March 12.—At the annual meeting of the Dalby Ladies' Croquet Club, Mrs. T. Jack was elected president. Other officials elected were: Patron, Mrs. P. Lalor; vice-presidents, Mesdames C. J. Thompson, and C. R. Bryant; secretary, Mrs. C. W. Savage; captain, Mrs. T. Smith; vice-captain Mrs. Cramer. Mrs. Jack consented to act as treasurer for the time being. The retiring president (Mrs. A. E. G. Campbell) in her report stated that at the close of the year the club was in a sound financial position. Thanks were extended to the secretary (Mrs. Savage), the lawn directress (Mrs. Shill) and to the retiring captain (Mrs. Starling) for the capable manner in which they had carried out their duties. The resignation of Mrs. M. Quirk was accepted with regret. New competitions will commence on Saturday and members also expect to take part in the Toowoomba croquet carnival next month.
