. (From an occasional correspondent.) April 19. The first of our winter socials was held in the Catholic Hall on Tuesday evening, and, notwithstanding the inclement weather, the -hall was comfortably filled. The arrangements were capably carried out by Mr. M. J. Lyons (secretary) and the ladies’ committee. ■ The marriage of Miss M. Curtis, eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Curtis, of this town (formerly of Maharahara), to Mr. G. Adler, was solemnised at St. Michael’s Church, on Wednesday by the Rev. Father Cahill. The bride was prettily attired in a white duchess satin with wreath and veil, and was attended by her two sisters and niece as bridesmaids. Mr. and Mrs. Curtis afterwards entertained a large number of guests at Morgan’s Tea Rooms. The happy couple subsequently left for Auckland and Rotorua, where the honeymoon is to be spent. Mr. T v Cotter, who has been a valued member of this congregation for the past four years, has recently taken his departure for Hastings. Mr. Cotter has always taken a keen interest m Church work, and his loss to the parish will be greatly felt. On Sunday morning* after the first, Mass the Rev. Father Cahill, on behalf of the congregation, presented Miss Cotter, who represented her father, with an illuminated address, in which tribute was paid to Mr. Cotter’s "zeal for the progress of the Church, and to Mrs. Cotter and family! for their aid and assistance in all matters appertaining to the welfare of the parish. °
