IN MEMORIAM - EVALINE MARY SWIFT

It was with feelings of the profoundest sorrow and regret that the news of Mrs. Swift's death, which took place on Friday evening, May 16th, was received in these parishes. Mrs. Swift had only been ill for a fortnight and, although for some days her condition had been critical, the fact had not been generally realised and the news of her death came to most people as a painful surprise. For Mr. Swift the deepest sympathy is felt.

IN MEMORIUM - JOHN HENRY McDONALD

EDUCATIONAL

The outing of the Badsey choir has now become a fixture
So the last one they have just enjoyed these lines will try to picture.
'Twas when at midnight's witching hour the muster-roll was sounded
We started off upon our tour and sleepy thoughts confounded.

'Mongst this gay and happy party were some heroes of renown,
He of the cigar was there as tho' no troubles had he known,
And Jolly Jarge and Bill were there, so were the lusty Twins,
And some who on that glorious day accomplished famous things.
