The usual weekly meeting of the Catholic Club was held on Tuesday evening. The programme for the evening's entertainment was ' Municipal elections.' The proposals of ' wouldbe candidates ' were very instructive and at times amusing. The usual meeting of St. Mary's branch of the H.A.C.B. Society was held on Wednesday evening, there' being a fair attendance of members. As there is every prospect of a branch of the society being formed at Gore, the office-bearers decided to visit that centre on Wednesday, August 19, to give the intending members any information that is necessary. A very successful social was held at West Plains on August 12, in aid of the H.A.C.B. Society's -benevolent fund. Songs were g.vcn by Misses Kir van, Shea, MacMenamin, Mr. Byrrfe Mrs. Matheson, an exhibition of club-swinging by' Miss Mehaffev relations by Miss -Young, Messrs.
