It was a great success, "June" looked lovely, and had such a way of leading with her own accordion that she made us do our very best. Old songs were sung, mostly Irish, that were dear to all, and once June and committee sang together. When the singing was fin- ished the Kinettes served refreshments -- so good and so welcome.
