embers of the Toowoomba Croquet Club gathered in the club pavilion at the afternoon tea interval on Saturday afternoon for a specially arranged tea party at which the guest of honour was a fellow member—Miss Clara Weymouth. They took the opportunity of wishing Miss Weymouth bon voyage on the eve of her departure on a trip overseas, and presented her with a small travelling gift and a floral bouquet. The official hostess at the party was the president of the club, Mrs. R. H. Carlisle. She was assisted by the secretary, Mrs. Nelson Fox, the treasurer, Mrs. Binnie and by other members.
