HITHER AND THITHER

Beautiful Dinnerware A Spode dinner set in Nettleship's I window is attracting much attention. To those who love beautiful dinnerware, this set with its pale, green and cream colourings with floral spray design, the unique style, will greatly appeal.* Plans for W.C.T.U. Convention The annual Dominion convention of the Women’s Christian Temperance Union will be held in Wellington on March 15. Delegates will be entertained at an evening reception, a peace meeting to be held the following night, and at an afternoon there will be a special address given on social and moral hygiene . Gift Party Miss Margaret Hine hostessed a jolly gift party at her home in Victoria Avenue on Wednesday, in honour of Miss Mollie Blyth, whose marriage will take place next week. The guests brought along gifts for the future home of the bride-to-be. Knee Rugs If, for the purpose of "travelling light,” a knee rug is carried instead of the usual full-sized rug the small wrap may be made more serviceable in the following way. Stitch a few large press-studs, about the size of a shilling, to the sides of the rug so that they may be clipped together if necessary. When used in a deck chair or in the train the rug may then be fastened comfortably round the knees and feet, although it is not large enough to fold over and tuck in. The studs may be fastened or unfastened quickly and easily, but they are strong enough to prevent the rug from blowing open in a wind or slipping out of place at the least movement of the wearer. # » * * Pantry Party Mrs. W. L. Young, Hatrick Terrace, entertained a number of friends at an afternoon gift party in honour of Miss Arnie Molloy, who is to be a March bride.
