profusion of beautiful dahlias, asters and zinnias were effectively used to decorate the pavilion yesterday afternoon for the Toowoomba Croquet Club's monthly bridge party in aid of funds for the Red Cross Society. A home-made tea was served from a buffet decked with crystal bowls of pink charm dahlias. Mesdames W. Cooke (president), A. E. King (secretary), and G. B. Mackay (treasurer), assisted by the committee, organised the function.
