The final best of the Indies lawn tennis handicap was played that afternoon, on the conclusion of which nearly the whole of the community assembled at the Pavilion. Mr. R. H. Brace, in a few well-chosen words, called the attention of thous present to the long-felt want of such a building and expressed great pleasure la having been called upon to assist at the opening ceremony and hoped that it would prove a boon to the lovers of good healthy exercise, and to the members of the Kalangan Lawn Tennis and Cricket Club. The Pavillon was then formally opened by Miss Carrall who proceeded to distributs the prizes. Mrs. Soepson Was the winner of the ladies' handicap while Mr. W. H. Wallace carried off the hours in the sterner división. The latter appropriately expressed hle gratification at being the winner of such a handcome silver cup and from the fact of having received it from a lady, it would be valued all the more highly. The ceremony was then brought to
