(Y "FEATHER.")

On Saturday week last members of the West Toowoomba Croquet Club entertained Mrs McKenzie prior to her departure from Toowoomba. During afternoon tea Mrs. R. Walsh, in the absence of the President, Mrs. A. T. Parrott owing to illness, asked the guest to accept a gift as a memento of her association with West Toowoomba Club. Mrs. Walsh was supported by Mrs. McLean and the members duly and musically honoured the guest.

During the week the final of the Singles Handicap was played, and I wish to extend on behalf of the President and members, congratulations to the winner, Miss Ryan, and also Mrs. Baker as runner-up.
