Mackie turned over the meeting to Mr. R. H. Gray, who very capably filled the chair and ably conâ€" ducted proceedings for the balance of the evening. In his introductory reâ€" marks, Mr. Gray said the evening was a treat, as it were, from the ‘‘*fortunates‘‘ of the Society to the ‘* unfortunates."" His â€" humorous classification â€"~won a laugh but the ‘"‘treat‘‘ suggestion was taken with Scottish seriousness, and the exeelâ€" lent programme amply justified this expectation of a specially attractive evening. Dancing featured the evenâ€" ing, the best of music being furnished by the Caledonian Orchestra, includâ€" ing Messrs A. (Gordon and J. Bridges on the violin, and Mr. Cunliffe at the piano. The first vocal selection set a particularly high standard. It was u; solo by Mr. D. R. Twaddle, whose fine voice and effective rendition, made a decided hit. Mr. Twaddle won a very enthusiastic and hearty encore and his responding number was equally well received. There was a very general desire that this fine singer may be heard frequently at the Caledonian gatherings. Mr. J. Lidâ€" dell‘s fine voice was again heard to advantage and as usual he delighted all with his capable and expressive singing. Mr. W. Thompson was anâ€" other singer of outstanding merit and attractive voice whose selections were specially appreciated. He was enthuâ€" staistically eneored. Miss Harman deâ€" lighted the gathering with a very pleasing solo, in fine voice, that won very decided encore. Another much apprectated item on the programme was the solo given by Mrs. T. Twadâ€" dle, who won the heartiest applause for her talented singing and her gifted voice. In response to the rousing encore, Mrs. Twaddle favourâ€" ed the gathering with a second numâ€" ber that was much appreciated. Among the dances, there were several Old Land numbers that were specâ€" rally appreciated, as well as some atâ€" tractive novelties. _ _ The Cinderella Dance was a specially amusing item, all entering heartily into the spirit of this selection. The dancing waus so generally enjoyed that encores were the order of the evening. A very hearty vote of thanks was very enâ€" thusiastically, and unanimously, passâ€" ed to the Bachelors for the fine proâ€" gramme, the generous luncheon, and the allâ€"round happy evening, the moâ€" tion being made by the President and seconded by everybody else together. The gathering dispersed with the isingâ€" ing of ‘‘Auld Lang Syne,"" and the National Anthem. During the evening, President Macâ€" kie made reference to the expected departure of two valued members, Mr. and Mrs. Hall, who return this week to Auld Scotia. Mr. and Mrs. Hall were sincerely wished bon voyage and all happiness and success in their native land. They were also made Honorary Members of the Society, as an expression of the friendship and goodwill of the memâ€" bers.
