l, GOLF CLUB FAREWELL GATHERING. (“Times-Age” Special.) The official match set down for Saturday by the Featherston Golf Club was cancelled out of respect to the memory of the late Mrs Saxton, moth-er-in-law of Mr H. R.

Card (president) referred to the long association of Mr Allen with the club both as an official and player, and on behalf of the members, he made him a presentation of a useful article to remind him at all times of the friends he was leaving behind. Mr Allen thanked the members for their gift and the president for the kind thoughts expressed. He said that he hoped that opportunity would be afforded him on a future occasion to meet them all again. Service Club Euchre Party.
