WAIKAWA.

A very enjoyable evening was spent in Waikawa on Ihe 5th inst., when the bacbelors of the district entertained their friends at a bali. As the evening was fine an exceptionally large crowd congregated from far and wide. Forty-six couples took part in the grand march, and the dancing was so well patronised during the evening that several dances were put on twice to allow all the couples to take part in them. Wybrow Bros. ' orchcstra rendered excellent music. Mr C. Wybrow proved an excellent M.C. The guests were entertained at intervals during the evening -with some very fine songs, etc. Everything good was handed round in a way very creditable to those who had this work in h&nd. Tlie only regrettable cccurrence to mar the pleasnre of tlie evening was a nasty cut Mr Stanley Dawson received in the hand w'hile opening a lemonade bottle. Fortunately he was able to resume dancing after receiving first aid at tlie able liands of tho local postmistress. Tbe badge of the R.S.A. was very much in evidenee, a large number of returned soldiers being, present. /
