A VERY fuccessful and sociable smoking concert was held last night at the Warrant Officers' Club, Blue Buildings, la honour of the home going costir gent and the new arrivals. Mr. G. South, RN, president, was in the chair, and there was a large attendance. In the absence of the band, a blue-j.cket from the Victor Emanuel named Joues exhibited what can only be considered phenomensi abilly on the plano. Me, Farrell, of H.M.S. Himalaya, scored a great success as "Ole Bob Ridley" in * Ligger song and dance. Mr. G. Vowles, a popular Hongkong amateur, came out in quite a new light as a dramatic reciter, in that most striking story of the Wild West, Phil Blood's Leap which he delivered with a power dereiving of the highest commendation. Among the Messrs. Bildger, Fuggan, Muillgae, Smlib, tainment were the President, the Secre ary, Griffiths and others. The Prestient, on behalf of the members, presented handsome souvenirs to Mr. J. Gregsen, the Secretary, who retires owing to pressure of other duties, and to Mr. T.
