Timaru Catholic Club

The first of a series of “at home” socials conducted unde? the auspices of the Timaru Catholic Club was held in the St. Patrick’s Hall on Monday evening, the 14th lust. Everything possible was done to make the evening a success, and the gathering was at all times comfortably “at home.” The hostesses of the evening were Mesdames T. P. Crowe, J. G. Venning, and A. Leeming. The hall decorations consisted of floral embellishments and conveyed the pleasing effect of a huge drawing-room essentially in keeping with the occasion. Among those present were Rev. Fathers Hurley, S.M. (spiritual director of the club), O’Ferrall, S.M. (president), and Barra, S.M, Rev. Brothers Palladios, Eusebius, and Paul, and the vice-presidents of the club. The evening’s proceedings opened with cards and other games, after which a pleasing musical programme was contributed to by Misses T. O’Sullivan and M. Young (pianoforte duet), Miss Meehan, Brother Eusebius, Messrs. R. J. Cuddon-Large and J. Fouhy (songs). Miss Dennehy was accompanist. After supper, prepared by Mrs. J. P. Leigh and Miss McAteer, the social was continued, the music being supplied by Mr. T. J. O’Connor’s orchestra.
