There was a good attendance at the Dalby Croquet Club on Wednesday evening when members of the Club arranged a euchre party to benefit the Mile of Pennies Fund being conducted by the Dalby Ambulance Ladies' Committee. The club members were assisted by members of the Ladies' Committee, and a dainty supper was served. Mesdames C. W. D. Savage and E. J. Starling had charge of the door, and Mr. J. Flynn supervised the euchre. The euchre prizes were won by Mrs. C. Bryant 1st, and Mrs. E. D. Slaughter 2nd, in the ladies section, and by Mr. Booth 1st, and Mr. A. Frame 2nd, in the men's section. Mr. J. Waldron was the winner of a trophy. As a result of the evening £16/1/- will be handed to the fund.
