ST. JOSEPH'S LADIES' CLUB, DUNEDIN.

A lively interest is being taken in the advancement of St. Joseph's Ladies' Clubhand the executive committee, elected at. a general meeting., some few weeks ago, has shown praiseworthy energy in the reconstruction of the club. Already there are 85 active and several honorary members enrolled, a number which is being steadily added to. As funds accumulate, it is intended to . refurnish the. clubrooms and to effect improvements generally tending to add attractiveness to the club's pursuits, and to the enjoyment of its members. One of the principal objects of the club is to provide a meeting place and entertainment for Catholic girls engaged in the city, and who, of . necessity, are living away from their own homes. By becoming associated . with St. Joseph's Ladies' Club, and attending the weekly gatherings of the members,; an -opportunity is afforded those who may be strangers to Dunedin of becoming acquainted with their co-religionists, and profit by their helpful influence. Meetings of the club members are held on Wednesday evening of each week, when varied, but essentially social, : programmes are carried out; and on these occasions a cordial welcome is extended to all Catholic girls who care .to : attend. The club is happily possessed of considerable musical and elocutionary talent, and cf which the best advantage is taken. In. this particular, alone, there is an excellent opportunity afforded to those so inclined to acquire a useful and pleasing accomplishment. . %
