p. 10 · Read in the full issue
THE executive of the New Guinea Women’s Club said a reluctant fare well to Mrs. B. B. Perriman, a vice president of the club, at an afternoon tea in her honour at the Feminist Club Rooms, Sydney, on July 8. Mrs. Perri man hopes to accompany her husband when he returns to Fiji shortly. Mr. Per riman—well known to all New Guinea residents —has been in Fiji for W. R.
Carpenter & Co., for some time, and is at present on leave in Sydney.
The guest of honour was presented with a spray of orchids and showered with good wishes for the future. The regret of her friends at her departure is, however, tinged with some envy: no one who claims to be a Territorial! could watch, unmoved, in this wintry weather, the journeying of another to warmer latitudes.
Those present included Lady McNicoll (patron), Mrs. H. H. Page (president), Mrs. C. H. Maclean (vice-president) and Medames Adams, Foxcroft, Hamilton, McDonald, and McMullen.
