TOOWOOMBA. November 16.

Big bowls of gladioli in shades of red and pink decked the main hall at the Returned Soldiers' Memorial Hall, when a bridge party was arranged by the members of the Laurel Bank Croquet Club in aid of the building fund. A buffet afternoon tea was served on the dais where the tables were decked with bowls of pink and blue flowers.

Mrs. Malcolm Sinclair (president of the club), received the guests. She was frocked in navy and white patterned sheer and added a navy hat and navy accessories. Mrs. Priest (secretary), chose a simply cut burgundy frock patterned in white.
