Monthly bridge party with sweet peas and stocks

Masses of beautiful flowers, artistically arranged, provided colourful decorations at the pavilion of the Toowoomba Croquet Club yesterday afternoon when the members of the club held their monthly bridge party in aid of funds for the Toowoomba branch of the Red Cross Society. Tea was served from a buffet decked with low bowls of pastel-coloured sweet peas and stocks. The guests were received by the president of the club, Mrs. W. Cooke. She was assisted by Mesdames K. Bedwell (secretary), G. B. Mackay (treasurer), and members of the committee.
