WELLINGTON CATHOLIC CLUB

(From an occasional correspondent.) The dramatic branch of the Wellington Catholic Club is at present rehearsing the comedy, * Oh, Susannah,’ which will shortly be presented in aid of the organ fund of St. Mary of the Angels’ Church. The debating branch is at present having a good season, and the debates are being well attended. Many new members are showing a marked interest in the work of this branch, and at the last debate, ‘ Should women enter politics?’ they acquitted themselves well. In an endeavor to interest more members in the work of this branch, it was decided recently to hold a series of Sunday night debates. Arrangements are now well in hand for the first of these, which will take place at the clubrooms between the club and ( the Hibernian Society on Sunday, June 28, after Vespers. Mr. Murphy, late of Invercargill, recently addressed the club members on the desirability of establishing a Hibernian Band in Wellington, and from the hearty response which he .received, it is likely that such a band will soon be formed. The cricket club had a successful year as far as play was concerned, but financially the season was not a success. In an endeavor to meet the deficiency on the season’s work, the club , has decided -to hold euchre parties monthly,, and it is hoped that members will give these their, patronage. „ v :■
