TOOWOOMBA, September 13.

BOWLS of Iceland poppies and sweetpeas in multi-colours were effectively arranged about the club house, where the president and members of the Laurel Bank Croquet Club held their monthly bridge party this afternoon in aid of the building fund. About 50 people attended.

The president (Mrs. Malcolm Sinclair) featured a frock of Havana brown cereal crepe, which was fashioned with satin panels in the front of the skirt. With it she wore a toning brown summer felt hat and brown accessories. Mrs. P. S. Priest is the secretary and Miss M. Rowe the treasurer.
