A very pleasant evening was spent on Saturday at Court-hill Schools in connexion with this society on the occasion of the inaugural social evening of the spring session. Tea and coffee were served, and the Court-hill string band agreeably performed selections under the ''bâton'' of Mr. G. F. Wates. A small choir, under the direction of Mr. F. W. Collen, rendered the well-known and amusing glees, "There was an Old Woman" and "Jack and Jill." Miss F. Doughty was well received for her singing of "Who'll buy my Lavender," and another item, "[[The Groom's Story]]" (by [[Arthur Conan Doyle|Conan Doyle]]), recited by Mr. [[Walter James]], proved highly entertaining. Mr. Charles Volcard greatly amused with a clever display of paper folding and shadowgraphy.<br />
