Mrs. F. Gyde (who filled a vacancy in the male ranks), second to Mr. J. Burnip. For the dancing was supplied by Miss Curd’s orchestra. Mr. P. E. Chapman was M.C. The room was well filled, but not crowded, and the floor was in excellent condition, so that enjoyment was secured to all participants, and the dancing was kept up with vigor well into the small hours of Saturday morning.
