The attendance at the Toowoomba croquet lawns on Saturday, and Wednesday, the usual club days, was not very large. The interstate tournaments are now in full swing in Brisbane, and many of the players are away. It is most pleasing to note by the early results that the Toowoomba Club representatives are doing so well in the tournaments, and it is hoped that they will bring back some of the laurels.

Owing to the annual top-dressing of the lawns being done, the club will go into recess from August 31, for two weeks.
