A committee meeting of the Dalby Croquet Club was held at the residence of the president (Mrs. A. White) on Friday evening. Those present were Mesdames White, (president), Hoffman, Shill, Coutts, Starling, Wilson, Irvine (treasurer), and C. W. D. Savage (secretary). Apologies were received from Mesdames Lalor, J. Shaw Thompson, Smoothy, and Welsh. The president asked the members of the committee to stand in silence for one minute out of respect to Mrs. W. Quirk whose husband had died earlier in the week.
