Transcript
The annual ball of this old-established club was held at the Castle Hotel, Windsor, on Thursday last week, and once again the evening was a great success. Dancing commenced at 8.30 p.m. and finished at 2.30 a.m. About 120 dancers sat down to an excellent supper supplied by the hotel management at 11 p.m., during which carnival novelties were distributed to all, which added to the “fast and furious fun” of the evening. The ladies were presented with small souvenir fans. Messrs. V. H. Hobbs and W. R. Smith ably carried out their duties as M.C.’s. The success of the evening was largely due to the untiring efforts of the Club’s Hon. Secretary, Mr. J. W. Tull, who must be more than satisfied with the result of his efforts. Parties came from London, Slough, Uxbridge, Eton and Windsor. Mr. Hugh Kendall’s augmented orchestra excelled themselves with their most enjoyable selections.
