Mrs "Walter Johnston has issued a num ber of invitations to a Progressive Euchre party for next Saturday evening, and Mrs Ed. Brown, jun., has also issued a number for the same thing on Friday evening.
We have now at least one large ball in prospect, that of the Star Boating Club, which is to take place on the 12th of July. I believer there is some question as to where it shall take place, Thomas' Hall having proved quite inadequate for the purpose last year. The Drillshed or rather Garrison Hall, is talked of, but there is a good deal of expense in connec tion with this, and the floor there is never

good, no matter how much cr,ro is bestowed upon it. However, it seems a question of room, not floor, so that we may fully expect to be invited there —and, after all, it will only be one more testimony of the popularity of the Star Club's Balls. Violet.
