Musical and vocal items and recitation and patriotic speeches were the chief items rendered.
Patriotic addresses by the Rev. Wm. Abbott and Mr Frank Fielding from Penguin were greatly appreciated, and loudly applauded. A good sum was realised, which will be devoted for patriotic purposes. The meeting closed by the singng of the National Anthem.
