p. 36 · Read in the full issue

After having been connected with the Dubbo (New South Wales) branch of the Commonwealth Bank for some time, Mr.

Jim Twist, graduate of Dubbo High School, well-known footballer and popu lar townsman, will leave early this month for Rabaul, on transfer. Last week he

was farewelled at “Woonah” guest house, Dubbo, where a surprise party was ar ranged by Mr. and Mrs. E. Lundholm.

Jim, who has been staying at “Woo nah,” was genuinely surprised when he returned home and was ushered into the lounge room, where he was greeted with the strains of “Why was he born so beautiful,” and “For he’s a jolly good fellow,” sung by about 25 guests.

Dancing, musical items and a presenta tion provided enjoyment during the re mainder of the evening.
