Suva, Feb. 9.

A N important event in the history of the Tavua goldfield took place rec ently when a newly constructed social hall was opened by Mr. E. G. Theodore.

This fills a long felt want at the field.

It is a commodious building of two storeys—the top floor being a ballroom, and the lower a “talkie” hall, equipped with up-to-date plant. The theatre has accommodation for 150 persons in chairs and 250 on forms.
