The room was beautifully decorated with the silver bells and festoons and the crests of the RAOB in gold, painted by Brother Long. Brothers Glover and Hoblin are to be congratulated on their artistic designs in decorating the room. The concert proved a great success.
The programme was under the control of Brother Heal and consisted of the following: Overture, Brother Squires; songs by Misses Cleave, Crocker, Langbridge and Judd, and Messrs Dunn, Brother Hearn and Whitaker; Slip Dance by Brother Long; instrumental duet, E J Grant and Brother Heal; recitation Miss Adams; duologue Mr and Mrs Symons. After the concert a first class programme of dances followed, until the early hours of the morning, Brother Glover acting as MC.
The following ladies kindly gave their services as helpers at the refreshment tables: Mesdames Cleverdon, Snell, Lewis, Strudwick, Wicketts, Harris and the Misses Blight and Hoblin.
All the members of the RAOB of the Ye Kingsley Lodge that could attend gave every assistance, with the energetic hon. sec., Brother Waldron, to make the concert and dance such a splendid success. The singing of ‘God Save the King’ brought to a close a very pleasant night’s enjoyment.
